@@mikeeckhart Good on ya, mate. Oh and btw I suck at the guitar for this song but I'm good at Bon Jovi songs.

[@dougjwhalen]

So many great parts and you played them perfectly Mike way to go!

[@mikeeckhart]

Thanks Doug, I always thought Neil Giraldo was greatly underappreciated

[@jacolen3791]

One of my favorite solos from a truly talented, underrated guitarist. You hit it perfectly, note for note!! Awesome job!

[@mikeeckhart]

Thanks!

[@kenhoughton2594]

Oh my god, this is true rock guitar mastery.

[@mikeeckhart]

Thanks Ken, appreciate the kind words!

[@meljohnson5579]

Bro....you nailed the Solo! So many folks get quite get it. Please post a full song/solo if you haven't already! Awesome 🥳

[@ckelly5141]

Great job Mike. One of my all time favourite solos to boot!🎸 inspiring to know that it sounds great even playing it on a strat.

[@mikeeckhart]

Thanks!

[@ckelly5141]

@@mikeeckhart And thank you Mike!

[@roadking5270]

Super nice. Clean and perfect tone dude. Thanks.

[@mikeeckhart]

Thank you

[@darincampbell171]

Excellent work! You really nailed it! I would love to see you do “ Promises in the Dark”! Mainly, because I love the solo part of that song. Still, you are a beast! Keep up the good work. Peace.

[@mikeeckhart]

Thank you Darin for the kind words.

[@wftpradiogamer]

BAD ASS! You ROCK! LOVE This

[@mikeeckhart]

Thanks!

[@kevinandtinawiller9122]

Thanks man, I have to play this again for a audition, haven’t played it in 20 years or so.
Watched a few peeps but yours was the best. I don’t need step by step just the basics & done son

[@mikeeckhart]

Thanks, good luck and have fun!

[@skooby_doobie_doonkann3334]

I knew this was on a strat especially since I listened to the isolated guitar on here. It works perfectly for this song with the classic fender single coil tune

[@gansosmansos]

Out of the park!
Spot on!

[@MrJoeytony]

I can't say i care for the guitar tone. The playing is really good.

[@mistah_nahamsha]

THIS IS REALLY GOOD!! I need a guitarist like you in my future band

[@mikeeckhart]

Sure!

[@mistah_nahamsha]

I was listening to RUclips with my phone in my pocket and it automatically switched to your video. 3/4 of the way through I pull out my phone and realize that it's your cover and not a studio recording! Incredible stuff, props.

[@mikeeckhart]

Thanks for the message!

[@Ionizap]

Neil G is a hugely underated guitar player.

[@cringecrusher]

You just earned a new subscriber

[@Never2Loud]

Well done Mike. Fun to watch. 100% nailed it.

[@mikeeckhart]

Thanks Pat! Thanks for watching.

[@Kpatrpane]

Since I love playing power chord's I followed along with your video. Thanks dude.. don't need tabs 🤘🏻

[@ChrisJones-nt1sy]

Very well played, nailed it! Can you do a cover of Shadows on the Night?

[@stratolestele7611]

Flawless. Nicely done!

[@mikeeckhart]

Thanks a lot Damon!

[@scottcraig1856]

That was perfect Geraldo

[@mikeeckhart]

Thanks for watching Scott!

[@scottcraig1856]

@@mikeeckhart That was my favorite solo to attempt to play when I was in high school. I had a band that played it for the school talent show. I wish I would’ve had your video back then to fully understand the notes and techniques of the solo. For some reason that solo is still one of my favorites of all time. Thank you again!

[@mikeeckhart]

@@scottcraig1856 Funny, I definitely wouldn't have been able to play this when I was in high school either! I remember fumbling through some of my favorite solos as well at that time, all part of the learning process I guess.

[@alexross26]

I like how you went up at 2:11 rather than play the same old. Great job man you killed it

[@mikeeckhart]

Thanks so much, Alex. I appreciate the comment!

[@rosenovamusic]

Good job! I’m planning on learning this song, so thanks for the cover video on how the whole song goes:)

[@wassermannejejejejrorofj]

Awesome cover 🔥🔥🔥

[@hoopmover123]

Very good.....

[@latinboy906]

Yup, I have to second that this is the best cover of this I've come across. How do you record your guitar?

[@mikeeckhart]

This is from several years ago, so I can't say for sure. I used to use a small Marshall practice amp but now mainly use Amplitube.

[@JasonVanDoornMusic]

Thanks Allyson!

[@smellykelley69]

seriously, man, i have the musical aptitude of a rhesus monkey but i am strongly considering buying myself an electric guitar and copying your playing. excellent!

[@mikeeckhart]

I am sure that somewhere in the depths of India there is a rhesus monkey that can absolutely shred!

[@sebasgr7753]

Great cover !!!! Amazing !!!
Which effects are u using?

[@mikeeckhart]

Thanks! It's a fairly basic setup: Fender/Roland CG-1 > DiMarzio Area 61 > Marshall > PlimSoul for boost

Good stuff man , what’s your amp settings? Great tone!
