Winter NAMM Convention 1996
Anaheim Convention Center
Anaheim, CA
January 18, 1996
Notes:
Unveiling of the Peavy Wolfgang Model.
Ed takes questions from the fans and noodles around showing what the model guitar can do.
Ed cranks into "Humans Being" which is a work in progress at this point, the tune hasn't been recorded for the Twister soundtrack yet.
Ed even Invites a Fan up on stage to try the Wolfgang out, what happens here is Priceless!!!
He tells some really great stories about "316", "Early Albums" and why he drinks
Many years later Eddie admitted that these types of appearances were nerve wracking for him. He said it was harder playing in front of 40 people than 20,000. He was also trying to get clean and he had a hard time coping without the alcohol. He used alcohol to calm his nerves. Despite his addiction Eddie was an incredibly kind and humble person. We lost an amazing talent and his family lost a good person. RIP EVH.
Along with Randy Rhodes Eddie is one of the best guitar players in the world. Many followers of the youth are quite talented and they are doing well.
It is harder, i always thought that but only have had the experience so far to wonder. Playing in front of small crowds can be the worse feeling ever.
So true... !!
Yeah I’m sure a couple shots couldn’t hurt the situation
He says exactly that in this video.
He’s just a regular guy that happens to be the greatest guitarist in rock history. What a loss. We miss you Eddie
Gene Oliver, Totally!
Seemed like a sweet guy. Love that freaking smile. Don’t remember any other musician that made me smile every time he did 😊
Very well stated!!!!
When he says " so am i " after the guys who plays saids " jezz , im scared to death " , that moment is mind blowing ! It demonstrates how a wonderful human being he was. Im so sad since hes gone , i just cant get over.
I seriously think there are people in this world that just sit on UA-cam "disliking" videos just for the hell of it.
My god, one of the best guitarist is giving a presentation, while being completely vulnerable and nervous... showing us he is human and sharing his gifts. How can anybody dislike that?
Obviously you were brought up like I was. “If you can’t say anything nice, don’t say anything at all.”
Jealous. Makes you ugly.
@@johnnyb1776
Either me and brothers were nice or our dad slapped the shit out of us !! Hard lessons are easily learned that way !!!
Not me,.. I love it! Still can't believe he's gone...
Some of those dislikes are most likely part of UA-cam's algorithm.
I was actually at this NAMM, at this particular demonstration. Eddie was very humble and down to Earth. And even signed my guitar and other items afterwards.
Miss you every day, Eddie. Now when I listen to any music, it doesn't matter what it is, it just doesn't seem the same anymore without you being here. I don't even have the attention span to sit through, and listen to an entire song anymore, because music at the moment just makes me want to see you on stage again, like I have numerous times; shredding, and then I start to think about how amazing Van Halen is and always will be, and then it really hits me trying to accept the fact that you're not here anymore. My guitar hero, my mentor. It's painful.
I pray that some doctor(s) in the near future will finally find a cure to abolish Cancer once and for all. Please God, give someone out there the ability to find a cure. These things are hard to deal with.
My deepest condolences go out to the Van Halen immediate family.
Rest In Paradise, Edward Lodewijk Van Halen
They do have a cure for eddies cancer. If he didnt drink like a fish, smoke like a chimney and snort like a hoover, he would be alive today
Hes better off than we are ..the globalist comnunist hell topia is coming soon
He does seem very authentic and humble. 23:00 saying he didn't "write" the songs....heard others say similar, but he's still an amazing talent. And says he gets nervous. Totally can relate.
@@Ottophil your a shit bucket.
@@Ottophil your such a dick. think who's watching these vid's right now. eff you, you prick.
Ed and myself jammed together on several occasions, he was a wonderful human being. Ed did get nervous playing in front of small groups of people, especially when he was sober, he was the real deal. God bless you Ed, with all my love.
that is truly amazing. what an honor and a privilege
Load of shit.
Can't believe you're gone. You've been here in my life since High School, 40 yrs. Miss you Eddie, Happy Trials my friend .
@Tyler Mod -_-
@Tyler Mod nope, I'll bet he would call you a m-word.
Don't know what you got til it's gone. His business with Roth, Anthony, or Sammy wasn't mine. Every video I see, the man is smiling and appreciates his audience or fans. He loves his family. I'm not listening to anymore BS about his disagreements with bandmates. He was a lovely man, a genius musician and innovator. He'll be remembered for a long time. As he should.
Thank you for putting what I feel into words.
Well said.
I had the impression he never really did 'grow up' until much much later on in his 50s and 60s.. fame/$$$ at such a young age tend to effect one's social behaviour/interaction with others.. I believe evh the man is still a thru and thru guitar kid at first, the kid down the block so to speak.. and didn't have the social skills to deal with the intricacy of public fame and being PC with ppl.. thus the stuff with band members etc later on..
the ongoing tension with dlr was what made the band great since the beginning (dlr admitted that himself as well in interviews etc), but the other side of that is what we seen in the mid 80s.. and later with Sam in the 00s...
I have always taken this stance and really had to remove myself from the VH fanbase over the last 10 years because of the vitriol. Tired of defending the brothers from all the bitter fans. Sad that it took Ed's death for people to shut up and enjoy the music. That's what happens when fans get involved in personal relationships and things that really aren't their business in the first place.
Couldn’t have said it better. He made me happy watching him play and most other bands didn’t have that effect. I just listened to their music, don’t remember smiling like I did watching Eddie.
Man, my heart is soo heavy watching Eddie. You can tell this isn't his favorite thing to do but his warmth and humility is easy to see....18:53 Talking to a fan. Such a cool guy!! God Bless you Eddie Van Halen, the music world won't be the same without you.
He seemed like such a kind person to fans. I know he had his difficult times, but he seemed like a good soul for his status
He was humble. He acknowledged that he was given a gift. Bless his soul.
@Commenter2 Former VH manager Noel Monk said Roth was a major pain in the ass. Eddie wasn't a saint but Roth was pretty much a diva. Can't speak about Sammy I'm more of a Roth era fan.
@Commenter2 u try dealing with DLR...and Sammy said things were fine until they hired a new Mgr and he was always in eddie ear saying this is your band dont let Sammy run it
too bad he was not kind to his own body. smoking and drinking took a toll on him !
@@red149 we all have are Vices..luckily I don't drink..but his dad did & smoke so it was in the genes
People can learn Eddies stuff, but he created it. GOAT!
Strings stretching, faulty strap, loose mic, awkward pauses...Eddie is still Eddie. Loved every second of it.
Still on Eddie binge.
Same!!
Yup
@Tyler Mod.....and?
@Tyler Mod people can change. Not saying he did, but I am curious what time this was.
@Tyler Mod I used to be racist. People can learn.
No matter how many people copy EVH, he is still the originator and he always put the "FUN" in guitar playing... others just are mechanical.
ROCK IN PEACE- EDDIE VAN HALEN ( Oct. 6th 2020 ) 😎✌
Exactly. Just doing it but the joy doesn’t come across as it did with Eddie. Made it fun to watch him ! Always.
Eddie tunes his E string,
"YEAH!"
"WOOH!"
"YES!"
Lol
Lol
E string Blues! Wooo!
I totally relate to Eddie being nervous, people think these guys are gods but most great artists are introverts by nature and being in a setting where people are staring at you gives them anxiety attacks. I'm an artist and musician and suffer from almost debilitating panic attacks in certain situations, I could tell from the start of this video Eddie was having a panic attack by the way he was fumbling around, it really sucks and people who don't deal with it have no idea how terrible it is. That's why so many musicians and artists are addicts, they rely on chemicals to block out the noise. If he was on stage in front of thousands of people it wouldn't be as bad because people would be focusing on the band as a whole and he could lose himself in his guitar, being in front of a few people by himself is way scarier because he is the center of attention, he probably felt like he was falling off a cliff. I think about how much further in life I would be if I didn't have to deal with that crap it really sucks so I totally identify and feel for Eddie. That's why it pisses me off when I see people constantly bringing up his personal life and problems instead of just enjoying his gift to the world.
@eddie julian...you stated, "I'm an artist and musician".. Would you have any video of yourself performing?
eddie julian panic attacks performing or speaking in front of people is something I’ve had to suffer my whole life. You can work on it by just doing it a lot but you can never know when that one performance something fucks you up. It definitely sucks and like you said we reach for the beer and other things to deal with it. Those that don’t have no idea how fucked it is to deal with, it is a bit of a curse.
@strangeuniverse1 yeah ok....
That actually makes perfect sense. Well said.
@Yellow Jacket - speak for yourself , asshole
@Nutsack-1 or sadsack or whatever the fuck your name is : I care for your negativity ....spread it around sad nutsack! Fuck these crybabies !
Watching gems like this is helping ease the pain of losing the King Edward, You can see how humble, shy and reserved he was. Us musicians are a sensitive lot. Thank you for such a wonderful and heartfelt tribute to our King Edward.
The Missus woke me up crying and for the entire day we couldn’t listen to a note of King Edward without the waterworks comin’ - so many good times with his music -it felt weird
We found watching interviews with him and other kind folks like yourself paying tribute to Eddie makes it somewhat easier to bear. We literally had a day of intensely mourning. It might sound daft but Ed’s playing and attitude is hugely responsible for inspiring me to be the person I am.
There’s a Bad Religion ( Punk Band ) Lyric that says it al “ Everyone you love leaves a mark on your soul,
The world is a little less bright without King Edward
Im fighting cancer and depression and its been especially tough with the news of Eddie’s passing but hearing all these wonderful tributes and reaction and the love and joy he brought and is bringing….makes it a tad bit easier
Much love and respect! Thank you for honouring our King Edward. Eddie's music touched us so deeply because of his love for the instrument and the innovations he has done. To us, it feels like the brightest and best brother, Uncle, friend mentor you ever had is not in our realm anymore. You have Nothing but love from the rock/metal / guitarist community, respect for your tribute to EVH, Rock n Metal does not get the exposure and respect that other genres get.
So, you are forever in the hearts of many a Rock / Metal / Guitar fan's hearts. Stay safe & all the best wishes to you. Watch this Video Interview and you'll see why we're hurting so much...The world is a little less bright without King Edward This is a brilliant interview if you haven’t seen it ua-cam.com/video/yb26D8bBZB8/v-deo.html&ab_channel=Z%C3%B3caloPublicSquare
most people don’t know the King Edward was a bi-racial half Asian / half white Immigrant and that his lifelong friends were the black kids who stood up for them when they came to the US. A definitive American Dream story.
Eddie played the solo on Michael Jackson’s Beat it, re-arranged it so it sounded more ‘Rock’ and introduced Michael to a wider audience for free.
Eddie buried Dimebag Darrell from Pantera with his original Bumblebee Guitar when Dime’s life partner Rita asked him to make a Copy Ed said “an Original deserves an Original”
Vinnie Paul ( Pantera ) Dimebag’s brother says the last words his brother said to him was Van f+*in Halen’ their nightly ritual before hitting the stage.
He gave Jerry Cantrell 5150 Stacks after touring with Alice In Chains and the last concert he went to was TOOL and a TOOL fan asked him to take a picture of the fan in front of Tool’s stage and he did, The fan had no idea who Ed was and Ed was chill with it.
Frank Zappa loved and respected Eddie and got him to teach Dweezil who was obsessed with ED When Frank died Ed was THE 1st first to call with condolences and to offer any assistance.
He did the same for Chris Cornell Guitarist Pete Thorn when Chris Passed
He got Allan Holdsworth signed to Warner to introduce Allan to a wider audience
He was the 1st to mod his guitars in such an extreme way chasing tone, Creating the Super Strat - Humbuckers in Strat style guitars, Waxing Pickups, Variac on his amp and did his first 2 albums with the original Fender Whammy which led to the creation of the Floyd Rose
Whammy Bar.
Les Paul Said Ed, him & Leo Fender are the only guys who know how to make guitars
His 5150 Amp is still THE go to amp and sound of Modern metal, Gojira use the EVH 5150
His Rhythm Playing was funky, tasteful and rockin’ and his songwriting is the reason his loss is affecting grandparents, parents, kids and all ethnicities alike as Van Halen songs will live forever.
He bravely and quietly fought cancer for 20 years
Enjoy EVH ua-cam.com/video/L9r-NxuYszg/v-deo.html&ab_channel=Hazardteam
Try Cannabis Oil for your Cancer, here's all you need to know in a free eBook I wrote about Rick Simpsons research:

@@viewoftheaskew Thank you soo much for the kind words and well wishes and I've downloaded the eBook, Many many Thanks! I'm fed up with conventional routes that just leave me feeling worse. I'll definitely look into it as the medicinal properties cannot really be disputed. There was even a documentary with Dr Sanjay Gupta singing its praises. Thank you again. Much love & respect \m/
His nervousness is/was adorable. Even though we thought of him as a GOD, he was human just like us all. RIP Edward.
This was so nice, humbling and just heart warming to watch.
24:53 here is why he is probably the greatest player ever: so effortless, so joyful
RIP Edward Van Halen..
You seemed like such a kind soul.
The one dude that you would want at every party has finally crashed on the couch to get some rest
THE MUSIC WORLD WILL NEVER BE THE SAME .THIS MAN WAS THE GUITAR AND THE GUITAR WAS HIM ..FREAKN SUCKS NO MORE EDDIE BUT HE WILL LIVE ON IN OUR HEARTS OUR CARS AND WHAT EVER DEVICE HAS THE CHANCE TO PLAY THIS MUSICAL GENIUS..R.I.P. EDDIE
I was there that day and got a picture taken with Eddie. The photo went missing from my work years later. Super bummed about losing that photo.
Thank you for releasing this it was great to see
I don't attempt to imitates EVH's style, but I still feel like he's my inspiration because of his love for the instrument, virtuosity, primordial approach, fearless expressiveness, and human decency.
This is awesome. When he was a humble man. This was my idol. the reason I play and have played for 20 years.
He is not my idol.... But I love him he is a genius on the guitar.... Give all honor to Jah
he's the great lead guitarist and awesome rhythm player. he can do both at the same time. awesome man.
Hard to watch him play and then tell the 316 story. You see the love in his eyes for Wolf as he finishes the story, then you think about Wolfs post letting us know he was gone. I still can’t believe he’s no longer with us creating with his guitar.
OMFG!! The full video!!
That guy who came from the audience to play with KICKING ASS! "I'm scared to death"..... "So am I" - Eddie...
Feelin' for him at the end...man...his sensitivity helped him be a vessel for all that creativity...but also, he had to deal with being that sensitive all the time. Hard not to feel a connection to him as a person, not just a musician.
Thanks for the upload. This is great!
That's incredible! How he didn't think his red, white and black striped guitar design would be in demand. Wow!!
He gave his heart,soul and eventually his life for music,long live rock, thank you Eddie RIP
EDDIE is never Gone. HIs Work and His Music will Live.................................................Forever!!!!
An amazing guitar player/songwriter who created an incredible sounding guitar and amp! Thanks Eddie for everything, you'll always be the best! 😇
For all his faults and downfalls. Still admire the man and his skills.
Everyone has down falls and set backs..... Its called life.... Just because your admired doesn't exempt you from life's pitfalls and set backs
D`wadd,, AKA captain obvious, thank you for your in-depth and insightful knowledge of the only conclusion one could reach from my brief and condensed version of my own opinion and thought, so glad you took the time to explain what I am thinking to me... no one knows my mind better than you, I think, let me know!
I've made a similar comment before and was ridiculed as not a true VH fan. I started with the first album when I was 12 and still love the music at 55. We can all be assholes and not treat others well when we're dealing with personal issues and Ed is no exception just because he is a guitar god.
Totally......but I do believe he was a lot more kind and giving at the same time.....at least from the accounts of bands and people who have played and toured with him.
Ray Davies put it best in Celluloid Heros:
"Should've been made of iron or steel but he was only made of flesh & blood".
RIP🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵
Eddie is now volleying tones and sounds with Dime, Jimi, Paul Chapman, Les Paul and the rest of the legends! What a party it must be!
Thank you for sharing this with us
Just saw my head on the front row to the right! Yes, i was one of the privileged ones to attend this event. Still have my autographed poster of Ed with the White Wolfgang! Great memories! Thanks for uploading this video! Made my day! 😁
Awesome bro... really, once in a lifetime
Tony Fix Yes it was. Only 50 people were allowed in that room and my Peavey rep got me in. I asked him a question about why he left Ernie Ball guitars at 8:22 in the video but u can’t really understand what I said.
I'd bless Eddie. I'm sure you are with your dad jamming in paradise
Enjoy life while you can, none of us will get out alive.
This was before his voice changed because cancer, Bless you Eddie, you changed everything, peace be with you!
He voiced also changed when they took part of his tongue
this guy, I tell you, I never get bored at watching him play. rip Van Halen.
An awesome soul. Never forget you, Eddie.
Edward Van Halen king of kings! Genuis¡ Innovator!Master! Virtuoso! Leyend! God bless him forever!
Grew up with that guy , hammered, pulled, and tapped his way into my total existence , and so so many others, you'll never be forgotten , rest well Ed ..
I’ve always loved how he was humble enough to know he was lucky a f to be able to do what he loved. His constant smile while playing made me understand just how much fun you could have playing music in a band. Neil Peart made me want to play the drums and Eddie made me want to play guitar ... 35 years later I still do both. Crazy that both of my earliest music idols past away this year.
I love videos like this when we can see Eddie being himself. He was such a beautiful soul. I find it interesting that many musicians are incredibly shy and don't like being in front of crowds.
I was there for this. So amazing
Amazing to look at this vid then flip forward 4 years and see what EVH became. So glad he made it back again.
Man, I am not an expert on VanHalen or anything by any means, but I watched some interviews with him that were around 1996 after the some award show where they "reunited" with DLR for a very short period of time and I can't even believe this footage and those interviews were in the same period of time. He is pretty clean cut and seems in good spirits here, those other interviews I mentioned he looked absolutely awful. He had kind of scraggly hair, was wearing glasses, looked like he had lost some weight, and seemed like an absolutely miserable bastard.
Then I saw the NAMM 2003 footage with him,that had to be when he was just about at his lowest point. I think the person who posted the video interacted with EVH there and he commented that he thought for sure that EVH would be dead with in the next couple of years at that point. Like you said, I'm glad he turned things around from this low stretch.
Two months ago today we lost Eddie. I'm still very bummed about the whole deal. I grew up idolizing this guy. Watching the videos on MTV (I remember always waiting for "Panama" to come on), reading about him in the music magazines, seeing the incredible photos from the US Festival in '83, to even cutting out my own fake guitars from OSB and painting them up with stripes. Just such a shame that we lost him due to cancer, but on the other hand, he left us with a lot.
That tone! Shines through despite the low quality of the vid.
Tom Andersen yeah tape really wasn’t so bad lol
Thank you Edward for being the soundtrack of my life since 1978.
RIP
Love this video, thanks to share
what a treat to watch..
He's like an uncle who has this special skill that he would always like to share, don't want to brag about it but teach you all about it. So natural, so geniune.
Wow. This could be the healthiest I have ever seen EVH look. He was my high school hero. I just adored him. What breaks my heart is knowing he battled cancer. The suffering he probably endured is what saddens me. He is now without pain & might be in a better place? RIP Ed💕🎸
There was a stretch there where he had seemingly started to figure out how to control his demons...but if you see the MTV interviews just a year after this...wow, he looks like Lou Reed. And then it got really bad. At least the last 7 or 8 years of his life he seemed to be sober and got to enjoy playing with his son.
Oh my God where was all this footage of Eddie being so fucking cool and happy when he was alive?
So many videos of him at his lowest point, but now many great videos of him appearing in my feed.
Best guitar player/musician/songwriter in history and I predict also in future. Miss him badly.
My favorite musician ever and I play drums.
Watching Eddie get teary eyed playing 316...very sweet!!
Tone is in the hands of the master, didn’t matter what brand guitar or amp he played, he was always undeniably EVH!
OMG, this is awesome! To see his humility. Truly did not think people would want a guitar with his signature colors.
Haha Eddie was so clumsy, always hitting the guitars, pulling the cable and stuff... Man, it's been days and most of us still can't take the tragedy off our heads. Eddie will be missed forever. May his soul be in a better place.
Oh that smile gets me right here every time❤️❤️❤️will never forget you Eddy...💔
Eddie was such a humble guy. God rest his soul and bless and comfort his family!
He was so shy acting....Drinking probably relaxed him... RIP to the GOAT.. Rock will never be the same..
Eddie van halen RIP great player and changed the way people played
Ive noticed my strings dont ever quite sound "in tune" anymore . since the king passed on.
You may have left us with your music, but Music & Guitar will never be the same, Love You King Edward Vanhalen ❤ RIP...
GOAT...To invent, to play riffs never heard before 1978’ ( first Vanhalen album) to be so in tune with a sound in your ear, & to build an instrument so close to sound in head. Legend!!! Eddie is my generations Jimi Hendrix...i am 56 yrs old
That's REAL music in my opinion!!!!! Being able to do JUST THAT! *from head to instrument in seconds!* And also the gift of practice!!!
Absolutely. Gots to love Eddie saying screw all your volume & tone knobs, just give me a volume knob...its like once he found that sound he wasn’t going to put a lot of gadgets in front of sound
So sweet, you named the guitar after your son.💗 RIP guitar hero.
I was a kid of the 80s, VH was huge summer of ‘84, I won’t ever forget
“Not religious, but it comes from somewhere. I’ve never really written a song.”
That’s called humility folks.
We should try it once in a while.
Never gets old watching you play will miss you
Had the good fortune to play and own one of those Peavey EVH signature models. It blew away every other axe that I had hands down period. RIP Eddie, the best ever.
After this it was all downhill for ten years. This was the best he ever looked.
I think I agree with Sammy...OU812 was when they looked their best.
the drugs/lifestyle indulgences caught up with age.. tend to show up in one's 40s or 50s and beyond..
I rmb this look like it was yesterday, still can't believe he was gone couple weeks back.. thought he would survive anything like Keith etc.
@@user-tt6be2zx3h totally agree...look at Mustaine...he's battled what Eddie did and it has taken it's toll
Yup. Then came the cancer diagnosis, which led back to drinking, leading to Valerie leaving, leading to even more drinking, and then that's what Sammy walked back into. A shame, if Ed was in this shape in 2004, might've been a different story.
really awesome!!!
I’ve had the 5150 combo, 5150 and 5150 II Head, and two 5150 angle cabinets.
The only VH song that I’ve ever played out live was Ain’t Talking Bout Love. It was always the tone I admired.
Thanks!!!
Such a humble man that changed music with his guitar playing and always was smiling God bless him and thanks for the good times
Imagine how surreal and intimidating it would be to have Eddie's face less than 2 feet away from your picking hand as you play guitar.
A feeling that only the fortunate were allowed to experience.
Simple and humble man... Looks the kind of guy you invite for a barbecue!!
May God bless him
This is fantastic!!!!
The world loves you Eddie because you bring joy with your gift. The great EVH is a human and he should be saluted for his courage! Thank you Eddie your music gives me life and energy!
After reading many of the comments here, I found out I'm not alone in being greatly affected by Ed's passing. His Cheerful rebellion was unique and his humble genius, staggering. There are a other guitarists that are brilliant and yet not only not in the same ballpark as Eddie, ....but not even in the same solar system. This does not diminish the brilliance of the others. Ed was just that good. ..Glad I was here to appreciate it. 🎸🎸🤘
I’ve been bummed ever since, then 9 months later my beautiful 32 year old daughter passed away.
I loved when he started talking about muting, muffling and gain control. I always stress this about individual tone. The way you hit the strings, the way you place your hands, changes greatly between players and you need to adjust gain levels (and every other setting available as well, of course) accordingly. I've had an episode in the past where a guy at a sound check was telling me "Yeah it's easier to play an electric (in opposition to playing an acoustic), 'cause you don't have to hit the strings so hard..." and I told him "OK, if you think so, here's my guitar. Play it". And he proceeded to make a fool out of himself by being on stage 5 mins producing nothing but feedback. This happened back in 1998 when I used way too much gain... :)
RIP Eddie and thanks for the music
Excellent video of our dear master Van Halen!
I'm a staunch metal guitarist who likes to play fast and heavy or bluesy and sleazy. As soon as Eddie shows up with guitar in hand none of that matters. Eddie transcends genres. He is pure magic and I am so grateful to have been a fan since 1978 at 8 years old.
What a sweetheart. So cool. EVH FOREVER!
Eddie Van Halen's Music will live on FOREVER!!!
Handsome,humble , funny, magic playing, gifted In one word GENIUS !!!!!!
Everyone talks about his playing and he was truly one of the greats. The equipment he was part of building is something that rarely gets mentioned and it should.
What an amazing human.
This….THIS is what UA-cam was made for. The man’s gone but we have hours upon hours of footage of him like he’s still here. And those EVH amps are absolutely KILLER amps. The man knew what he was doing. I haven’t played a Wolfgang yet but hope to soon. I’ve heard they’re one of the easiest guitars to play ever which is what he had in mind when he designed them. Rest well Ed.
This guy was and will always be the greatest...💜🤟💜
Very cool he didn't do many of these to my knowledge good to see him jam.
Congrats Eddie for being the best guitar player in Guitar Magazine!! I certainly agree. ♥ ♫♪♫♪
Gone but never forgotten nor duplicated..Eddie and his talent stood as one..when he walked towards his guitar the guitar stood at attention and saluted Van Halen
Will always be missed :( can't believe he's gone. I pray for his family and close friends
I bought the Imports CDs, Single CDs, full album CDs. Went to all the concerts all eras, learned all the music on guitar! Thanks Van Halen!
The Best In My Book No Doubt! Rest in peace Eddie
