Learn how to play I'm Bad, I'm Nationwide, as performed by ZZ Top released on the 1979 album Duguello. Another piece of blues rock guitar mastery by Billy Gibbons. There's two primary guitar parts to this song, both probably on his 59 Les Paul "Pearly Gates", a rhythm guitar that drives the groove, and a lead guitar overdub that plays the most tasty parts ever.

The lesson covers the rhythm and lead guitar parts up until the outro. I do cover the single note stuff in the outro including the speed riff he does in unison with the Bass. The outro has dueling guitar solo riffs between his Les Paul and what sounds like either a strat or Broadcaster on neck pickup. That's all in C minor pentatonic.
