Get the Funk Out


"Get the Funk Out" is a track by American rock band Extreme, released as the second single from their second studio album, Extreme II: Pornograffitti (1990). The song blends hard rock with funk-driven rhythm guitar, showcasing the band's signature style. For electric guitarists, it offers a great study in tight, syncopated funk-rock riffing and the energetic playing style that defined Extreme's early sound.

  • Canadian rock musician Pat Travers contributed backing vocals to the track, adding an extra layer to its recording.
  • The song runs approximately 4 minutes and 24 seconds, giving guitarists a solid full-length workout through its riffs.
  • The music video was directed by Andy Morahan, known for working with major rock acts of that era.

Amp

Soldano SLO-100

Nuno's signature amp on Pornograffitti, the SLO-100 delivers warm, compressed high-gain saturation that responds dynamically to his pick attack and volume knob control. Its singing sustain and tight low-end define Extreme's heavy yet articulate rhythm and lead tones.

Dunlop Cry Baby Wah

Nuno uses this wah for funk-inflected lead lines that add expressive character to Extreme's genre-blending sound without overpowering his core tube amp tone. The Cry Baby's responsive sweep complements his dynamic playing style and wide vibrato.

Boss DD-3 Digital Delay

Nuno deploys the DD-3 for ambient, spacious lead passages that contrast with Extreme's heavy rhythm sections, adding texture without digital artifacts that would clash with his warm Soldano tone. It's a subtle effect that enhances his compositional range.
