Who the fuck is Eddie Van Halen?
The hell you say
Lies. LIES!!!!
did you know that evh stands for Eddie van Halen? stay woke
Uh who doesn't is a noob
@@jamesmata2945 wooooosh
@@H2ORaccoon Shhhh dont tell him
Is this supposed to be a joke?
News to me lol
Awesome as always and huge congrats on 40,000+ Subs! Truly amazing work!
why do need permission for Fender when Fender already owns them??
It's cause Ed's getting a major chunk of the money.And it's common business practice.
@@thealaskan1635 not anymore 😖
Good Job man, apreciate your content a lot
Phil, I always enjoy your videos. Thanks for making it.
New subscriber. I actually didn't know about the paint process. I honestly thought they were clear coated decals. The price seems a lot better now. Keep doing these. You've got an awesome channel here.
Hey Philip, just a tip, the story about the magnetic field and sustain is just false, the magnetic field of the pickups are extremely weak. There's a UA-cam video, by Will Easy Guitar, where he puts a VERY strong magnet above the guitar and the sustain is barely affected. It's really just a myth...
The only reason Ed only had a single humbucker in that iconic super strat was he didn't know how to wire up the guitar. he fooled around and got it to work with the volume pot and left it at that. It had nothing to do with greater sustain and every other excuse people make up. It was the result of his inability to do proper wiring with a selection switch that frustrated him and when he managed to get it working with a single humbucker he took the win and eventually our hearts with his outrageous but mystical guitar.
Right.
I just watched a video last night of him giving a tour of 5150 to what looked like an old MTV guy and he joked about that very thing.
You are correct, sir.
ua-cam.com/video/CBdRL490W48/v-deo.html
@@KingPepeLePew That's right. The only reason the switch isn't being used to work with both pickups is that Ed didn't know enough about wiring. Sometimes I think about getting a replica which makes the switch work just because of that. Of course sometimes I think about getting replicas of his six most famous guitars...but what am I going to do with six replicas when I don't play in a VH tribute band? LOL
😆😆😆Will’s Easy Guitar. That guy is a knob end.
Great one Philip. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Phillip. Love your videos. I am a neophyte player, just been leaning for 7 months now, and I really enjoy learning from you. Kind of like I had a buddy that was into guitar. Very cool, please keep it up!! Could you do a 'shoot out" of pros and cons of some of the portable amps? I am back and fourth a lot, and I am considering a Roland Cube, Yamaha THR10 and anything in between. Thanks from the Canadian Prairies!!
just getting into playing guitar again after a years' hiatus. how did you get this great tone in the video? your channel is motivating me to get back into it, thanks so much
Great Video ! I got my W/B one Friday as a scratch n dent and its a great playing guitar . love the unfinished neck had to raise the bridge and re-intonate the g string but after a new set of .009's its bangin ! keep up the great video's .
I really enjoy watching all these great guitar & bass video's....
Another great video as usual!
i really appreciate your videos and all the knowledge you share. have you reviewed any carvin gear? i was wodering what you thought about the quality of their guitars. last year i got a x100b and its by far the best amp i have ever played.
Awesome video, thanks for the info.
Love your channel
Mr McKnight i love your channel. thank you for what you do
Amazing tone Phillip!!! Could you tell me the equipment you used in this video? Thanks!!!
Very cool love this guitar preforms like a charm great video
Oh, to have that paint / stripe sequence... worth as much as a personalized lesson with ED!!! Thank you Phil for sharing this... you ARE the man!! :-P
Thanks for sharing the information on EVH striped guitars.
This series is amazing!
Great review! saw another review by a couple of guys who were clowns. Did not give any of the important info you did and did not play one EVH lick or song. Ed was a huge influence on me in my early years of playing. Your review answered many of my questions such as the paint job. Thanks to this informational video and the great tone you got out of the instrument, I am going to buy one!
just got an evh 5150 guitar and love the tone of the pick up its insane
EVH's are co owned by Fender, yes?
EVH is wholly owned by Fender and Eddie's estate gets a royalty for everything sold with the EVH branding, Vai, has the same deals with his endorsements. www.investopedia.com/articles/company-insights/091516/top-5-companies-owned-fender.asp
Brilliant idea to rebrand the series. Despite understanding that the content did not change, it made me wanna watch the videos for the less known (to me) guitars.
I watch so many of your videos why haven't I subscribed yet?!? I do that all the time with the UA-cam channels I enjoy xD
Outstanding facts EVH of which I thought that custom painted it.
i just seen the wolfgang Frankenstein paint on it and it looks pretty sweet
Thanks Phil, your videos are always entertaining and insightful. Regarding the Floyd Rose and the D-tuna I have read that the D-tuna will not work on a Floyd Rose set up to float, is that correct?
correct. With that D-tuna piece poking out, you can't pull back on the vibrato arm without it digging into the paint job, probably messing up and maybe eventually breaking the D-tuna as well. so you should only dive down with that arm anyway, no need to float
Love anything about EVH
I have one just like that
It nails the brown sound I've been chasing paired with the EVH LBX
Can you do a video with the LBX?
Hey Phillip I want a tee shirt in Red XL please how do I get one from you,actually make that two please.Great meeting you at the LA Namm and thank you for my pick you gave me.GREAT WORK FOR ALL YOU DO MY FRIEND
Hey Phil, how about a 10 things about your Washburn N4??
Can you do a review of ALL the different Eddie Van Halen guitars? I have lost count on how many there are!
The last fact sold this guitar to me! Too bad the black and white one is 770 € here in Germany.
all I know is I play one today through a evh inspired amp and I was very impressed. Hell yeah for basswood!
Cool vid, should do a things you didn't know about the Gibson explorer, Gibson flying-V or fender jaguar
5 Watt World has those already.
Rip Eddie Van Halen
I just got my shirt and 2 mugs in the post. l'll send a pic soon.. My favorite channel on UA-cam ! ! !
I know the stripe series guitars are not floating, but are the wolfgang like the standards and specials floating? And does it mostly take care of the tuning issues? Thanks.
I love EVH! Good price, comfort, and good tone.
Great video :)
Dig the hell out of you brother keep the videos coming
Hey Love the vids!!! I was wondering what you thought of compensated nuts like the Buzz Feiten system, Earvana, eNut, funky nut etc. Do they work? Are they worth the money? I've only seen/heard one that I know of his guitar sounds great but he is also a fantastic player.
yeah do this, I'm still confused with the benefit, they say it helps the intonation, but when you hit the string at certain fret the nut doesn't contributing anything to compensate with the intonation, or Am I missing something?
I could be wrong but the nut has to have some effect on intonation because all you are doing when you set your intonation is making the string longer and shorter, in most cases meqasured from the 12th fret. So I would think if you have a nut that has a ledge that sits closer to the bridge saddle it has to affect the intonation. Question is, is it REALLY worth it? I'm going to be changing out the nut on my Epiphone Les Paul to a Tusq nut. I think I'm also going to give a slight flute to the back end of the nut at the D and G string slot to try an relieve some of the bend binding issue.
Do you know if these are shipped in Eb? I bought one used, having a little trouble with the setup, it came in standard. Stays in tune but the tension on the 9s is pretty loose, and I'd rather not go up in gauge. Also have some notes fretting out on bends on the 14th and 15th frets (also happened in standard). Can't find any videos of anyone setting this up in Eb, there is one where Eddie's old tech sets up the new Frankie in standard.
A flat mounted floyd rose is seriously the way to go. I have it like that on one of my Ibanez's and it performs betting than my floating trems.
The magnet in a pickup has almost no effect at all on the sustain, it would need to be much, much stronger.
I disagree. On my strats, if I set the pickups too close to the strings, I experience terrible wolf notes on the bass strings. It's a known problem.
@@ianfrankis5298 it can also cause detuning.
@@emmjea6913 yep especially throwing the intonation way off
Hey Phillip, do like basswood as a tonewood?
Coolest person on UA-cam hands down
Thank you, That was very nice to say.
You and I have a far different definition of cool.
what does that even mean, to me this bald fat guy with a speech impediment is not very cool
+Jart he's cool because he makes unbiased videos and doesn't start shit with other youtuberrs. He also doesn't act like a damn fool while talking about gear
+Jart Well..., to each his own. But i can't see what a speech impediment, has to do with anything. I would like to see you, though, having half your jaw replaced after an accident, like Phil's, and still have a communicative charisma, and make a successfull informative channel, like Phil's, that is even mentioned and used in occations by big guitar magazines and websites. And all this, while he's sharing his content for free. Not to mention his other professional activities. Let's see what you can do better than him.
Yeah, he's cool. And even if he's fat and bald, he still looks cooler than you. Are you even an adult? Judging by your comments, you're not. Also, judging by your looks on the sole video of your channel, you're a teen. You're skinny. A gym subscription might help you. You, also, struggle growing a mustache or something, but your facial hair look too thin and scarce. You might wanna shave that,...maybe. Also your hair reminds me of something between Julia Roberts on "Pretty Woman", and Sophia Loren on "It started in Naples". Now all this might be your choice and preference, which is fine, but don't judge others by their looks, unless you want to be judged for yours too, which by the way, are much funnier than the man's you just rediculed. Also you certainly need to work on your manners, although that might not be your fault. At least not entirely.
Next time, have the courtesy, to be thankfull and kind, as an appreciation for the free content, you watched. If you didn't like it, hit the dislike button, or even stop watching, if you want to. But don't insult and harass people for what you think they look or sound like.
All the best kido.
This video really GASsed me up!! :-O
Does this guitar come with the Big Block (sustain block)? If not, is there enough room for one? Thanks!
Could you possibly make one of these videos about the Ibanez S Series? You seem to know your way around Ibanez guitars =)
These seem like facts that EVH fans would already know. I dunno. Still love the videos.
Cool video!
Good post!
Hi Philip can you please make a video of the differences between the striped series and the Frankenstein strat?
What happened to the Mono Bag video, Phil?
He used one volume control because with the marshall amp at full distortion you can change the tone with the volume knob. It also changes the distortion lower. He says it better in a youtube video somewhere. Everything else was good information. As far as i know Eddie never routed for the floyd rose, at least not in the early days.
Thumbs up!! Subbed =)
Phillip McKnight what song are you playing at 0:28?
Love it!
that is cool as heck the one pick up deal no extra magnetic pull cool as heck
super !!! keep on rockin' !!
I have a wolfgang standard amazing guitar for the money I'd say the best value out there.
I agree with you on the Standard. You can't beat them for the money. I have a Special and plan on eventually getting a Standard also.
Did you use any pedals to get that rock sound?
That would be a very nice guitar to own.
Love to see a video on music man, either Luke or Petrucci signature model.
Where can I purchase a know your gear t shirt?
hey! you should do one on the Fender Jazzmaster!!
Great video, but I have to say the question mark the the end of the title seems a bit off lol
Didn't see it immediately mentioned, but FMIC (Fender Musical Instrument Corporation) owns chavel and the EVH brand, so no licensing on the headstocks is really needed. Now any outside company such as warmoth or mighty-mite does need licensing.
That drop-tuning feature is sick! Should be mandatory on all guitars!
+Phillip McKnight: Hey Philip, what's wrong with your patreon..? I had my pledge returned, and it looks like only 166 pledges are allowed?!
I didn't know that. Thanks Phil.
i want one now... thanks philip
Awesome Phillip McKnight!!!
Thanks. I liked the extra vids you did this week.
Phillip McKnight Thanks man! Yeah im beat!! LOL!!
Correct me if I am wrong, was EV's guitar on the fist VH album was a 61 strat,,,
I don't want to be that guy but: is Mono approaching you the same way Mesa with Andertons about their infamous DI box?
I have the white and black guitar. I like it but the D tuna is hard to use. The bridge doesn't seem level so you have to bend it down to move the D tuna or it hits the body.
Hey this is great! I love this guitar, but with a Floyd Rose, (forgive me I am just a beginner), is it difficult to tune the guitar down a half step. Is it a hassle with a Floyd Rose. Will I be able to tune on the fly?
yes
Not a hassle at all. You may want to loosen the spring tension though, as being tuned down will not require as much tension, thus you will have a nice spongey tremolo action. Keep in mind, if you decide to tune back up to pitch later, you will have to tighten the springs again. I have all my guitars setup for 1/2 step down.
The bridge can't go lower than that, it means you can tune it one octave down on the fly and the bridge will stay where it is.
You should lower the tension on the springs though, otherwise using the floyd wiold be heavier, but for half a step it's minimal.
Hey Phil or anyone on here, do u think a sustain Floyd Rose big block will fit? I have a EVH striped series and it doesn't look like much room in there. I don't want to buy a big block just to find out it doesn't fit. Thanks for the video. I somewhat agree with the comment before mine about building one, but I paid under $700 for mine with a hard case in pristine condition. Building one would be cool, but I don't have the time and to at least match the quality of this guitar would probably cost the same with a case if not more. I looked online and people want too much for parts and I don't have the time to wait and find deals, but again building one would be cool. Not too mention after its all together, I'd have to pay at least $100 to have it set up. Maybe one day after I'm retired il build something cool.
Phil is there any tone advantages to having the pickups attached to the body directly like that.
there are players and builders who say yes. I do not notice much difference.
+Phillip McKnight Thank You
what is the song called again Philip plays on 0:27 ?
Great series!!!
I really like 'em all!!
I'd love to see a separate series dedicated to bass guitars...
Great guitar I love mine
I never knew he blocked off the Floyd Rose... Crazy...
Is this the same for one with circles on it?
Quick question, I'm playing in a 3 piece alt band (jazzy,ambient,but also rhcp style stuff) and I need an amp to play with them. Currently using a 15 watt Marshall but I'm looking for something different. Anyone have any suggestions?
Should add I use fuzz alot. Also I'm using an open back 212 with 2 v30s and a Tele with alnico 3s
What guitar is that on the far right Phil?
I have the Bumblebee version, not a fan of "basswood", and I had to upgrade the Floyd with a BIG Brass Block because it didnt sustain well out of the box. Otherwise it's ok for the price I guess.
Is EVH Guitars ever going to release a 5150 EVH Model?
What was that e to d tuning thing called? Can i install it on a normal floyd rose?
My Horror FestEvil D-Tuna and yes you can
Hey brother, I've heard and maybe you can cross check, that EVH's red and white stripes on his guitar is a tribute to his mother who was Indonesian born. Cheers
I have since figured, for the money, I would buy a Charvel SoCal. At least they aren't "Backordered" .
Will I be able to change the tunings on the fly, from Standard Tuning to say Open G, tuning or tuning all the strings 1/2 a step?
yes, on mine have a quick release alien wrench to unlock the nut. it takes a extra second, but you can not do it with a floating Floyd
I'm sorry a floating Floyd Rose different from a "regular" Floyd rose? I have to ask.
Yeah, this floyd only goes one way. It's hard decked when you're not using it, so it's more stable tuning wise.
does anyone know how to install a Detuner like the EVH has on a floyd or an Ibanez Edge tremolo?
Bar Goldstein did you search the internet? Bc i want to know too
Great job ,do you owe all these great guitars ?
what songs is he playing in the video?
I thought he had the Floyd on the deck because it was the 3 model ever made and there was no such thing as a "Floyd route" on guitar bodies, so he was stuck with a surface mount instead of recessed.
Yes.
Stays in tune much better
