He uses the string scratch as percussion and his leg and body movements are doing a harmony type thing to what he’s playing, almost like he is hearing a full orchestra in his head and playing around them . I’ve never seen anyone play like him . He also plays by ear so he has to be a human metronome 😂.

      Now that you mentioned it... It too have never heard anyone say they didn't like Van Halen.
      Like someone saying they don't like pizza or Ana de Armas' lips.

      My father is one of those people - hes an old head guitarist who thinks that “fast” playing is garbage, and totally ignores the mucisianship behind players like Edward, all he hears is the speed. So I drive him crazy by playing EVH riffs and solos all the time lol@@TenFalconsMusic

    I saw Nuno perform at the Portuguese American club in Hudson MA about 10 years ago. He was the pride of the town. He captures the spirit of Eddie so well. I’d love to see him on guitar in a new version of VH. R.I.P. Eddie, I saw VH’s last show ever at the Hollywood Bowl 10/15. It will always be the greatest rock show I’ve ever been to.

      Pretty funny. Although, Nuno is sponsored by Washburn.😮 The bigger question is, why is Washburn sending anything to Nuno that needs "set up" to play better? Honestly, it sounded like he was struggling with the lower action. Not having to "work his ass off" for every note comment hit home.

    5:53 never underestimate the game-changer that a properly set up guitar can be. It took me far longer than I care to admit to realize how important guitar maintenance is to the playing experience. I may never play like Nuno, though I'll be damned if I'm not going to be comfortable while I'm playing what I can.
