Continuity mistake: Notice Marty's hair in the scene when he's playing "Johnny B. Goode." It's quite larger than when he says, some seconds later, "I guess that you're not ready for it yet." That's because when he says that, it's a recycled shot from the original BTTF, whereas most shots showing he's playing the guitar are newly made for BTTF2. However, Marty's hair is considerably longer in the new shots. (01:27:19)
Back to the Future Part II (1989)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Robert Zemeckis
Starring: Christopher Lloyd, Michael J. Fox, Lea Thompson, Thomas F. Wilson, Elizabeth Shue
After causing Biff to crash into (another) manure truck, Marty finally recovers the sports almanac from Young Biff in 1955 and burns it, restoring the timeline to its proper state. The DeLorean, which is flying overhead, is struck by lightning, sending it and the Doc through time. Thanks to the Doc's hind/foresight, he sends a telegram ahead to Marty's exact location and time, assuring him of his safety in his new location--1885! Marty immediately heads to where the 1955 Doc has sent himself (Marty) into the present (remember that this happened in the first movie), and tells him that he's "back from the future". The shock is too much for the scientist, and with a "Great Scott!", he passes out. To be concluded...

Answer: He is attempting to play the song "The Power Of Love" by Huey Lewis and The News. He was first seen playing it very well in the first Back To The Future movie when he was trying out for the school dance. Jennifer recognizes the song and is shocked that Marty who was so good at guitar was suddenly able to hardly play it.
