Sick Riffs

Originally staking their claim in the hair metal scene of the early-'80s, California's Tesla have time and again proven the longevity of their brand of hard rock.
2019 saw the release of the band's eighth studio album Shock, a 12-track belter which plays host to some of their most stomping riffs and catchiest hooks yet.
Guitarist Dave Rude joins us in today's episode of Sick Riffs to teach you the solo from the record's eighth track, The Mission. This one's quintessential '80s hard rock, wrought with tasteful bends and climactic melodies, and so a perfect opportunity for you to practice your feel and technique in unison.
