Megadeth: Tornado Of Souls Solo!
This is the biggie! The monster Marty Friedman solo from this Megadeth masterpiece! Using the marvellous Ben Eller transcription (but there was no way on Planet Earth I was getting it spot on!) Still, I had fun, not really played this since school (man, remember that?!) Using my Eternal Guitars & Pickups Murtaugh S Type - hope you enjoy, remember this is one of the greatest guitar solos of all time for a reason so it ain't perfect!

i cant get my guitar to sound like the main part. Someone please help so i can play this slice of heaven!
Wow very well done. Impressive
Very accurate, thank you for sharing
This album came out when I was learning guitar. I called it the DGB strings album. I had to quickly learn that rock was more than basic power chords. Great video
Oh yeahhh man, awesome band of their time. Great album so well put together just every song telling a timeline of one man's mission and experiences. You really did them such an honour to cover this song, thank you very cool...
Perfect!
No matter how many times I bring this up, I know everybody will likely agree with me on this that this is a masterpiece of the dual guitar work of Michael Wilton and Chris DeGarmo At its best, because eyes of a stranger is the one song I will consider the best masterpiece of their dual guitar shredding
Amazing bud ...you can barley tell apart the actual track and your sound ...well done
Spot on! I really enjoyed it.
Technically great. One of the best covers I've seen of this song.
Nice!! So glad they picked this for Unplugged
すばらしい演奏をありがとうございます!✨️感動しました!🏰🎸
Thank you for this.. loved it and all your others.
Awesome
Thank you Alex for these videos. I have always struggled with hearing the distinct guitar parts and these have helped tremendously. GREAT WORK. And yes, this solo is quintessential DeGarmo.
1:50 - the percussive stops aren't there.
This guy right here alex he plays all the songs perfect
You're the best i've seen on youtube covering these songs
Wonderful Alex.I hope don’t forget how to play these masterpieces 🤞
You’re left hand is amazing
Beautiful playing sir! An AWESOME album the the Ryche...
really great, incredible work - and I like the sound of your recording more than the original, it sounds more powerful! thanks for your work!
Spot the f on! Well done Alex
Wow..u got that feel😮😮😮
Still the best damn cover ever done.
5:23omg
What pedals?
helooo❤😂😂😮
The solo blazed ! The timing, perfect
Nice job.... This may already be in the comments but... I assume that's Wilton in the top frame and Degarmo below? Is that true for the whole video? Thanks.
Thanks for watching man! That’s a good question - I’m not able to rewatch right now but it sounds like the kind of mindset I might have adopted at the time! There may be some exceptions to the rule whenever a showcase bit comes up but I can’t remember 😂This was the days when I was limited to how many things I could show at the same time so I did my best to feature it all - just resulted in a bit of a busy watch 😂
How do you even get that tone?
Fantastic!
Damn!
This is the best cover on UA-cam for sure. Tone is nailed
This was really good. Thank you.
Well done. So good
Amazing cover guitar player and musician
El mejor tutorial! Gracias.
Absolutely perfect tone!
Holy moly! Freaking amazing!!
Spot on! 😵
Awesome!!! such a great song and you played it perfectly!!!!
Well done!!!
Tabs?
What a killer solo. Beautiful job nailing those very challenging parts. Great guitar harmonies.
Absolutely killer 👍
Great lesson, thanks
Great playing , incredible actually. You must love Queensryche as much as me. Nailed the tone and your transitions are so smooth ( I’m envious) . Thank you.
One of the best on UA-cam, while very impressive.Dude you taught me a lot
Thanks for posting this amazing guitar cover. One of their best tracks imo. You absolutely nailed it!
