Megadeth - Tornado of Souls - Guitar Tab | Lesson | Cover | Tutorial 

Thanks for your requests!!! Had a lot of fun with this tune! I watched some live videos, I noticed Mustaine grabs some chords with an upstroke. Sometimes he uses alternate strokes for the verse riff, other times I see him only using downstrokes. How do you feel it out? I guess that is the most important thing. I went with downstrokes with the whole song except for the intro riff. For the solo, he plays it different live. I cover the original take. And for this version, it didn’t sound to me like he does any crazy finger stretches in measure 198. I went with my gut. Have fun with this one guys! Thanks for your support!

You nailed it with the Metallica T-Shirt !!

That solo is just out of this world. 31 years later it still blows my mind at each listening. Great performance !!

This solo really exposed my weaknesses as a guitar player. Marty is so outside the box in comparison to most metal guitarists with his approach to solo writing and application of theory.

I've heard this solo played by so many guitar players and throug so many years... but, the difference with yours is the details in the quality of bendings, speed variations, the accuracy in the notes, Congrats, I really enjoy see you

The Metallica shirt killed me bro😂anyways,awesome vid!

Really really well done there. Tornado of Souls has got to be one of Marty's most difficult solos to play during his time in Megadeth and you pulled it off really impressively.

How much beautiful is this solo?!? I have listened it at least 100 times and still blow me away. Best solo ever. Marty is a genius.

Everyone's talking about the solo, and its certainly among the best...but how about that rhythm track! Complex, melodic, always changing, and Mustaine somehow manages to sing well while playing it. Absolutely astounding. Not just the skill to perform it all - but to also write this masterpiece.

I love the detail that he is playing with a Metallic t-shirt. Excellent job

You guys have no idea how many times I've watched this video already Jesus these solo is killing me, and the main riff I seem to be too slow on it by just a smidge

last edited: 2nd august [final update] im gonna try to learn this solo, will update [I LEARNED IT, and in full speed!!!] day 1: learned it till 3:43 mark, took me about 10-15 minutes and extra 5 minutes to be able to play it in 0.75 speed day 2: able to play until 3:48, my current goal is to learn the solo untill that mark in original tempo (or at least close) and then move on onto the hard part week2/day11: learned until 4:00 (with tapping), i got even more motivated thanks to someone telling me to update thank you archie day 13: can play it in 0.75 until 4:00 with ease, some parts are still hard for me in original speed but i can play most of it. remaining 9 seconds are hard for me, i kind of want to stop learning this here but i can’t give up now since i exceeded my expectations lmfao, to be honest i didn’t think i would get this far with learning this. it’s not perfect but im proud of myself since i thought i would give up on first or second day but i didnt. day 15: learned it until 4:02, 7 seconds left day 19: I FUCKING DID IT, I LEARNED THE WHOLE SOLO! i just need to learn to play it in original speed but yeah i did it day 20: my string broke while i was practicing this so i won’t be able to update/play until i change my strings day 48: finally changed my strings, i got my motivation back. only part i forgot was sfter 4:00 so it’s not that bad, i’ll now re-learn that part/remember it and after i get callouses again i’ll start updating frequently again! day 54: i re-learned/remembered part after 4:00, now i only have to learn the solo in full speed. im confident that i will do it by end of the summer day 61: so this is final day and update of this journey. i learned the whole thing in original tempo (but not every time i play it is perfect tho) and its a minute or less than a minute long depending on each try. i did change some parts according to my skill and i dont play the whole thing after 4:00 just some “key” parts so it still sounds like the original solo (and marty himself doesnt play that part the same every single time so i think its okay i changed it a bit). im proud of myself and im proud that i learned this. its not perfect, but keeping my skill in mind (and that i dont know sweep picking) i think i did a perfect job (i have been playing for 5 years). i’ll keep on practicing this so i can perfect it completely and hopefully in the future i will play it 100% like the original. thank you everyone who was interested in this, kudos to people who made me motivated to keep on going and who reminded me to practice. i hope this inspired someone to not give up. rock on \m/

Awesome!!!! Those outro riffs really rock extra hard when there are no vocals! And the solo was nailed of course! Nice touch with the Metallica shirt too lol!

The intro harmonics into that quick lick are just fantastic, super fun to play good exercise too. You really nailed the tone here, crunchy thrashy and gorgeous.

Bro, your t-shirt💀

WOW, out of every guitarist who isn't Marty, you have got to be the one who nailed this solo the most! And yes, that includes the actual guitarists who played/are playing with Megadeth. Awesome job! Heck, you're really nailing EVERY song you're uploading (in many cases, you sound exactly like the official recording). Also, your tabs actually look accurate (unlike most on the Internet). Thanks, RU-vid, for recommending this channel.

How about doing the Slash guitar part on Give In To Me by Michael Jackson. I don't care if it's a Michael Jackson song, the outro solo is some of Slash's finest work.

Thank you for incorporating THAT slide in the solo which everyone seems to miss or ignore.

Man, wordless to that brutal, fcking amazing job. It's really hard to see someone that make a "full job" rhythm and solo of this song. The feeling rhythm from downpicking to the amazing feeling of those amazing 1/2 bending... You got it. New subscriber here! Cheers from Brazil!

I am not a massive Megadeth fan, but this is one of my all time favourite guitar solos..

What a beast of a solo…and you nailed it perfectly! Amazing work there pal👏🏻

The best is the way you nailed Marty’s weird way of picking. Awesome!

Amazing cover. Thank you so much for taking the time to tab this out too. Love your channel 👏🏻

Playing Megadeth with a Metallica T-shirt xD

Shieeeeeet this is some brutal tune my man. Keep up with the covers, im really liking to see your channel grow :)

I've started learning this with the help of your playing and tabs. Your are the best dude! Keep doing! Thank you!

It's just so so clean and on point. The bends in measures 184 and 185 just before you sweep are an eargasm. I mean the entire thing is to be honest. I think i've watched this video a zillion times now. Absolute demon player.

I’ve seen many play the solo of this song, including megadeth guitarists but it never sounds like the one Marty played.. yours sounded clooosee.. Real kudos to you brother ❤️❤️

Awesome playing ! Thanks for the video, I've always wanted to learn that song in its entirety!

3 days 30k views? This should get x10 times that, every part is flawless, keep it up man you're what the world needs !

Finally!!! Had been waiting for a great tab for this masterpiece!!!

he committed the worst crime by wearing a metallica shirt and playing megadeth

Thank you very much for this tab! Just got to get my coffee and plug the guitar and I'm ready to start. 👊🏻

yesssss ive been looking through your channel recently to find this song tabbed and here it is!! hopefully ill be able to play that stretchy part to speed with my small hands one day !!😂🔥🤘

In my opinion, maybe the best cover of this amazing solo..... Congrats...

Thanks. This tab is really helpful and I have to hand it to you! You really nailed the whole song!

This track is epic ! Maybe the best solo of Marty ? Impressive job Man !!! Thanks you !!! Can't wait for the next !

One of my favorites songs of all time Perfect

Fabulous job, Mr. Tabs.

Those beautifully downstroked and palm muted sections bring tears to my little rhythm guitarists heart. 🎉

Five Magics next would be the greatest thing on planet earth dude

That is some serious playing to nail and remember all that 😮👌🏻

I dont listen to this type of music but my goodness that solo is absolutely stunning! Great work as usual Mr Tabs.

I never see solos so perfect👏👏🇧🇷 🇧🇷

The best parts of the vid are Master of Puppets t-shirt and the SOLO. You f@king nailed it. Shreded through it like a king \m/

Perfect as always!!!

Goosebumps! This song is my personal goal after coming back to guitar. Amazing cover. Joining your Patreon asap 🤘🏼

Outstanding! Every bit of it

I can't even imagine how much effort you put in this video man... thanks for it

You always make really good song with great cover, you are really good 🤘🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I LOVE that you put the “weooow” in at 3:29. Everyone misses that!

woah! This is the moment I've been waiting for. I'll learn this song rn

These videos are so helpful! I was always a bit intimidated when attempting to learn metal riffs and solos, but the videos that you make are a godsend - and having them on RU-vid, being able to slow the speed down and really analyse what is happening is amazing. Thank you so much for putting this together. Your playing is razor sharp. Nice T-Shirt btw - as far as I am concerned Dave Mustaine is Metallica... maybe that was your point?

Espectacular demostración, te felicito!!! Hermano póngase una franela de Megadeth por favor! Saludos!

One of the hardest solos to play and you nailed it perfectly!

Out of this world cover. Superb job 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

The solo is amazingly perfect

Cool T-shirt man!

You just nailed one of Marty's most epic solos. God Tier status achieved!

That solo was perfect! Good job and thanks for that video

God that solo will always be equal parts amazing and terrifying

This solo is so cool. Thanks so much for sharing it.

Can literally see your sweat in the fretboard jeez! Great work!

What a brilliant song and solo. I dont their music at all. Mr Tabs you smashed that solo!

One of my All time Favorite Tracks! Ever since you corrected "Holy Wars" I've been kind of stuck with the "Rust in Peace" Tabs. Not really sure if I wanted to keep going or wait for more like this. I think I'll wait Thanks \m/

Covering one of the most awesome tracks of Rust In Peace while wearing a Master Of Puppets shirt completely awesome 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

Your solos are always amazing damnnn

Youre legendary for these

it really is the perfect metal song, opening, fantastic, riff, 800kg, chorus based, verses, based, bridge, perfect, solo, amazing, outro verses, perfecr

Just had to put that string snap in there eh! Haha,that gives me nightmares too,great video Dude! Thanks for sharing!

great stuffs man. really loved your channel.

Solo section is great. Better than i thought. Very good👌🏻

I need to learn how to plant my pinky on the guitar like that, amazing playing.

Tanks for this

The tab I've been waiting for ever since I found out about your channel

Mr Tabs rocks!!

One of the most accurate versions of the solo I've seen on the internet. I think the two first pinch harmonics might have been a bit exaggerated, but otherwise it sounded great.

I'm happy to say that I can finally play the solo! There's still some work that needs to be done as I keep rushing the arpeggios at 3:29 and the lick at 3:46 is a little sloppy at the end but I'm happy with my progress

Best Tabs Channel on RU-vid!

Thanks bro. Started learning 🤙🤙💪

A hell yeah I was just about to learn this one

This morning I made the call The one that ends it all Hanging up, I wanted to cry But dammit, this well's gone dry Not for the money, not for the fame Not for the power, just no more games But now I'm safe in the eye of the tornado I can't replace the lies that let a 1000 days go No more living trapped inside In her way, I'll surely die In the eye of the tornado, blow me away You'll grow to loathe my name You'll hate me just the same You won't need your breath And soon you'll meet your death Not from the years, not from the use Not from the tears, just self abuse But now I'm safe in the eye of the tornado I can't replace the lies that let a 1000 days go No more living trapped inside In her way I'll surely die In the eye of the tornado, blow me away Who's to say, what's for me to say Who's to say, what's for me to be Who's to say, what's for me to do Cause a big nothing it'll be for me The land of opportunity The golden chance for me My future looks so bright Now I think I've seen the light Can't say what's on my mind Can't do what I really feel In this bed I made for me Is where I sleep, I really feel I warn you of the fate Proven true to late Your tongue twist perverse Come drink now of this curse And now I fill your brain I spin you round again My poison fills your head As I tuck you into bed You feel my fingertips You won't forget my lips You'll feel my cold breath It's the kiss of death

Awesome video 🤘🔥🤘 been jamming out to this one

every years i grap this solo for improving myself it worth any time thank you

Necesitaba estos tabs. Altos capos

Another perfect lesson as always. Still got the blues/ no more tears next? I'd love to learn them!

great tone and clean playing

I think one of the best version on youtube and believe me when I say I've seen a lots!

The Metallica T-shirt is because you use almost all downpicks

You did Dave and Marty a solid 🤘🏼 You're just missing the long hair bouncing above the fret board

Im here before 500k subs solid cover bro nice playing this guy deserve more subs🤘🤘🤘

Nice job Man!! This is Awesome! 👊😎

YES FINALLY

This is just the most amazing rhythm riff , I love it

Thanks so much i was just looking for this!

What an awesome cover for an awesome song! Great post 🤘🏻👌🏻

Pqp, tão bom quanto o Tesouro!!! 🇧🇷✌️

ROFL, love the end of it. This is always my biggest fear, when trying to pull off those crazy bends. I figure Marty must be spending a fortune on strings LOL. Great work man, all the best from IRELAND

Hey, I’ve seen a lot of your tabs here in there and I’m a bass player but I’m gonna subscribe to your channel because you’re doing some honestly good tabs

God damned, one of the best cover i've ever heared... perhaps the best. Thumb up !
