Nuno Bettencourt Guitar Rig and Equipment
Nuno Bettencourt may be a favorite among us shredders from his work with rock band Extreme. He has also played in other bands such as Mourning Widows, Population 1, The Satellite Party, his own solo projects and DramaGods. He is particularly adept at arpeggios articulated via string-skipping tapping. Currently he can be seen rocking arenas again backing up pop star Rihanna! Nuno is endoresed by Washburn Guitars, Randall Amps and Dean Markley Strings.
