In this lesson we look at the jaw dropping rhythm skills of Extreme guitarist Nuno Bettencourt, breaking down the main riffs to "Mutha" taken from their 1989 debut album. This track is a great example of the "Van Halen effect", with a riff that borrows both harmonic and tonal ideas from the classic Van Halen track "Unchained".

Great tutorial! Would love to see you adding tabs to the videos though, as the notation and references can be a little a greek to some, including me, lol

[@brucecampbellx]

Can we all just take a moment to appreciate the tone coming from that Mesa?

I traded my red Ernie Ball music man years ago and got more of a orange as I couldn't find the red. Great video!

Hi, Great video. What is the exact model of your guitar ? Is that a signature model ? Thanks.

[@SixStringAlliance]

Thank you. This is a 1993 Music Man Van Halen signature model.
