I just turn theory off and put my fingers wherever. Even if it sounds bad. *Plays an amazing piece*

I love how nervous you are, when you touch the back of your head, like if you were talking to your high school crush haha, it shows that you are a real fan. Mark seems like a really nice guy.

To be meeting and jamming with Mark Tremonti. Look how far you've come Tyler. Well done!

Clicked on this so fast. I’ve always been a fan of Mark. He’s an amazing guitarist and just seems so genuine

Cool dude. I admire his honesty - Hate's dry amps, likes having delay always, prefers to compose over improvisation. A lot of people will criticise those choices (pretentious players). He ain't pretending

Tfw Mark comes up with a better melody in 10 seconds than you do in 3 hours...

i love mark since his time in Creed. he has proved us that he is not a sell out artist. brokw down with major label and chose to go with indie label just to avoid being controlled by that shitty label. that's when you know music is literally your life.

Damn this guy is down to earth af

What a legend!!! Please do a video on that 6/8 thing he did there.

I'm such a Mark Tremonti fan boy, it's so sad. My wife loves Creed and I'm a mega Alter Bridge fan. Nice interview btw.

Dear God, man. You've played guitar with Mark Tremonti. Great interview, too! So happy for you.

For arguably the biggest guitar legend for modern rock of the 2000’s, Mark Tremonti is completely grounded and genuine. Class.

Great interview - Mark was clearly happy to engage and not just be asked the usual run of the mill questions 🙂

My favorite guitarist of all time for over two decades since back in his Creed days before anyone knew how good he was, I used to tell people he was a badass player back in ‘99 and people laughed at me, well well well! My favorite band has been Alter Bridge for a long time, ever since 2007 when I was sitting in the chow hall of my first duty station outside of Fairbanks Alaska and I heard the Blackbird album, which coincidentally has my favorite song of all time of the same name “Blackbird” ....great interview! The band Tremonti is also one of my favorite bands, the song have ANY bad songs!! Mark “The Tremonster” Tremonti is one of the most CRIMINALLY UNDERRATED guitarists of ALL TIME and I personally cannot figure out why

Agreed. Tremonti is Mark's best project by far.

so jealous! what an awesome meeting! been a fan of him since his Creed days

Mark is the man! So straightforward and down to earth, yet a truly elite player and songwriter. Not surprising that he's so well respected by the guitar community and music fans alike. You seemed pretty nervous initially(understandable), but it quickly became an engaging discussion. Thanks!

Honestly, in my opinion, Tyler's quality of interviews has skyrocketed since last year! I love the flow it has and the questions are making the interviewed artist think and reflect for a second, which is unlike most interviews they do! And this is the most comfortable and natural I've seen Tyler during an interview so far... and it wasn't even planned beforehand, so koodos for that too! Love it!!!

*WE'RE NOT WORTHY... WE'RE NOT WORTHY* Tremonti is just fantastic. Absolutely love his stuff.

Tremonti is one of my favorite guitarists ever. He inspired me back in the day and still does all these years later. I thought "What's this life for", as simple as it is, was one of the most beautiful guitar intros I had ever heard.

What an honour to be playing guitar beside Mark Tremonti!! 🤩 True legend 🙌🏼

That clean picking at 3:38. I have heard that bits and pieces before, it is one of the best sounds I have ever heard from a guitar. PLEASE PLEASE PUT THIS IN A SONG. PLEASE. Huge fan, love your playing.

I want someone to look at me the same way Tyler looks at Mark...

I don't think I've ever been able to relate to another guitarist as much as Mark.

My favourite guitarist and my favourite KZfaqr. Thank you for fulfilling this dream Tyler!!!

Tremonti talking voice sounds like pitched down John 5.. Also Tyler seems to like doing interview to PRS artists. How 'bout Mark Holcomb, Tyler? 😜

This is such an awesome video, I've met Mark a few times and managed to get a lesson and soundcheck hangout with him and he's such a cool guy!

His clean intro to songs got me to start playing guitar which is not normal at the place I grew up. Mark Tremonti

Wow, Tremonti seems to be a very humble and down to earth kind of person. Sounds genuine

He is so humble and down to earth, and this is what makes him the best!

One of the most underrated guitarists out there. Tremonster is a beast!

Awesome Tyler. Big fan of Mark. Such a humble down to earth dude. Bring on a Dying Machine!

Mark is a brilliant guy, talented and still down to earth, still very underrated in my opinion

Favorite guitarist of all-time from favorite band of all-time. Thanks for posting.

This is when music is a WIN!

best interview with mark ever . thanks. i have met him many times and he has always been very gracious.

Such a fantastic guitarist player. I love him

I have been a Mark Tremonti fan since Creed. I picked the guitar back up after almost 15 yrs of not playing and a lot of those songs were still floating in my head and I could get them through my fingers. He comes across like a regular dude and seems like he'd jam with anyone no matter they skill level.

I really enjoyed that, you asked great questions and mark tremonti is an amazing guitarist and musician and always seems like such a humble, honest and relaxed guy who was more than happy to give you his time.

Great musician and he seems like a really nice guy too. Also really cool to see an interview like this being done by a fellow musician, it comes across a lot more genuine, that you were asking questions that you really cared about knowing the answers to rather than just following a list of generic questions. Great job man, look forward to seeing more of these interview type videos!

Tremo's a fuckin sweetheart. First time Alter Bridge came to Aus. They did like a 4 song set with POD, Disturbed and a very ordinary Aussie emo band. They played second and my buddy and I ditched the gig in hopes of getting to meet the reason we picked up a guitar. I was pretty hammered by that point. But in the ally way, there Myles was. He jumps into a van with the boys and Tremonti pops out with a guitar slung over his shoulder. My mate called out to him and he handed his guitar to a fella and jogged on over. He had an good chat with us and really gave us the time of day. What a fucking guy.

"Tremonster "The Guitar God !❤️ No one can mess with him in riffing 🤘

Huge step up in your game! Loved this interview! Seeing you meet one of your hero’s was really cool. Can’t wait to see more!

Alter Bridge Rocks!

Thank you Mark Tremonti for introducing me to D5 (halfstep down ofcourse) Tremonti is king, el presidente, if he told me the sky was purple I'd just assume I've been wrong all this time.

A friend of mine, who is a pretty mean guitar boss in his own right, got to sit down with Mark when Alterbridge was in Texas and trade licks with him. Also got him to sign his guitar which had recently been upgraded with Tremonti pickups. He talked about what a nice and genuine guy Mark is.

Super excited for u Tyler. He's my all time fav guitarist!

I have seen many Tremonti interviews. This is a great one!

What a well put together dude, Mark Tremonti deserves the recognition he receives

Mark Tremonti has inspired me a lot with his music. Well done 👍

This is such a brilliant interview, thank you for this

This is damn sure a win! I haven't clicked on a link that quickly in a long time. I do not get all fanboi over celeb types; but Tremonti is a guy I'd go out of my way for. He seems like just a great human being, and he is damn sure a master of his craft. Well done Tyler. Props to you for getting the access and making it happen.

My own Prison was one of the first CD’s I ever purchased and I learned the whole thing on Guitar at 13 been a huge Mark Tremonti fan for the last 21 years

Humble Guitarist & Kind Human. Mark Tremonti 🎸🤘

He’s a very generous interviewed artist❗️and very humble and down to earth too

You must be on cloud nine right now man! Thanks for giving us insight with Mark, great interview!

Great interview. I'm glad you got to meet with him :D

One of the biggest underrated players in my opinion. He has great riffs for days,amazing tone,great live and also a great writer. I like that he uses a lot of fimger pivking riffs.Been a fan since My Own Prison. Tons of great riffs on that album. The major thing I learned from Mark was to be able to use more open strings in order to navigate the fretboard. Opens up a lot of options like bends into octaves or unisons. Also when he was showing how he writes riffs(same way I do as well from learning from Mark) In the article I read he said that he will place his hand down and just move 1 finger around to make different chords, But it also said that he would do that and detune the guitar to make otherwise impossible riff chords. I believe this was an article in an old Guitar One magazine. My warm up I even got from Mark. Taking a 3 note per scale lick but running quickly across 2 strings. Then hammer ons then pull offs. Then move down a string a repeat.

I Hate you right now! What a pleasure to see you meet this guy! This man is my hero!

Fantastic, down-to-earth interview.

The best guitar player of this generation is also the most humble! God bless Tremonti. :)

You two make a great music duo!!

My favorite guitarist of all time "Mark Thomas Tremonti"of Creed and Alter Bridge🤘🤘🤘

Good questions man! Looking forward to hearing more of the MT-15 and of course Tremonti’s new album A Dying Machine!

Awesome interview Tyler, great innovative questions!!

That's a great interview! Some of your best stuff is how well you can talk with all those personalities!

Creed is the reason my 10 year old self picked up guitar

This video is a music win for me. I’m from Dearborn, Michigan and Mr. Tremonti is a fellow Michigander. Always good to hear what Mark has to teach us wanna bees. Great job Tyler.

He is on of my absolute FAVORITE guitarists !! Wish I could Jam with Him.

such a cool guy love his solos

Mark is awesome a superstar and a genuine guy all in one. Would love to meet him. MT15 looks great.

Tyler meeting all these guitar heroes in one day, when most of us take decades to do so :)

Your officially the luckiest guy on the planet ! That just topped it off ! The whole time I'm thinking how lucky you were meeting all these prominent people .. then you met my favorite guitarist , song writer singer of all time ! Cheers .

SOOO EXCITED FOR THE NEXT TREMONTI RECORD

Mark is the whole reason I got into guitar. I was the drummer for 12 years and never bothered to learn any sort of guitar stuff. I hated the idea of having to learn scales and train my fingers and all that shit. But that was back when I was younger and had people play with. Now that I’m a working adult and I really only have time to myself after work I really can’t create music with just drums. So one day I walked into a pawnshop and bought an entry-level Dan Donegan “Maya” and have been learning a little bit more every week 👍

what an unbelievably cool guy! love him... the thing about Tremonti is that he just kept getting better and better through his career ... I think that he's the best riff writer out there today (in the genre). Great interview! hahaha you can see that you're supper exited about talking to the guy but you kept cool and did it like a fucking champ! way to go man! hope to see more and more interviews like that!

That was cool. Well done, Tyler and Bethany!

As always - thanks Tyler!

The guy comes up with the most unique melodies

Bro, I'd be Starstruck too. It's Mark Tremonti! Such an awesome interview.

mark is my idol. great interview

Great interview Tyler! Brain picking 101 w Mark Tremonti...doesn't get much better than that. Awesome.

That is the dream right there. Congrats, great interview ;)

Great interview Tyler.

Mark is one of my main influences, not only as a guitarist but as a songwriter. Awesome video dude, Love Alter Bridge, Tremonti, and yes, even Creed

wow great respect and the jam at the end. Lucky you Tyler!

Fantastic interview..well done.

Tremonti is SO cool, and watching a "habits" kind of video is the best thing that could happen to me today :D. Thank you for the awesome content, as always.

Cool stuff man! Two beast guitar players.

Rad video Tyler, great job!

Imagine getting to jam with MARK TREMONTI. So cool.

I like your interviews Tyler.

I been waiting for this

Yes! Mark is probably my top favourite guitarist and I am a massive fanboy of his work. He also seem the like most humble and genuine guy - probably equal with Matt Heafy. Also love how Ultimate Guitar turned one of the questions into an article haha.

Super jealous man! He is my hero!!! Seen him so many times live…even back in the 90’s with Creed He’s the gold standard in my opinion for musicianship…PERIOD

A Dying Machine is gonna be awesome! Mark inspired me to pick up the ax back in his Creed days.

My favorite guitarist!! Dude !!!

Great interview.

I discovered Tremonti's exceptional guitar playing back when he was in Creed. Not only is he a guitar genius and virtuoso, he seems like just a cool, humble and friendly guy. That amp head sounds awesome and would love for the chance to demo it one day.

My tone always has a little delay too love it man. Mark is badass!!Such a hard worker!!
