Weekend Wankshop 114: Mastodon Sultan's Curse guitar lesson new song

twitter/instagram @BenEllerGuitars www.facebook.com/unclebeneller skype lessons: BenEllerGuitars Hey kids! On the episode 114 of weekend wankshop, uncle Ben Eller here is gonna give you a guitar lesson on how to play all the killer riffs in the new Mastodon song, Sultan's Curse! They debuted this song last week so i thought it would be a great idea to show you all how to play the rhythm guitar parts in this song. Sounds great, reminds me of their Crack the Skye era riffs, in a Once More 'Round the Sun package. Song is tuned down one whole step, low to high D G C F A D. Playing Jon Cooper of Cooper Amps' Les Paul with Porter Overdrive pickups. Playing through my Cooper Sport 30 with a Wampler Pinnacle providing distortion. Stay tuned for more from the new Mastodon album, Emperor of Sand, coming soon!!!

Thanks Ben! Would love a re-visit of this one. One of my favorite songs of all time.

Would be awesome to see a video, or videos, of the stuff you went over with Bill. This was the video where I first found your channel cause the tabs out there were so bad for the intro riff. I think it was the first riff where I scoured the internet for as many videos as I could find to use as a reference.

Curtis

Would love to see this too. Ben and Bill have saved us from bad break downs of this song. Glad they did because it is so fun to play.

Hey Uncle Ben if you ever felt frosty about doing a tutorial for The Czar it would be an absolute lifesaver. Thanks again!

More Mastodon lessons please! There aren’t a ton of actual lessons on YouTube. There are plenty of covers but hardly anyone actually breaking down the technique.
