No, I believe it is a a rosewood fretboard. The guitar is a 1998 Ephiphone Les Paul Jr. Made by Samick in Indonesia at the time. It actually took a horrendous fall one time. I glued the headstock back on, and gave it custom Olive/Army green paint job. Plays great!!

Yeah, I think so. I really like these, Rock on!

Your Welcome. Thanks for stopping by! Rock on

Needle mode is the "standard" and very fast. . For an extremely accurate tuning, use strobe mode. I use strobe mode for intonating the guitar only. Chromatic means the tuner will recognize all the notes of the chromatic scale. All 12 pitches. Hope that helps. Dont forget to subscribe! Thanks. Rock on!

They are both great. If it's your first file, I would recommend the fret guru Dagger 2.0 or one of the FULL size Z-files. The compact Z file file is great for the higher frets over the body. But, becaue of the compact size, it can get un-comfortable to hold for long periods. I really like the FretGuru 2.0. The Stew Mac stufff is real nice too, plus they have a lifetime warranty, so if it goes dull, send it in for a replacement. Can't go wrong with either. I want to get one of Fret Guru "Diamond" Daggers as well to try out. Hope that helps, Rock on!

Thanks bro, I appreciate you! rock on!

Yes sir, a crown and polish is needed after. Great for touch up jobs where only a couple, or a few frets are too high and causing buzz. If the frets are a disaster, it's time to get the long fret leveling beam out and sand all the frets level. Hope that helps. Thanks for stopping by bud, Don't forget to subscribe. thanks, keep rockin!

Good looking out, but I always try the hammer first. I got a Stew Mac Deadblow, and a gunsmith hammer just for that! Liike you mentioned, Sometimes you get lucky and the frets will hammer in further. Good, solid advice. Keep Rockin'!

Thanks bro. Yeah man, thats what its all about. Playing and having fun! Checked out your Black Star Clip. Nice! I am also a Maestro (Yngwie) fan! Rock on!

The chase continues! If I can get some free time, I'll try some more fine tuning and make another video. Yeah man, I like some of the digital stuff as well. I used some amp plugins on my last album. They are getting really good sounding! Yeah, they have all that stuff cloned already. It is almost too easy now, haha. Thanks for stopping by, Rock on

@@BrunoFreitasMusic yep, it isn't exactly the same as playing through a loud amp but lots of people don't have a place for that and you can only buy so many amps unless you're rich. I found that no matter what amp head, dist box and cab and mic I used, I still needed to reduce some of that 1K to 3K area of the frequency spectrum and maybe even boost a tad of say 6K to get the sound closer. Taking out a little 2K give or take say... 4db will smooth the sound a lot. Not sure if you tried that but anyway... just try stuff. That's what I did. Turn knobs and see if it gets closer or farther from your target. Oh, and compare to an isolated track of whatever VH song you think is a good sound. Good luck!!!

@@TruthSurgeYeah, I prefer tube amps, but I also gig with Boss Artist/Katana amps. Light weight and convenient! They sound great too. Stilll tweaking the JCM 2000, its newish to me. The isolated tracks are awesome for that, but the tones differ so much between songs/albums it's hard to target Ed's tone. You almost have to copy tones 1 song at at time. Been runnning the Lead 1, and Lead 2 channels lately on the JCM, but I'm going to experiment with the Classic gain "crunch" channel (more like a plexi) and boost that channel with a pedal. The high end is the hardest to copy for me. It's bright and has that sizzle and bite, but it's not harsh and overly bright. Thanks bro! Rock on!!

There is a part 2 on my channel. Slightly different setup and tone. Not perfect , but should get you "in the ballpark"

It is a bit expensive, but totally worth it to me. Especially with the lifetime warranty. If it ever dulls, etc. I can trade it in for a brand new one. You could improvise and probably build one with a regular fret rocker and strips of sandpaper. If you do go that route, be careful mate, and practice/test it on a shitty guitar first. haha. Good luck to you, and don't forget to subscribe, Rock On!

Yeah, I've become a fan of music nomad. Solid products. I use this kit with my Dremel. I tape off the fretboard, put a tiny dap of the frine on my frets, and with a dremel polishing wheel , shine it up beautifully. If I have tool marks from crowing files etc, I'll use a another product called FRTLAZER( German company). It comes with a fret polishing block with graduated sand paper, up to 7000 grit. It works amazing as well! Thanks for stopping by, don't forget to subcribe, rock on

Yeah, me too. They are really handy. Rock on brother!

I love them! I have 3 sets. They do a fantastic job. They feel solid, hold tune, and make string changes quick and easy. Some advice - don't overighten the tulip tuning keys! If you really crank down on them, you will get a hairline crack in the plastic. Good luck. Don't forget to subscribe, thanks!

Cool. Good to know. Just have to be careful because it is fragile! Take care bud, rock on

Cool man. Another reason to top wrap. To clear the back edge of he bridge! Rock on

When did I span the fret kisser across 4 frets?

Thanks man! 1987's are a lot of fun. I'll probably get one as well down the road (if I find a good deal on a used one). So, far this JCM 2000 is exceeding my expectations. It covers a lot of territory! From clean jazz and country tones, to full out over-saturated metal tones. What kind/brand of variac are you running? And speaker/cab?

No problem bro! Glad to help. If you haven't already, consider subscribing. Thanks, Rock on!

Wah wah battle coming soon! 🤣

Yeah man, these are really great. If you consider the lifetime warranty/replacement on his tool, I think the price is fair. Thanks for stopping by the channel! Don' forget to subscribe. Thanks Mike, rock on

You can if you want! I personally do not tape off the binding. However, it will brighten up the color of the binding (Les Pauls for example) a bit. No, problem. This is a must for me. I do this to all my guitars. I use either #0000 steel wool like the video or 600 or 800 grit sandpaper, lightly. Glad to help man! If you haven't already, consider subscribing to my channel. Thanks, rock on

Hey, did not know about your tool company. I checked out your website, and you have some cool stuff on there. If you would like me to review some of your tools, contact me at my email address. Thanks

No. It's a "HUNARD" watt head! 😆 It's a bit of an inside joke that I have with some of my friends. If you you are serious, yes it is 100 watts. Marshall JCM 2000 DSL 100. I'm using (4) JJ EL34's for the power section. If you haven't already, consider subscribing. Thanks a HUNARD! 😀

Yes. From my understanding, Les Paul Standards Classics, Customs, etc. are all the same size. There are a few exceptions. For example the Buckethead Les Paul, which is slightly bigger overall. Rock on. If you haven't already, consider subscribing to my channel. thanks

Thanks for stopping by, Cheers bro! 😃🎸

Yes, correct. There is like a 1 second delay, then it turns off on its own and your back to normal. There is a pot inside the wah pedal that you can fine tune the delay time( how long it takes it to disengage). I plan on doing a video of that function. Rock on!

Thanks Terry! Love playing VH and chasing tones. These amps are great. I picked up this head used for $500.00. Rock on

Haha thanks. It's not perfect by any means. Through my studio monitors it sounds great. But on my cell phone speaker it sounds too wet. I did pan the guitar to the left a bit as well.

@@BrunoFreitasMusic Is that just the verb from the amp?

@@darianrundallmedia1305 No, I used a plugin. Brainworx bx_rooms. The amp's spring reverb is great, but for VH, you need a big plate reverb. I cover the plugin towards the end of the video.

@@BrunoFreitasMusic sounds good.👍

@@darianrundallmedia1305 thank you bro

Yeah man, Great amps! Very versatile as well! What's wrong with your amp?

@@BrunoFreitasMusic one day it just stopped making noise, two of the preamp tubes aren't working even with different tubes in it. It still turns on but there's no noise coming out

@@1thess523 hmmm. Are all the tubes glowing? I would look at the preamp tube sockets. (Where the individual preamp tube pins are inserted). Sometimes those get opened up too far or become dirty and don't properly make contact with the preamp tube pins. Completely discharge the amp of any and all power!! Then using a tiny screwdriver or pick, You can bend the socket contacts inwards towards the center hole, so that the they grip the tube pins better and make a solid connection. If you are not comfortable, take it to an amp tech. DANGER, This amp has enough power to KILL a person!! So if you are not sure, take it to a professional.

Yeah, man. I was blown away when I first saw one. Had to get one. It's great, and so easy to use. Thanks for stopping by the channel, don't forget to subscribe! Thanks, rock on!

Thank you. Stock speakers for a Marshall 1936 cab. Celestion G12T - 75. I plan on doing more videos with this JCM2000 and more Van Halen, so don't forget to subscribe! Thanks, Rock on!

​@@BrunoFreitasMusic Subscribed! What pickups are you using in this clip?

@@richardmalar9380 I appreciate you man. The pickups are Ibanez stock v8 v7. I'm mostly a Les Paul guy, but for the Van Halen stuff, I use a beater Ibanez RG partscaster(used in this video), or a Charvel So Cal build. I've been messing with the Lead II channnel lately, and have found some more brownish tones without using my 6 band EQ. Been busy with work and gigs, bt when I get a chance, I'll post a proper video, with a real microphone etc.

Care to elaborate? Ed used a later 60's MARSHALL plexi on the earlier stuff. I think it was a late 68' or early 69' Marshall Super Lead

​@@BrunoFreitasMusicDont think so it was another kind of amp most of the time...

I heard it was a Boss Katana! l🤣

​@@BrunoFreitasMusicMeToo

Yes, still happy with them!I love these. One note, if you get them, don't over-tighten the keystone/ tulip screws. I did and got a hairline crack on one. They are some kind of plastic I did get some replacements though. Lesson learned. If you get the metal keystones, you wont have to be as carefull. Cheers!

@@BrunoFreitasMusic Great, thanks ! What are the keystone / tulip screws for? Tension adjustment on the winding peg?

@@steveb7714 Yes tension adjustment, or changing out the keystone. I was used to the metal ones, and tightening the shit out of the those because I like a tight feeling tuner. The screw runs through the center like a skewer. I over did it on one the the plastics. 😂. Just a tip, so you won't do the same. I actually have 3 sets of these exact tuners on 3 different Gibson Les Pauls. Worth every penny.

@@steveb7714 Don't forget to subscribe! Thanks!

@@BrunoFreitasMusic May have actually done that on my current set because, like you I prefer a tight feel to the tuner and they always seem to loosen up over time. Thanks again for your advice, will be subscribing.

I have the PolyTune 3 on my live pedal board and according to this video, it will drop to 432 Hz. I love that tuner and it has a built in buffer if you need it (switchable on/off) ruclips.net/video/oPWMBxpYH2w/видео.htmlsi=AOlbo7v-PbhbfAgu What is the deal with 432 Hz? I'm interested on your take. Thanks, Rock on!

@@BrunoFreitasMusic I got the Unitune. I want my money back. So the PolyTune 3 is a 432 Hz tuner? I will look into that. Thx

@@BrunoFreitasMusic Actually I wanted a clip and both the unitune and polytune clips do not go below 435 Hz. How pitiful. I don't want a pedal. I have a KORG CA-1 and it is perfect but wanted a clip for the convenience.

@@jim_andrianakos This one will tune down to the hippie/ spiritual tuning... Check out the Peterson SroboClip HD ruclips.net/video/x1mjLbsmN-E/видео.htmlsi=Rpxe8l2Yas-KSeDC According to that video, it will go from 390Hz-490 Hz. Good luck Jim. Don't forget to subscribe. Rock on!

@@BrunoFreitasMusic thank you for the advice. It is not about spirituality. It just sounds better to me. I should be able to have the option. Seems stupid to stop short of 432 Hz at 435 Hz. Subscribed.

Hey there! Great question! I don't own a Bigsby equipped Les Paul. It probably won't fit since its molded and has a pretty tight fit. If I were you, I'd contact the Gator company and ask them directly. If not this case, maybe they can recommend one that will fit. Good luck!! Rock on!

Thanks man! I posted the amp settings in the comments. If I have some free time, I'll try to do an update video for everyone with some more details, Rock on!

Haha! Love that movie! Thanks man, I'm glad you enjoyed the review. This Jazzmaster kicks major ass. I've modified it a bit for my needs and like it it even more now. Rock on bro! Don't forget to subscribe, Alright, alright alright! 😂

A bit awkward, but Yes it works. You have to be careful so you don't scratch the body. I picked up a Stew Mac compact, diamond, Z-File as well. Its smaller and more maneuverable on the higher frets. With both files I can crown just about anything. Good luck bro. Don't forget to subscribe, Thanks. Rock on!

@@BrunoFreitasMusic awesome, thanks for the reply. I did order the compact z files. They look like that's the answer for me. Thanks again.

​@@MichaelScottGuitar You got it. Cheers!

Yeah I'm loving this kit. I just bought a Dremel 4300 kit. It came with all the goodies! I'm going to go through my guitar collection and give them all a dremel treatment. Practice on my cheapos first, lol. I've read it can cause heat and melt the glue holding the frets in. have you had any issues? I'll be going low and slow. Have not tried lizard spit pads, I'll definately check them out though. thanks bro! Dont forget to subscribe! Rock on

​@@BrunoFreitasMusicIt can cause heat at a high rpm or if you bear down on it. I use a varible speed Dremel, set on a lower RPM. Works great on all my guitars. Good luck, I am sure you will enjoy the results. Light hand, low rpm you will have no probs.

@@dagguitar51 Sweet!! Thanks for the feedback. Low and slow is the plan. I'm excited to get them all shined up! Plus it will save my fingers the fatigue from scrubbing with steel wool. Rock on bro!

Thanks man! I'll try and up date it when I have some free time. I DID post some details in a few comments. here you are: "My settings were: Lead 1 Channel Presence 2 Treble 2 Mid 1-2 Bass 1 Gain 7 Tone shift and Deep button "out" (I know it looks weird, but a couple weeks ago I saw a Nuno Bettencourt rig rundown on PremierGuitar and its very close to what he's doing with his JCM 2000s. Although I think hes using Lead 2 Channel with more Bass and a Ratt to tighten up the low end. The rig rundown has close up shots of his settings. I tried his settings at my last gig and it sounded nice as well. Flanger and Phaser in the front of the amp Delay/Reverb in the EFX Loop 6 band EQ Pedal in the EFX Loop to fine tune the amp The tone was pretty damn close already, but the the MXR EQ Pedal was the icing on the cake. It has a very SLIGHT mid scoop. (Happy smile curve). Dip 400k and 800k just a little, And slightly boost 1.6k and 3.2K. I listened to Ed’s isolated guitar tracks and did an A/B test in the room, and tried to replicate that with EQ pedal. But all rigs are different, and there are WAY too many variables with just gear. And then the human element. Hope that helps bro! Don't forget to subscribe, thanks. Rock on!

@@BrunoFreitasMusic awesome thanks dude for the details cheers , ill subscribe!!!!

Yeah man, I just finished doing another guitar. It works great! Going to get a dremel for even better results with less elbow grease. I agree, Music Nomad make really solid products. I started with their guitar polish and "tune it" nut lube, and was so impressed, I now own a bunch of their stuff! Thank for for stopping and don't forget to subscribe. Rock on bro!

Yeah these are stock. I just adjusted the height a bit to balance them out. Later on, I installed a treble bleed. I would recommend that mod for this guitar. Rock on man!

Thanks Bro! I'm a big time 80's guitar fan!

@@BrunoFreitasMusic 🤘🏻😁🤘🏻

Thank man! 😃 I'm no Eddie. Or even Pete Thorn, Deraps etc., but I love playing Ed's stuff! His guitar riffs etc. always put a smile on my face. Dude, I subbed to your channel. Nice playing and I love the "alternate" tunings. Rock on man!!

I get the sound more with my Marshall 1987X plexi after I drop the voltage input to around 90 volts with the Variac! Good video though!

@@copper7733 very cool!
