I saw this, playing wasnt too great, it had its moments, but tone was good, and the way that pickup cleaned up was insane!!!!!!!!!

Don't get too excited about how the pickup cleaned up, there was some channel switching going on there

yeah course I know that, but the clean sound was so warm! I couldve sworn it was a neck pickup...


when he went to dry was just awesome...
 
Re: EVH playing his new amp @ NAMM video

It was all cool and great and stuff........................but..................................................................................I cant wait till his next endeavor to say the same EXACT things.

That is he will say, " now these guy, finally got it right!"

Just remember all the other indroductions he has done to all his other products.
 
Re: EVH playing his new amp @ NAMM video

Sounded like Van Halen to me....no matter what amp he's using/playing.
 
Re: EVH playing his new amp @ NAMM video

Wow. As someone else said, it sounds like it's somewhere between a Soldano and a jumped Plexi, which is a good thing IMO.

...and is missing part of his tongue.


Like he said at the beginning of the 4th clip, he's no public speaker, which is why he experesses himself through the guitar.
 
Re: EVH playing his new amp @ NAMM video

Kinda dug the Kramer more.


Probably gonna be the next one he makes with someone!

I was thinking the same thing.... You kind of wonder after many years of playing in front of large crowds you'd think you'd get used to being in front of people... Maybe not....

I myself have huge stage fright.... many times i've cut myself off at the pass saying something in my mic in bars and stuff.... at my sisters wedding i froze at the mic...

but in some interviews from 20 years ago. even 10 years ago, Ed's speech and public personality was much different... every one changes i guess but makes me wonder whats up with ED these days....

There's a big difference between having to say 3 words between songs and having to face media and dealers at NAMM. eddie's a great talent. I love what that guy has meant to rock and roll. He's alright in my book. He was nervous and sure, maybe had a few blasts before going up. I just dont' care. He's got more talent that God and I love watching him play.

Haha don't be silly, it just added that little bit of Lew wisdom which should be in all threads to make you young wipper snappers think twice before having a dig at someone like Eddie Van Halen :smokin:

I agree......why the heck does everyone want Ed to be some spokesman or role model citizen or something???
He is a whacked out Dutch dude that did more for guitar than almost anyone. He is a highly talented person which is almost sure to be eccentric. Yeah i dont dig the money part so much as well, but whatever , it dont really bug me anyway. no one is forcing me to buy anything.

That being told i think this was the coolest axe he ever played. And the best sounding one as well. IMHO as always!
im telling ya this is gonna be the next one he copies!:banana:

The 5150 is so hot, look what EBMM did to it, all eds playing and the LOGO are GONE...



And yeah, theres a reason Ed isnt a politician, jesus, he can play guitar like a mofo, why bother speak,

I think RID has something like that in his sig

"If the boys wont say it the guitars will play it"
 
Re: EVH playing his new amp @ NAMM video

ever notice that he actually looks like his ex-wife, Valerie Burtonelli?

that would be cool as the 5150 was used a hell of a lot and he wore it out in 6-7 short years!!!! that's a lot of playing! Frankie i guess lasted 10 years but it had many different necks and stuff..

But i can't see Fender or EVH brand doing a copy of this one as i'm sure the Gibson owned Kramer Music Yo company would have a thing or two to say about that!

oh i agree.. i'm just happy ED is trying to work again.. i hate it when my favourite musicians just fade away... I'm just glad he will be playing again in public soon
 
Re: EVH playing his new amp @ NAMM video

On a side question:

What was the best EVH guitar made anyway (excluding frankenstrat of course)?

The EBMM, the Peavey Wolfgang, the Kramers, or the new Charvels?

I played the Charvel and I really, really liked the way it played. I only played the EBMM once when it first came out and don't remember much. Never touched a Kramer or Peavey axe before.
 
Re: EVH playing his new amp @ NAMM video

Yeah man whats up with THAT???!

They came out with a Charvel Basswood Halen Axe that was supposedly 100% Halen and not to far after they come out with this????
Weird.....

now how flakey is that?
