My Cover of "Holy Wars...The Punishment Due" by Megadeth. The guitar panned left (apart from leads) is the one that is played in the video. Hope you guys like it! \m/
Badass dude. You killed it. Holy Wars is one of the funnest songs to play on guitar. I learned it when Rust In Peace first came out and I still go back and jam it all the time.
Dude I don't know why you don't have a billion subscribers. You just played the end of the first Marty solo perfectly. Even though you had to play that one note an octave lower due to less frets. For some reason the end of that solo, and obviously the end of tornado of souls, were super freaking hard for me to get down. I'm obsessed with learning Marty's solos. My favorites to play right now are skin o my teeth and Lucretia. Edit: I forgot to mention. I always find it amusing that I have a way harder time learning Dave's solos. lol
I appreciate that a lot man, thank you! Marty Friedman is one of my favorite guitarists ever, I love learning his solos too! Lucretia is a lot of fun to play, I did a video on that a while ago and I remember that being super hard to get down. Thanks again dude!

Been a metal head for 20 years and ive just recently took a deep dive into Megadeths catalog (Metallica is my favorite band so i usually looked past them). This song being my favorite and you absolutely killed it. Excellent cover!
HELL THE FUCK YEAH, ma' man, GOD DAAAAAAAAAMN! 😨😱👏👏👏👏👏👏 You did a fucking amazing job, man! Absolutely AWESOME! Keep on doing your thing, man! DAAAAAAAMN! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
One of the best covers I have ever seen! Love your right hand technique btw. I've tried to play this song many times but I just can't with the right hand... Any tips or exercises to improve in order to play fast song like this? Thank you bro, keep rocking! 🤘🏼
That means a lot man, thanks! As far as right hand technique, I would say definitely practice the song at a slower tempo to get the mechanics down, and gradually bring up the bpm. That goes for the solos too, there is a lot of tricky alternate picking stuff throughout the whole song haha. Hope that helps a little! \m/
