Eddie created the Motorhead guitar sound, played with tons of feel and balls, pure instinctive guitarrist, perfect match with Lem & Phil. They're rockin' up there somewhere right now!
Eddie absolutely gave Motorhead "that sound" that they never let go of. I don't say this often but truly overlooked in hard rock history. Great player man!
One of the most overlooked in the history of hard music! Innovator..., visionary. Listen to the covers of MOTORHEAD songs during the "fast eddie" era..., hardly anyone can capture the essence of this player. Jeez..., just the sound he got out of his instrument is incredible!!!
I've always loved Eddie's guitar playing he was quite clever using a strat over lemmy's bass sound that's partly why Motorhead never sounded the same without him
@George Varotsis he did say the best but not technically and as far as motorhead goes i would say eddie wasnt that technical of a player which is why i loved his playing
R.I.P. EDDIE~ 1st came across you as a 23y old in 1977. because john peel played.the 1st ever single "Motorhead" on his show.that solo knocked me out, and i brought the single. Cheers Eddie!
Eddie (RIP) . No hay duda de que con tu Profesionalismo de guitarra dejaste una huella imborrable en lo que es MOTORHEAD. Nosotros los fans te llevamos en el ♥️ y consideramos que estás en el mismo escalón de LEGEND de la guitarra
I know not everyone will agree but Fast Eddie is the Original and Best. I've seen Motorhead many times over the years, the were my very first gig in 1979 aged 13. I've seen them in every decade since and although I very much like the current line up. It's just not the same, there was more energy back then, they rocked that hard you had punks and metal fans in the audience equally in awe!
Saw them back in 78 when they first started out with Eddie - they were great! Just ferocious rock and roll, loved Eddie's tone and playing, still do - good on yer Eddie!!
I like the way the beginning of the solo is Black Sabbath's Supernaut. I've never caught that after hearing this song a million times. I guess because he plays it extra fast during the song. Fast Eddie Clarke is a guitar stud. Killer Fender Strat.
@88mpny yes, DiMarzio X2N in bridge, Dimarzio SDS-1 in neck, standard Fender single coil in middle, Gibson frets, chromed brass pickguard. Once it was fitted with a stndard Fender tremolo, now a Kahler locking tremolo.
My uncle gave me a little toy when I was a kid and it was called "Fast Eddie", because he was the fastest toy in the world :). I think my mum still has him somewhere💙
eddie clarke used to leave motorhead all of the time and lemmy asked him back but when they were making one of thier albums lemmy was told that eddie had left the band because of an arguement and lemmy didn't ask him to come back
Because the manufacturing of the good freon was discontinued. Once Motorhead couldn't put that freon into their motorcycle crankcases, things just weren't as cool anymore. You know, when your motor is reving well into the red, thats when the Rock & everything else gets HOT. The promo girl says you got a hot tube and shows you the full stack. Too long at redline, the crank might let loose and blow out through your head. Thats when you got a "killer crank" going around making people duck for cover
With all due respect for Phil, Fast Eddie is the master of Ace of spades :D Somebody knows where I can find the correct tab for Ace of spade (the fast eddie version) ? Thanks a lot !

Or down there, but running the place!
Should be remembered forever just for this lick alone
For sure!!
He had this Blues-efficiency with spot-on notes; great feeling, no noodling
That's the way I live.....
This guy lost his two best friends in less than a year. He`s still going.
Love ya, Eddie
The last Original Motörhead
Rest easy Eddie, i know you wont you’ll be playing the loudest music up there with Lemmy and phil
@@missespinky2810 Not now.

Lol, Fuckin A! I literally just posted the same thing. He gave them "that sound" they never let go of 🤘

Fast eddie rules, Motorhead was never the same without him.
Yes I agree
Not the most technical, but still the best Motörhead guitarist. Kilmister-Clarke-Taylor forever.
Soul men rock !
Doesn't have to be technical, it's what works for you and the band. Great sound, great music and great band. Go Eddie!
I respectfully disagree. Eddie Clarke made Motorhead who they were.
Technicals for deathmetal loving wussies.
@George Varotsis he did say the best but not technically and as far as motorhead goes i would say eddie wasnt that technical of a player which is why i loved his playing

R.i.p Fast Eddie...you are not forgotten...you were great ...thanks for memories...only with you in the lineup Motorhead were at best 🤟🇮🇹
Insane tone. Fast Eddie is my hero
Too much drive xD
@@Tobi-zj6oh Motorhead needs high-gain.
THIS IS MOTORHEAD! overkill, stay clean, bomber, ace of spades, no class, iron fist, damage case.....
RIP you metal god.
”ROCK N ROLL”

His guitar sounds absolutely amazing when he let's that G chord ring out during the verse section.
I fuckin love this shit. I could listen to Eddie Clarke play riffs all day.I'll never understand why people don't love this guy.
I do.
Me too
Saw them back in 78 when they first started out with Eddie - they were great! Just ferocious rock and roll, loved Eddie's tone and playing, still do - good on yer Eddie!!
One of the most underrated guitarists ever.
Rip great Eddy 😘😘😘
Rip Eddie, my major inspiration. And that guitar is the reason why I started to love Strats!
Eddie, you are deeply missed and I hope you, Phil and Lemmy are having I good time when you are playing together up there !!! ♠⭐♥
Love his playing.. his strat.. especially his 1st fastway album, the guitar work is my style 100%
Actually, it's mine.....
The man was the sound of Motorhead....
Just incredible....wish he had more years

Iconic, timeless, hope they’re having many heavenly reunions!
ONE OF THE GREATEST GUITAR PLAYERS EVER TO WALK THIS EARTH, period. Absolute unit, a freaking monster
It just works. It's pure rock and roll. OG Badass
He always had a good tone with the Strat and Marshall. RIP
Even in FASTWAY Eddie played awesome riffs....
@88mpny yes, DiMarzio X2N in bridge, Dimarzio SDS-1 in neck, standard Fender single coil in middle, Gibson frets, chromed brass pickguard.
Once it was fitted with a stndard Fender tremolo, now a Kahler locking tremolo.
I'm a jazz drummer. That was awsome! Fast Eddie Clarke. Now that is rock and roll.
R.I.P fast Eddie
this dude is a legend
Best Heavy Metal Guitar Sound ever !!! Fast Eddie R.I.P. !
Rock n roll guitar, mate
Fender needs to build a Eddie Clarke model!!!
That was some Ace playing
Eddie should have had a signature Stratocaster, shame on you Fender, shame on you!
I know he got a lot out of Ritchie Blackmore from Deep Purple. All the guys in Motorhead were huge Purple fans.
Looks like a DiMarzio X in the bridge?. and a Dimarzio single in the front.
King of the riffs.
R.I.P. Eddie
50 ans de hard rock dans la peau ...énorme guitariste
eddies fucking awesome,hes like the perfect example of the kickass oldschool rock/metal guitarist!!
Fender, please release a fast Eddie Clark signature Stratocaster
che suono strepitoso che ha questa stratocaster. comunque lo stile di eddie è inconfondibile. eddie is motorhead and motorhead is eddie!!!!!!!!
Great. This man rocks.
who knew a stratocaster could acheive such a ballsy sound? Serious tone!
Eddie is the best!
Adios great men of Motorhead...
Simply the best.
RIP Fast Eddie Clarke
Nothing better then a well played guitar, nothing more exiting...
Fast Eddie is sunonymous with Motorhead.
The best dirtyblues rock sound on .
Absolute Rock N Roll mayhem!
The sound of Motorhead the sound of Heavy Metal 🎸
The most shocking riffs I heard in my life
R.I.P Eddie🤘🤘🍻🍻⚰⚰😢
I idolise everyone from motorhead all my favourite instrument players
the ACE of STRATS
I love that Strat
Rest in peace!
Perfect Match in Motorhead with Lemmy both play not in technical sense but feel
My uncle gave me a little toy when I was a kid and it was called "Fast Eddie", because he was the fastest toy in the world :). I think my mum still has him somewhere💙
Well, he's still got it!
Perfect fucking sound
Unsung hero
Grande Eddie !!!
@Farquharson64 also had something to do with the cover of "stand by your man" with wendy o, or so i hear
The proof that guitar is an expression instrument.
that stratocaster is a beast
God!!
He is one of my musical idols (others like steve Vai, Morello etc.)
eddie clarke used to leave motorhead all of the time and lemmy asked him back but when they were making one of thier albums lemmy was told that eddie had left the band because of an arguement and lemmy didn't ask him to come back
Epic distortion tone
legend
sweet 70's strat!
Motörhead Sound pur! Ohne ihn kein solcher Sound.
That's the way it's done!
I would spend hours and hours just making that G... f**** Christ!!!!
Times like these I'm glad I brought a 1970s Fender Stratocaster.
i agree man... fast eddie was the fuckin best
fast eddie rocks.funny as fuck and co wrote ALL of motorheads best songs.so there.ive said it,i feel better.
Because the manufacturing of the good freon was discontinued. Once Motorhead couldn't put that freon into their motorcycle crankcases, things just weren't as cool anymore.

The Best, Come On to Brasil Man !!! ;-D
It sounds like the tiniest bit of flange, and probably not all that much gain.
Nice tone!
@TerroneByGraceOfGod best setup IMO
the legend !
@Farquharson64 He thought lemmy was too interested in fooling around with wendy of the plasmatics than work on albums,so he left.
How the hell do they do it
With all due respect for Phil, Fast Eddie is the master of Ace of spades :D Somebody knows where I can find the correct tab for Ace of spade (the fast eddie version) ? Thanks a lot !
Superb
Rest In Peace
Power !
The best
Mestre
Legend
That sound...
