I always loved the jazz undertones he brought to Megadeth. Nothing against Marty, but Chris and Kiko (who I feel picked up where Chris left off) are still my favorite Megadeth guitarists.
I mean, wow, I can't believe how "original" some of his lines sound. 1:41 onwards is so cool - legato blues heaven! LOL! Other favorite parts: 3:34, 4:15, 7:31
this guy completely changed my views on lead playing and he moved my style to q completely different level. im forever grateful for that! rock on Chris! \m/
notice how his pointer finger is twisted to the side..Dave Mustaine mentioned that in his book called "Mustain" about how Chris wouldn't use his pinky and how that twisted pointer finger gave chris an edge at reaching frets..
I noticed Chris has several different amps but I also noticed he is playing thru the Karana amp..I own a MKII series and they are awesome amps and you can't beat the price for what you get..I do not work for Boss nor do I know anyone that is affiliated with Boss.
Truly! What's odd is that that "bent" first finger is truly a major part of WHY he plays his lines they way he does. Notice that? It's like an "anchor" of sorts. It's really amazing!
One of the best players on the planet
there are a loooooooot of "one of the best" players. But Chris is definetly very distinctive
I would say " magnetic"
Definitely one of the best
He's also very friendly and helpful.
He's definitely one of the best players on earth. The earth is NOT a planet. It's a PLANE
Just watched this, and I have one thing to say: if I had been there, I would NOT have kept walking! AMAZING! You kick ass, Chris!

Listillo Lordoc Kiko is the best, but I prefer Chris at his quirky best. He is the Django of Thrash.
Kiko is probably the best all round guitarist of Deth, but Marty and Chris really have their instantly recognizable phrasing.
I could listen to him all day long.
So tasty! His tone is just impeccable.
And this is why he's my all time favourite!
The Peace Sells sound
I know right, a lot of the scales heard here are the ones we know and love on Peace Sells

Bro 7:31 is soooo magic!

I really like Chris Poland style... more and more like him... more and more like it... really badass... really unique... really strong...
insane!!!
I love those insane licks where he hammer on and pull off then bends in to the same note he just pulled of.
Imagine if he actually used his pinky 😱

Hats off to you Chris!
god damn!!! crazy good licks
Alien left index finger!! He’s sooo underrated as a player by the vast majority. Dave should’ve called him back a long time ago. Incredible playing
5:38 - 5:43 we can hear the typical peace sells sound, in the beginning of some songs
y la gente pasa como si nada.... fanáticos de justin bieber!!

07:35 men that is soo awesome!

Beautiful tone and vibrato. Imagine if he had full mobility of his index finger.
Why what happened to his index finger??
He used ESP Japan pickups for the longest time, he could be using Schecter pickups
What pickups you using?
