Bray 4550 (van halen) sounding

[Pat_rocks_and_rolls]

Hello i ordered a bray 4550 deluxe and i asked David bray to make it a Brown sound plexi. The main goal isn't versatily but getting the closest Van Halen sound possible.

Here is the first clip he sent me some time ago (serious things begin at 0:40) :

What do you think of this ?

I mean Unchained and ain't talking bout love are so close it's impressive.

I'll keep updating this when i'll receive the amp and i'll compare it to my friend's friedman BE.

I hope this will help people who are looking for this kind of sound.

A buddy of mine has a Bray modded Plexi....unbelievable amp.

That is one of the best VH tones I have heard. Usually, when people try to clone Eddie's tone they get lost in the effects and lose the subtle nuances of the amp. That sounds great without being overly "wet".

Really nce playing and really nice tone! But the stream sounds like 96k mp3? There are artifacts everywhere.

I enjoyed ripping some VH at the Bray booth at the LA Amp Show a few years ago. The guy knows his stuff.

Any idea what guitar and pickup is in the clip?
