Who else thinks the flanger is the most kickass part to this? It’s fkn sick no doubt, but hearing that thing wail as you hit those heavy chugs... damn my blood is hot
Definitely one of the greatest use of that effect maybe ever. This was brilliance of EVH. Making even simple rifts sound amazing with great tone and effect choice.
Flanger is not on all through the song, only in the chug parts on the drop d string. Gotta switch it on and off and have the sweep, rate and depth set correctly. Mxr phase 90 is the pedal used on most evh solos and a lot of his rhythm parts
haha im only 6'2" but the part of the basement i chose to be my studio when I was younger is also where all of the vents run for the heat and ac so its dropped lol. rest of the basement I fit no problem
Great job! You got the feel which is important. Eddie had a unique feel to his rhythm. It's tough to say that "had". But you're proof of about 3rd generation people he's influenced and his music will live on. I can tell by all of the artwork in the background and the guitar mods he's had a heavy influence on you. I'm the same way but im like 2nd gen Van Halen fan/guitar player who grew up in the 90's. Keep it up.
That was so much fun. Thanks for sharing. I am currently working out the last details for my own cover, played with a Wolfgang using a Pod XT VH Tone. It was great inspiration. This song always makes me happy, and playing it without a grin is just impossible!
@Zizzi's Genetics well its a comment on MY video... and I happen to love talking any kind of gear so I say it is definitely a welcomed comment... yours, however, is not
Hi. I enjoyed the cover. I haven't played any van halen tunes on guitar for at least 25 years. I learned a good dozen songs when i was in high school. I had Dave Whitehill from Guitar World as a guitar teacher (he was a transcriber). Unchained is in my top 3 favorites to play. Nice improv on some of the solo too. I think most should do that (eddie certainly did it a lot live). I was wondering about what you did in the mounting of that floyd and it's respective locking nut. I have a 57 reissue strat from the 80's that was stripped of it's paint and a neck that's very worn with no electronics. I think it'd be fun to build one similar to the strat you're playing as well as an homage to Eddie. did you do this mod yourself? anything to be mindful of when i do go ahead and make the mod? Thanks and happy playing!
Fckn amazing dude! I love everything about this clip, mostly how you enjoy playing the song, very good vibe! That swimming pool strat is very original, I like it 👏👏👏👏
I'm not super familiar with that model but all I did for this video was put the treble and mid around 8, bass at 4, isf at 10, presence at 6, resonance at 3, and master at 7. Gain was at around 3 on od2 with channel volume at 10. This amp is not stock however. Hope this helps!
GREAT JOB! For us that have listened to that song thousands of times, there's just a shade of a timing thing I'm hearing. No disrespect, you're a great player I just can't ignore it! Keep up the great work
Thank you! Yea, this video was from highschool so there are definitely some things I played wrong and slightly out of time compared to how I would play it now. Thinking of uploading a new version soon.

flanger is my favorite part too besides the outro. i always get chills listening to the outro studio version or the us fest version.
Definitely one of the greatest use of that effect maybe ever. This was brilliance of EVH. Making even simple rifts sound amazing with great tone and effect choice.

FEELS! Your tone and flange is 100% RIP Edward. We still Love and miss you.
Nicely done cover. Love your swimming pool routed Strat body. Who ever hit the dislike button must be tone deaf. Just ignore them.
hahah thank you! this is a pretty old video so there are definitely things I play better now in the song than I did then but it is what it is lol
Seriously tho why do people dislike stuff like this it doesn’t make any sense
@@chicfillatheamazinghd5113 IKR. Haters gonna hate.
@@davidmacaulay8517 come on Dave give 'em a break, they might just be clumsy and clicked the wrong one
Excellent cover -- sounds perfect!
Thanks so much!!
I could listen to this guy play all day.
Nailed it! Like....wow. Impressed. Most covers of EVH aren't great, you are a rare exception.
thank you! i kinda cringe when I watch this video now cause I play it so different now then I did way back then lol
Don't try to do the Eddie scissors jump, you'll hit your head on your ceiling!!
As your final wah wah says " wow wow wow wowwww " that's how I feel about your playing and soul of the music
Thank you!
Dude, great tone and playing! Love your energy bro! Nice Frankenstein!!!
Thank you! and thanks lol its so comfortable to play!
OMG DUUUUDE!! That was absolutely fantastic!! 😱😱👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻 Would love to see you do more VH covers. You nail the song, sound, and tone!
Dude, you're nailing some of these Van Halen covers!
You played it so cool 😎 and you made it look so easy. Hats down for the perfect tune. 👌... 👍👍
Wow ! Amazing performance !!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
By far the best cover ever ! 👍👍
Judging your height, you've outgrown the parents basement lmao good cover
haha im only 6'2" but the part of the basement i chose to be my studio when I was younger is also where all of the vents run for the heat and ac so its dropped lol. rest of the basement I fit no problem
Awesome job,AWESOME!!! You play with heart and your having a ball doing it
Thanks!!
Bad ass dude 😎🎸🎶😃❤nice guitar collection keep jammin
LOVE IT DUDE! Hey where are you getting backing drum tracks?
www.guitarbackingtrack.com !!
Fabulous job on a Van Halen classic,loved the smiling energy,you just nailed it!Aloha from Hawaii🤙🏽
I don't know what you did on your guitar, but it's great ! Love it !
Outstanding cover!
How this only has 44k views is ridiculous. So well played man!
Mate, that was awesome, well done I just found this video, great tone and technique, keep on posting, EVH forever 👍👍
Great tone, great playing, and sick guitar!
Absolutely nailed it!
Thanks!
Absolutely awesome....WOW!!!!!
That’s full tilt playing. Your use of the wah pedal is Devine too. Your guitar looks to be a veteran. Thank you.
Yep, nailed it! Without a doubt my favorite Jack Devine cover video! Continued success mate!
Great playing and that’s a wicked guitar as well!
Who knew Liam Hemsworth could play like Eddie?? 😂😂 good job man!
just amazing. god like skill.
Nailed it! Nicely done!!

Beautiful !....👍
Fantastic!! You just gotta wonder who could "thumbs down" this.....that does not compute.
Muy bueno!! Felicitaciones! Me puedes decir, cual es el backing track que usás? Así, sin vos ni guitarra... Gracias..
I’m just getting this vid 6 years later? Wtf! Great job!
Utterly badass cover and your attitude rules
what pedal did you use a distortion or a overdrive? that tone is exact to the recording!
no distortion pedal, straight into amp besides phaser, flanger, and wah!
Dude finally someone who knows exactly when to activate the flanger! Most just leave the flanger on throughout the whole song
Very nice man.
Dude, every time I watch this!!!! Your on point my friend 👏 🍺🤘🧀

@Zizzi's Genetics Go fuck yourself, nobody asked for your garbage negativity.

Really diggin your guitar!

Fckn amazing dude! I love everything about this clip, mostly how you enjoy playing the song, very good vibe! That swimming pool strat is very original, I like it 👏👏👏👏

Well done, dude. That was a great!
You did great
Sounds fantastic. I’d love to know what pickups you are using. Great work
Ed would be proud! nice job!

@@vvvvraptorvvvv thank you!
Nicely done man!
O yea!.....pretty awesome dude
I stumbled across your video and have probably watched it 100 times now. Dude you nailed it. Love Van Halen and love your cover!
thank you!
I was already following - ya got me onboard with the solo. Kick butt stuff, dude.
You're rocking it man!! Such a great song Eddie blessed us with.
Amazing tone….what are you using…flanger is spot on
what you using for tone man sounds great
this was about 3 or 4 years ago and I was using a blackstar 100 watt head (which I still use but it sounds more like a plexi now)
I take it you have EVH pickups in that thing, if not, what are they?
Wow! Kid you're good!👌😎👍
I have a Blackstar HT 5R any recommendations on settings?
I'm not super familiar with that model but all I did for this video was put the treble and mid around 8, bass at 4, isf at 10, presence at 6, resonance at 3, and master at 7. Gain was at around 3 on od2 with channel volume at 10. This amp is not stock however. Hope this helps!
updated reply, id say turn everything all the way up lol
dude I love you man this is so inspiring! you made me pick up my guitars again!

That was great ! I am trying to learn it. Are you turning on the flanger just for the chuggs on the E string ? I'm stuck in a pool of mud. Lol
Killer tone dude. Sounds great
Very very very well done.
