Many guitarists copy the Eruption solo, but when it comes to the famous hummingbird picking part, most guitarists put too much strain on their arms and end up with a terrible sound.
i remember there was some video in crimes caught on camera or something where a guy stole a gibson les paul custom by putting the body through his sweatshirt and neck through his sweatpant leg. the commentary was that at least he was smart enough to walk out with the most exp guitar
Damn, bro. You're an incredible player. Real brilliance, though, as I'm sure you'll agree, comes in the WRITING or CREATING your own shit. Now that you're armed with the tools/knowledge/know-how, I wish you all the best in doing something with it. Use your badass abilities to gift something new to the world, brother. Pulling for ya!!
never saw one actually, a lot of "no Stairway to heaven", " No smells like t.s.", "No smoke on the water", "No wonderwall" but i never saw "no Eruption")))
They were originally 25k and they immediately sold out of the 300 made. I’m absolutely shocked they’re only work 15k now… Given that Eddie is no longer with us.
It’s barely 500$ saying it came with Van Halen memorabilia and it was made by the best Luithers in the world to make the most accurate replica of a extremely famous guitar. 🤘🤘🤘

@@bababoey.Theres unfortunately some mental magic in some of those high end guitars that arent any better than parts casters you can build for pennies. And if you cant bond with a guitar it doesnt matter what its worth
tremolo picking and tapping are literally some of the easiest guitar techniques to do. it sounds cool for sure but literally anyone could do it with an hournor teo of practice
I work at a guitar center in Michigan Southfield and I’ve sold out our store of spark products like 3 times. I swear by em. I’ve had a kemper for years and although I do love that thing and it’s still my main gig amp I ADORE the sparks. The tones you can get out of them are pretty mind blowing. I definitely recommend it to anyone starting out for the versatility so you can have some fun when you get frustrated learning. Or for those that have been playing for decades for some killer tones and pedals/effects at your fingertips so you can play along to your fav songs. These products are 🔥
Watch commenting that store's name if you work there. Don't criticize their practices, or you're liable to get fired. Maybe they've changed their policy to allow free speech since then, but I saw it happen many years ago. Can't say I'm not happy that my hometown music mall put them out of business here. lol
Normally, I'm not big on huge money guitars but damn does that sound good. It helps this guy can just play the hell out of it and that little amp is punching way above $129 dollars. But damn!
@@blarghblargh Yes, you do have to work diligently. But good gear makes a difference when you get to a point where you're pretty solid. Most people are not there, however.
The amp is actually really nice. The playing though is flawless. Excellent playing man, seriously. I still don't have "Eruption" down yet after many years of playing. Small amps are great for practicing.
I don’t understand how guitars go for so much cause their a replica… just find a cheap guitar your not afraid to cut up and customize and there you go, now you made that replica and saved a ton of cash
If you think headphones is great with it you should get around to recording with it one day, it's a breeze and you can make it sound absolutely legendary.
People need to stop gatekeeping as if evh wasn't one of the biggest advocates of improvisation "uhm actually he didn't play it exactly like the tabs say to"🤓
.. ini deme dah kabo kan replika aje bukan yg ori.... jadi mahe giler le gita ni.. lebeh korang enampuluh ribu hage nye!.. giler de babies mahe nye lepeh tu bukan yg 'bear-tool' pulak....
honestly you can just build a replica on your own for under 1000 depending on how accurate you wanna get, so paying 15k for just a mashup of regular priced guitar parts that was started being built by at the time just a guitarist before his band was successful sounds insane to me. he didn't have some crazy knowledge of building a guitar that we don't have, if you're good with your hands and do enough research you can build an almost 1:1 replica of it depending how much time and money you put into it (still less than a grand at most, if you're gonna go for exact parts like the body from the same year and same type of wood that's gonna cost a good amount more like around $1600 but still that's way less expensive than these replicas which are new wood, which isn't as authentic as if you were making it to like feel like you just bought it off eddie or something. idk i know that was a big rant ab it but i just hate how expensive the replicas are (yeah i know there's the $2000 ones you can get from the evh brand series guitars but i have so many problems with that guitar that i could type a whole other essay about)

Great guitar nice playing nice little tribute to truly one of the all time greats miss you evh May God rest your dear soul please God Bless peace

Freaking love this!!!!
This guy looks like a Bill and Ted extra he time travelled from the 80s to teach us the old ways of the force lol
Van Halen would be so proud
15k guitar on a Spark Go. Honestly!
Finally, a good player on a spark commercial.
Dude looks like the coffee coffee coffee guy from Dantes Peak. 😂😂😂😂
Well… dude you must’ve bought the guitar after that torture right?! 😂
Love your talent papi. The distortion is epicly true to sound. U look like Bill and ted at the end

As long he doesn’t do what lil Wayne did that was just sacrilegious
Bro had to hit us with eruption
Absolutely 100 so refreshing
That guitar is so sick
Nah. Illegal would be playing the Enter Sandman riff
This guy aint no joke.
I heard some incorrect notes in the triplets. :(
What used to be illegal was mainly stairway to heaven.... No stairway to heaven allowed at guitar center
That price is hilarious
Eddie would be proud
That actor from Bill & Ted has aged well.
Sounds like a strat
Beautiful
Amp is honestly like 10% of it - it’s all about technique and musicianship
$16000 for a guitar, any guitar... people need their heads looking at.
No replica should cost more than a grand
anyone who drops $16,000 for that guitar doesn't deserve to have that much money...
He's lucky there wasn't a sign that said "No Eruption"
No one can stop me from erupting when seeing that guitar, sign or no sign.
never saw one actually, a lot of "no Stairway to heaven", " No smells like t.s.", "No smoke on the water", "No wonderwall" but i never saw "no Eruption")))
Or one that said play eruption correctly lol
"No eruption? Denied"
DENIED!!
That 129$ amp is the Spark Go and it rips. Has all the same tones as the big amp, just portable.
Thing sounds killer
Yeah, the entire video is just a promotion for the amp.
I’m saving up for one, I have the other two and I use them just as much as my boss amp
Using it right now, things fucking great! Sounds better than my other bigger spark amp
Well thanks for answering my question before I could even type it 😂
The last thing that guy wanted to hear was "im gonna do something illegal" while he hands you over a 16 thousand dollar guitar 😅
Lmao
HAHAHAHAHAHA
I thought he was gonna do stairway lol
And put on some pants.
“Eruption” the “Stairway To Heaven” of guitar solos.
I used to tell the crowd during our first set that we didn't take requests to play Stairway to Freebird...

Playing that tapping section wrong should be illegal, that's for sure.

You play it and post it.

Tiny speakers often sound great when recorded. They fall down when that speaker has to actually "push" the air across the room.

Well, that IS their primary function.
I love it when guitarists play songs, that need no improvement, exactly like the artist that wrote it played it!
Eddie was amazing.. so many people can play the sins but imagine being the one guy who thought of it all… RIP EVH
*songs

yup! but his white tennis shoes are puss !

Does anyone know what song he 1st played before Eruption?

Love that solo all my life. Ed the Shred.

Stoked to see Bill S. Preston, Esquire finally learned how to play
Are people actually commenting on the sound quality of the amp when it's being played through their 50¢ speakers on a phone or tablet?!?!
Where's the burn mark on the head stock?

Says it needs no introduction after giving an introduction..
$16k for a guitar Eddie built for under $300? Mugs.
" this guitar needs no introduction" after introducing the fuck out of it
Eddie said that these were much nicer than the real Frankenstrat. Which isn't surprising i guess.
Never buy a replica never it will "never" be worth any more than what you paid fot it.
Why does it got broken pickups and one less?
this guitar needs no introduction after giving guitar introduction
At least that was a really good eruption cover lol
