In this video I demonstrate how to play the intro/chorus and verse section of the song Unchained by Van Halen. This is one of the most iconic Van Halen songs in their catalogue and was featured on the album Fair Warning. While Fair Warning was not a heavy hitter for top 40 hits it is revered by many guitar players as their favorite Van Halen album due to Eddie's tone and creatity throughout the record. Unchained is a prime example of the raw power and energy that is Van Halen. I hope you enjoy the video. Thanks for watching and please subscribe!

In the beginning of this video you were taping and it sounded like "over the rainbow" from Wizard of Oz, that would be a cool song to play just taping.

@luvmuppets

Instead of chugging between the chords, I prefer to pick-scrape the low E string to the left to produce a “cascading downward” sound. Then between the next sequence of chords, I pick-scrape to the right to produce a “cascading upward” sound.

If you are absolutely unable to drop the E string to D, here's what you can do. for the drop part, simply bar the E and A strings at the 5th fret for the chug chug chug part. It's not quite the same but it will get you through the song. Except for the pre chorus where I'd recommend only playing the upper part and taking a drag off of your smoke at the same time! Cheers!

Holy Cow. Absolutely amazing. Marty your feel is just crazy good. That Bumble Bee is you, Brother. As always - another killer vid, and lesson. You're not only a great player... but a great teacher too. You've just got a way about you. And I could not agree more. Edward was a wizard, and his leads were magic. But for me... the essence of Edward Van Halen was his song-writing and rhythm playing. The lead work was just the icing on the cake. There will never be another. This song highlights a lot of what he was all about as a musician. Just incredible. I'll be working on this!

Shouldn't that guitar belong to Stryper? 😄

Forget the lesson, I want your tone!

If you can swing getting one of these Striped Series guitars in your budget, I highly recommend it. Wish I could catch your killer show in Alabama, live all of the way up in cloudy, gloomy Ohio. Good luck man, you guys rock and you'll totally kill it man. Excellent Unchained lesson Marty! 😁🎸👍🏻

Cool - I was always missing the 5th chug! Like you said, probably a mess up saved on album forever! There is rarely a "5" in rock n roll! I never liked the bumblebee version of the striped series. The original had a black headstock, and is buried with Dimebag. Kinda depressing. The white and black striped series one is the most accurate to the original first album version of the Frankie.
