Peace Sells by Megadeth: Guitar, Bass & Songwriting Insights

"Peace Sells" by Megadeth, from their 1986 album of the same name, features Dave Ellefson's iconic bass intro played with a wah pedal. The song's main riff, played by Dave Mustaine, is a thrash metal classic, showcasing his aggressive picking style. The lyrics reflect Mustaine's disillusionment with society and politics, a theme that resonated with many metal fans in the 80s. Chris Poland's guitar solo adds a touch of virtuosity to the track, solidifying its status as a metal anthem.

Once again I didn't bother to put in the palm muting notation as
it would take too much time. Still hope you will enjoy and learn.
