Me too mate I'm 60 ,could toe to toe all day long with Gilmore Garry Moore Thin lizzy style playing but this wonder kid opens up doors for me I never knew!absolutely brilliant,
Cam thank you so much for the awesome videos bro. Been playing VH guitar for almost 30 years and wow man you show me new stuff I never picked up on ALL THE TIME!! Thank you dude keep up the amazing work my friend :)
Well Cam. I got my Thr30ii and dialed in to your settings and have my EVH striped series working on this amazing Van Halen knowledge for free. 😊Thanks so much.
Hey Cam. Awesome lesson! So much value in the first lick alone. It really payed off to rewatch your initial performance of the lick and zero in on all the nuances. Thanks so much for sharing.
Me Wise Magic is so great- I love both the tunes with Dave they did for that greatest hits CD- Can't Get This Stuff No More too with EVH using a talkbox for the solo for the only time he ever used one I believe
i don't know how old u are but I have a 22 year old son who appreciates Van Halen and this is nice to see nowadays!!! btw im 57 and cut my teeth on Woman and Children First
Hey Cameron, have you ever done the solo from Black and Blue? It is my favorite VH solo. It could come off as complete musical nonsense, the whole solo is Ed pretty much just making noise but it's Eddie Van Halen so, of course that "noise" is actually extremely musical, badass, HUGE, aggressive, beautiful, fun and all the other great adjectives you could throw at an EVH solo. To me, I just like to imagine Eddie mocking all other musicians by being better than them simply just by the very act of making noise.
Are those EVH guitars any good? Especially the Floyds on them? I've been seriously looking at a few but I haven't played any yet. Btw great playing and great showcase of licks
Thanks Cameron Awesome Playing As Always You Make It Look So Easy You Would Definitely Be An Amazing Guitar Teacher It’s Too Bad Your Not In The US Thanks
Hey Cameron great video I really do like how you break it down so it’s easier for us will definitely be practicing these also I have a request can we get some more Steve vai stuff been learning some stuff from ur older vids and they were fantastic so please more🙏🏾
Hey Cameron, what an amazing Eddie Van Halen guitarist u r man. I gotta know though, either u have extremely long fingers or ur frets r custom made closer 2 one another. Viewing u doing those super crazy EVH stretching licks like it's easy when it's not, has got 2 b the reason. I can also play Eruprion and many other EVH shreds, but so often after doing so, the inner part of my wrist with get an aching pain very similar 2 what's known as Carple tunnel. I may have misspelled it. Well Cameron, keep on shredding and I'll keep on watching😉👍🎸🎵🎶
CAMERON, Try to make more videos like this about CC Deville scale runs, Vinnie Moore Neo Classical Licks, Tony Macalpine arpeggios and shred licks, Doug Aldrich shaking vibrato chords, Craig Goldy arpeggios and scale licks
I get asked about White Lion a lot. Vito was a great player but overall a lot of the 80s rock stuff doesn't really interest me anymore and hasn't for ages so it's unlikely I'll be sharing ideas like that unless it's absolutely exceptional
Cameron, a little late to the party on this video but, what equipment are you using for this? The tone is almost spot on! I remember the incredible VH tone you got out of your Yamaha THX from a few years ago. What is your go to these days?
@@CameronCooper That's great Cam. I sure appreciate you and thank you for replying so quickly. Have a great one bro. Look forward to more of your EVH lessons.
is the front of the Wolfgang Special chlorine burst an arched top? like not just flat?- I want to order that guitar- its never in stock- Thank you! great video as always- you make your playing look effortless- you obviously practiced a ton!!!!
Hey Cameron,how does the neck compare between evh wolfgang special and charvel dk24 hh fr dark amber guitar?Are they the same shape and which one is thinner.
O think the great idea for the video is to show how to play very uncommon Eddie's solos , like aftershock or Amsterdam OR 5150 nobody on RUclips showed how to properly play this great solos ))
F Cam… ok, thoughts on Joe doing the tour w Sammy? Me, personally…. Absofuckinglutely!!!! It’s, Joe… he was painting when he got the call from Sammy for the announcement… However, been following you for … jeez, 5 years…. Cam, you’d be my 2nd… you really are amazing… and yeah, alternate you you, c’mon… Caleb from Nerd Halen…and Noe Van Halen… that cat… sheeeet!
I think Joe's a good choice. Glad they didn't choose a 'Van Halen clone' so to speak. Thanks for the kind words. I'd never get picked for something like that because I'm in the UK and they'd need a personality like Joe to sell tickets if they're going to tour it. If they picked a nobody that could play Van Halen better than Satch, nobody would go to the gigs.
For beginners yes it looks difficult. Evh built his own guitars, so intonation and action matter. ❤ Enjoy just grab other guitars until you can do a hammer on pull off vibrato😂😂😂😂
I get the sense he was inspired by the technique but playing building the church is a lot more complicated. Makes the sequence from judgement day appear somewhat basic in some ways.
I don't get out of bed for less than 18 mins of licks. J/K Awesome tutorial as always! 🎸🔥
You are an amazing young man im 63 you're turning me into a much better guitarist ,thank you
Me too mate I'm 60 ,could toe to toe all day long with Gilmore Garry Moore Thin lizzy style playing but this wonder kid opens up doors for me I never knew!absolutely brilliant,
Cam thank you so much for the awesome videos bro. Been playing VH guitar for almost 30 years and wow man you show me new stuff I never picked up on ALL THE TIME!! Thank you dude keep up the amazing work my friend :)
A treasure for every Van Halen fan.
Thank you.

言葉で表現するのが難しい位とても素晴らしい動画をありがとうございます!(日本の16歳より)
Awesome Awesome playing. The vibrato and big bends are my favorite! Killer tone from those fingers!

Sorry to say it but never really been a fan of Black and Blue. Just learned whatever VH I liked over the years and moved on. :)
I was waiting for a video like this!!! You're awesome Cam🤘🏻🔥
Another helpful and to the point video. Awesome as always.Thanks Cam! 🤘🔥
just ordered my own EVH guitar, so I might as well get to practicing these licks. Great vid as always Cam.
Thanks for the great content
Well done. Great camera work and great explanations! Thank you!
Awesome...... guitar too!
Cameron... I want your hands!!! Just amazing playing and helpful contents. Thanks for everything you do Cam🍻
5150 Time - Really Good Licks Cameron! I always learn so much - Time to go pick up the Guitar.....
very polished very nice
i love how you play man, really apreciate you!
Thank you!
Yes this I what a needed today. I’d love to hear your take on the aftershock outro solo
Watch the previous vid ;)
You’re the man and I really appreciate the great content. I even turned on notifications
I appreciate that! Good man!
Veey accurate. Thanks a lot. Hope you can teach the solo of can't get this stuff no more
I taught some of it in this
EXCELLENT...Thank you very much!!!
Great video Cameron , love the sound too - really spot on . Is it just the Yamaha THR30 ??? Better representation than some using Fractual
This is just a Yamaha THR30II
I’ve been looking for these licks for SO LONG thanks man! 👍
Are those EVH guitars any good? Especially the Floyds on them? I've been seriously looking at a few but I haven't played any yet. Btw great playing and great showcase of licks
Yeah they're awesome!
wow Theres so many guitars in the background......awesome!
Each nd every licks are very helpful.. thank you.
Great job bro! 👊

Happy new year Cam....been a while, great to have you back 🤘🏼😈🤘🏼
Nice one cam, hope you had a good Christmas and happy new year! 🤘🏻🎸🤘🏻
Amazing talent ❤🎶

You already sound like you know what you're doing to be fair.
@@CameronCooper try to make a Zakk Wylde licks lesson watch this guy to get the licks from ruclips.net/video/_jbSQzXiLb4/видео.html
Those licks have been taught online. Watch Andy James' Zakk Wylde lesson. He mentions it in the description of the video you linked.
always great!!!
Amazing 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Awesome lessons and your guitar sounds super hot! Do you use a microphone or line out from the Yamaha?
USB so I guess a line out aha
@@CameronCooper Thank you 🙏
When I saw the thumbnail for a moment, I thought it was for Dan Huff! :)
Great stuff as usual! Do you like white lion? Would be awesome to cover some of Vito Bratta's stuff, they're super under appreciated imo
I get asked about White Lion a lot. Vito was a great player but overall a lot of the 80s rock stuff doesn't really interest me anymore and hasn't for ages so it's unlikely I'll be sharing ideas like that unless it's absolutely exceptional
@@CameronCooper that's a shame, i love his playing but everyone gets burned out listening to the same genres eventually
You’re amazing
Have you used the 5150 OD pedal on the THR30II? I put it on the clean channel you made on the other video and it sounds really nice to me
I've not... never needed the EVH overdrive since the THR30II sounds good on its own
Cameron, a little late to the party on this video but, what equipment are you using for this? The tone is almost spot on! I remember the incredible VH tone you got out of your Yamaha THX from a few years ago. What is your go to these days?
This is the Yamaha THR30II here but I use the Blackstar AMPED 3 for everything these days.
@@CameronCooper That's great Cam. I sure appreciate you and thank you for replying so quickly. Have a great one bro. Look forward to more of your EVH lessons.
@@chuckhalen9543 Cheers Chuck! I don't know if or when I'll be uploading any more VH lessons but I really appreciate the kind words mate.
Epiiiiiiic!
You gotta teach us some licks from the mine all mine solo
Banger tone you got dialed in. What fx you using?
Yamaha THR30II and that's it. Tagged the amp in the video
Great jamming.... I have no idea what any of those riffs are though.
I do say their names in the video
@@CameronCooper I watched again...I was focused on your playing...Well Done man!!!👍🎸👍
having major deja-vu here. feel like ive seen this video exactly before. great stuff though, don’t blame myself
I uploaded a similar lesson a couple of months back
Killer!
Amazing video! Thank you SO much Cameron :) how can i send you some support for work like this??
Like subscribe and share. 👍🏻
is the front of the Wolfgang Special chlorine burst an arched top? like not just flat?- I want to order that guitar- its never in stock- Thank you! great video as always- you make your playing look effortless- you obviously practiced a ton!!!!
It is an arched top
@@CameronCooper cool I thought so! thanks!
Is there a specific way you set up a string action, pickup height neck reliëf?
Nope. So long as it doesn't buzz I'm happy.
What gauge strings do you use on the striped series and Wolfgang?
09-42
💪😎🎸 KILLA 🎸💯
Hey Cameron,how does the neck compare between evh wolfgang special and charvel dk24 hh fr dark amber guitar?Are they the same shape and which one is thinner.
They're both totally different. Charvel feels far better to me. The Wolfgang has a tiny neck in every respect.
🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
What is your string action ?
High enough for it to sound good and still be playable. It varies on every guitar I play
@@CameronCooper For me it‘s hard to play with a super low action can you relate to this?
@@josefplager Yes, definitely! If action is too low, it limits bending and makes the guitar sound buzzy in my experience. I prefer it higher
what is your string gauge?
09-42 or 10-46 depending on the guitar
O think the great idea for the video is to show how to play very uncommon Eddie's solos , like aftershock or Amsterdam OR 5150 nobody on RUclips showed how to properly play this great solos ))
Watch the first video linked in description ;) A lot of people don't talk about those solos because they're easier to play than explain aha
@@CameronCooper yea ) but it's not the entire solos ) did u see anyone who played 5150 solo properly ? I don't )
There are loads of 5150 solo covers out there. It's very similar to a lot of Ed's solos.
You said GIANT licks. You know what that means right? It means we need some Dann Huff licks next!
Do we need them ?
@@CameronCooper I think we do!
Awesome video though, there's no such thing as too much Van Halen.
F Cam… ok, thoughts on Joe doing the tour w Sammy?
Me, personally…. Absofuckinglutely!!!! It’s, Joe… he was painting when he got the call from Sammy for the announcement…
However, been following you for … jeez, 5 years….
Cam, you’d be my 2nd… you really are amazing… and yeah, alternate you you, c’mon… Caleb from Nerd Halen…and Noe Van Halen… that cat… sheeeet!
I think Joe's a good choice. Glad they didn't choose a 'Van Halen clone' so to speak. Thanks for the kind words. I'd never get picked for something like that because I'm in the UK and they'd need a personality like Joe to sell tickets if they're going to tour it. If they picked a nobody that could play Van Halen better than Satch, nobody would go to the gigs.
Nice!
But I’m sorry, you just don’t have enough guitars 🤣🤣🤣
🇮🇪🇸🇩🤘
Where's the Harley Benton? 😁
Which one?
For beginners yes it looks difficult. Evh built his own guitars, so intonation and action matter. ❤ Enjoy just grab other guitars until you can do a hammer on pull off vibrato😂😂😂😂
I wonder if Vai was inspired by Judgement Day to create Building A Church? Looks like it to me. Same position and close in sound.
I get the sense he was inspired by the technique but playing building the church is a lot more complicated. Makes the sequence from judgement day appear somewhat basic in some ways.
