BTW... I have another video coming this week featuring another guitar that you may find interesting ;)
Is it Brian May's Guitar
First
Awesome can't wait
Thats awesome man. I wanna start making videos but i have no recording equipment at all
Hey my dad just died yesterday from cancer and he liked eddie since there first record and he got me into Van Halen and I’ve listen to them my hole life I was building my own guitar but I didn’t get done in time but seeing this video today meant a lot to me and I think my dad is trying to tell me something
“Rock stars come and go. Musicians play until they die.” - Eddie Van Halen.
Eddie was a true musician. R.I.P.
There are no more rockstars :s
what a legend.

The frankenstrat is the ultimate guitar. Everyone wants their hands on it, but it will forever be Eddie’s.

Such a drama queen
Tyler: "I can't do any better than this guitar. I've peaked."

1 year later: so ehm, we got this 13.7 billion year old 4 dimensional guitar from god himself

"What is wrong with you, It is just a piece of wood..." - Eddie Van Halen
Tommy Emmanuel said something like that too apparently.
Technically yes, but no
@@kardesh9840 Eddie wanted to say that You have to look at the guitar and your playing through children eyes. That way everything is possible and there is no rules.
Eddie even tried to play slide slide on nylon, just to see what will happen. Idk how that went lol, but You got the point. Cheers 🍻🍻
@@kenz2756 Yes he did. He is that type of character. They try it all, if you destroy the guitar or gear, you will simply get another one.. That is that awesome rare mindset. I have it also, that is why i understand them all, but i value and nurse my guitars, i do not have milions like them.. Yet :) If i broke my 64Strat or my RG... Idk... I would die.... They just get another... No empathy for gear and guitars, that is them. No rules. That is why history will always remember those people. Inventor mindset.
@@hetjamesfield4473 Slide on nylon actually sounds good. I tried it before in open g and it sounds like a regular steel string, unless you hit open strings.
I was fortunate to have that exact guitar in my studio for a couple weeks about 20 years ago. The Bass player in my band at the time is very good friends with Kevin, they grew up together. It was a joy for sure.
I'm so jelly
Damn, that’s so cool.
@@FunkVT I would include a photo, but not sure it is possible in RUclips comments.
@@scawley101 I feel honoured to even speak to a person that held such greatness haha
@@dylannnnnnnnn I have some pics with it, unable to post them here. It was fun to have, though I cannot play that tapping technique that well, just a little! Kevin came to the studio a few times over the years, nice guy! I just realized that my account pic is me with the guitar, D'oh!
2020 was a hard year for a lot of people but when Eddie Van Halen died it crushed me. I was addicted to Van Halen in middle school. I mean a borderline unhealthy addiction. I would have cried after opening that case.
So was I. That was got me into music.
Same here brother!!! Eddie and I share the same birthday!! 1/26/55 & 1/26/87
Jesus Christ died for your sinsss
@@jesuslovesyou2616 - Yes He did! But what has THAT got to do with THIS?! SO random...

The asshole Hendrix estate: No... I don't think we will
@@cakenbolls442 they arent assholes for not letting an annoying youtuber play it
@@breezecam1099 somebody doesn’t like Tyler yet is still watching him. Hmm
EVH >>>> JH
I think hendrix was left handed, so that would put a damper on it
Eddie would be laughing at us all for making such a big deal out of this 😂
Absolutely - and that's a big part of why it's a big deal.
@@FT-64 That's deep.
@@TheEchelon lol
Probably but that's one of the reasons why he's such a legend
True
This was legit emotional to watch.
Unbelievable he’s been gone for a year today. I would probably have cried if I held that guitar. Thanks for the wonderful video. And thank you for everything King Edward.
didn't need to hold it. cried anyway
@@monabale8263 ya I’m still processing it as well.
This guy is gonna play the Red Special soon if he continues with these
there is one and only RS and i guesss he will have a try when Brian give up guitar
Frankenstrat is more special imo
@@mn-mq6ml yea I mean the main thing is Brian May is not dead. I think it is a little more special to play a guitar that a dead legend used...
I’m sure that Brian will never ever give his guitar away. He might be able to play it if he ever meets Brian, but he’s never ever be able to play it at home like this one
Nah Brian would never give is guitar to someone else like that without meeting them in person
EVH would be so proud. :)
R.I.P. Eddie Van Halen 1955-2020.
He Would be more than proud but EVH is still happy and still the best rock and roll guitarist 🤘
4-12-2021: Thanks for getting this comment up to 100 likes! :D
@@AIt-Girl Hey.
Please Tyler has NOTHING on EVH watch Tyler play live and try to tell anyone EVH would be proud. It’s one thing to sound good in the studio
4-12-2021: Thanks for getting this comment up to 200 likes! :D
you really did justice to that guitar when you played it
"Do you want to play Van Halen's guitar?" is in the same category of questions as "Do you want to breathe?"
Heck, I've barely ever touched steel string guitars to say nothing of electrics but I'd still jump at the chance to strum a few chords on that relic.
Words don’t describe how jealous I am to see him play that guitar
Oh my. I saw the picture and was like "what the duck?" Did I comment already? How? Lol jk but nice picture
Man, we miss him:(
@@benp3321 we all do :(
Can we just appreciate Tyler’s EVH style playing and tone
Terrific playing, not a tone of the playing imo
@@Frazer227 it’s a bit too fuzzy I think
The tone sucked
@@cooper2616 most fuzz tones do to me tbh
@@thef4lsepr0phet Yea, I don't really like them either.
R.I.P Eddie, your guitar tone will forever remind me of sunny weekends as a kid in the 80"s, they were the best times of my life. Cheers brother.
I've watched your channel for a long while now and I gotta say your truly an inspiration of determination to make what you love what you do! keep it up Tyler you deserve to play these legends!
Still hard to accept that Eddie is gone 😢 seeing you pull it out of the case gave me goosebumps. RIP EVH you will never be forgotten.
i cried at the moment
I forgot as soon as it happened. He wasn't that great of a guitarist I could name better.
I wish he sucked so I could agree, because I cherish you :’(
I also got goosebumps, and also shed a tear. Really emotional video for me. Nice work Tyler.
@@faceachenz8441 yes, evh is the reason why i pick up my guitar and addicted to it, when i saw this video i remember him and i remember how i start.
Now you have to play Stevie Ray Vaughan’s guitar with his 13 gauge strings
Sadly number one is pretty much unplayable without a neck replacement.
@@exhoost_fume4646 how do you know this? I was really hoping this video was going to be #1
@@zgmacd the original neck for it was broken and got replaced but when Stevie passed they put back on the original neck so that’s why you couldn’t play it
@@connertaggart8403 actually the replacement is the one that was snapped. The one Martinez had swapped on it from "Scotch". The original was just worn down and had been swapped about a month before the speaker accident. The neck SRV used for the last few months of his life was a replacement from fender. Martinez then put the original back on it. I live in Austin and have seen the guitar a million times. Neck is still playable just not going to be easy nor fun as it's worn down to ruler width levels 🙃
You can’t play it because it’s handing in the Smithsonian Museum in D.C. If I could post a pic of it I would.
How awesome is that! I was expecting a gold light to shine out when he opened the case like that scene from Pulp Fiction when Vincent opened Marsellus' briefcase.
Dude I cannot tell you how many times I've watched this frickin video - it gives me chills hearin you absolutely shred on it
Ed was a very generous man. he gave away a lot of guitars and amps. Ed was a good man, the world is a lesser place without him. Oh, and he was one hell of musician.
Amen
@DESCENDING Never forget that one!
I believe he's has given Jerry Cantrell equipment in the past
i believe he told jerry cantrell “when you’re famous everyone just gives you things. it should be the other way around”
yeah he gave Jerry cantrell a fucking garage full of stuff, including a goldtop ernie ball evh music man
I hope that that guitar gets purchased by someone who will play it instead of just sticking it onto some wall. It deserves to be played.
it will 99.99% be hanged as a display
id be scared to mess it up
Auction closed on 24th with 0 bids so yeah, kinda sad.
@@getout467 how much were they asking?
@@ponderingypanda minimum bid was 400k i think
it was nice to hear that guitar again. i am happy you got to feel the joy you did while playing it. man, that's awesome!
Wow what a moment. Thank you.
so van halen is my favorite band of all time, and when eddie passed i legit cried all day, because van halen means so much to me. and seeing that guitar pop out of that case made me tear up a little. thank you for paying homage to the king.
Having worked a head and neck cancer ward, it just made it worse to not only know he was gone but to understand what he probably suffered through in the process. RIP Eddie.
This guy gonna play SRV's guitar in the future and I'm calling it right now.
We can only hope.
@Peter Martins right on. Stevie is under rated and forgot about outside of us blues hounds. Idc what anyone says, he's better than Hendrix.
@@joshuagibson2520 No Hendrix, No Stevie. At least, not how we know him.
@@brettadkins4698 I can't argue with that. Very true.
@@joshuagibson2520 When I first heard Stevie's cover of Little Wing, I didn't realize that it WASN'T Hendrix at first. But then Stevie's unmistakable sound broke through and I realized I was listening to something altogether different. And than before I knew it, he morphed back into Jimi. SRV was truly one of a kind.
Dude your so chill. I’d be pretty emotional just being in the same room as that thing
Some crazy tones going on here, sounds great. What an awesome experience, congrats
Tyler, your guitar skills have ascended by 500% for just touching the Frakenstrat. I am envious.
That’s not the frankenstrat though is it?
That's not the Frankenstrat, it's a Kramer from the 1980's designed after the Frankenstrat.
@@brentcollinsmusic I got a little to ahead of myself. That Kramer really brought the fanboy out of me haha
@@wolfpac1970 I see. Thank ye
Yeah. I heard you gain permanent +5 to dex and charisma for just equipping it.
Female mobs attack on discovery, though. And you have to fight them off with a stick.
We want Almighty Lil Wayne's Guitar next time🙌🙌🎸
😐
😐
😑
But will he be able to channel Lil Wayne's incomparable licks and skills? ???
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Man You did EVH proud!
Thank you for sharing your talent with us and also thank you too Got to have Rock and Roll company for letting you have a chance to play one of our Hero's guitar. Much Love and Respect!
Thank you for grinding away all these years, the youtube algorithm I'm sure is stressful to stay on top of, your content is definitely appreciated! And congratulations on the historic moment and opportunity!
You seamlessly covered everything anybody would want to hear on Eddie's Guitar.
Exactly! This is what makes Tyler's channel stand out from the rest. He walks the walk.
I was waiting for him to play the intro to women in love, hot for teacher and Mean street. 😪
Drop dead legs is one of my favorites I would have liked to hear but I’m not gonna complain
@@kingzriot976 I was waiting to hear the intro to Mean Street, favorite song off my favorite album. I would have taken D.O.A or House of Pain as a second choice, but...I'm the One works too, so props to Tyler for that.
I know it's strange but as a guitarist losing Eddie Van Halen has hit me rather hard. I've never met the man but yet I miss him. The world definitely feels different without his energy.
Same!
I feel the same buddy!
Agreed...
I feel the same way about SRV and Neil Peart. 😢
@@michaelvanbuskirk8845 most definitely. Very talented and very missed musical legends
Congrats on all your success man! love your videos
Any kind of EVH guitar or replica has some sort of magic inside it. I played on an EVH franken replica at my local music store and it felt... otherworldly playing on it.
"Mom can we get some Unchained?"
"We have Unchained at home"
Unchained at home: 13:36
Lol
RIP EDDIE
He is still the screensaver on my phone ever since I heard the sad news
I see you're a man of culture as well
My screensaver is cliff burton since I got the phone.
@@cheersbro7347 my man
I still have him as my Lock Screen and the frankenstrat stripes as my home screen
Same 😂 my lock screen, A painting of eddie
What an experience...very special!
That "I'm the One" riff - love it!!!
Man. You have the most iconic piece of history in your lap right there. The Clapton guitar was cool, but THE Edward Van Halen 5150 piece? That thing changed rock music forever! The feather in your cap would be to play his original Frankenstrat! THIS, though is truly awesome! Thank you for this video!
Is it just me, or can you feel a piece of Eddie's soul coming out of that guitar?
Word brother...I agree
Just you
for sure
It’s magical how you can feel that even from here 😭
Best EVH tone I’ve ever heard. Honestly didn’t think it would sound exactly like him.
I’m sure using his actual guitar helps but he also knows a lot about Eddies techniques
thou play thy van halen shall become thy van halen, the power of eddie van halen is unable to be recreated, hence making him the last of his kind. legendary powers that he humbly lends to us if we choose to use it.
Amazing! Thank you for these videos. I don't play guitar, but I love the music. Both you and Corey Wong are doing a great service to guitarists by helping us truly understand how talented and inventive the greats of the guitar are. I have a whole new level of appreciation for what they do, and I'm diving down musical rabbit holes enjoying it all again with fresh ears. You rock!
Honestly one of my favorite videos you've ever made.
What an honor that is! That is a marvel of an instrument. Such an immense opportunity that must have been to have been able to hold it and play it.
So glad all the work you put into your content let’s you do stuff like this you’re amazing!
Love Van Halen not only for their music per se, but also for what they brought to the table. EVH's Piano-like approach to the guitar has flourished in so many ways!, beautiful Yvette Young's music from Covet comes to mind.
I’m waiting for the day you get lil Wayne’s guitar that he played that insane solo on
Lmao! 😂
😂😂😂😂
You're expecting too much , no billionaire will ever be able to get that guitar , it's legendary
Savage
Stevie T tripped and knew why when this comment was left.
Valerie Bertinelli said she was finding it difficult to live in a world without Eddie Van Halen. I was thinking, “I hear you Val, I hear you.”
That is a replica of one of the most famous guitars in the world.....that was played on tour by Ed.
Dweezil Zappa owns what is probably THE most famous guitar...the guitar that was set on fire by Jimi Hendrix(Jimi gave it to Dweezil's dad Frank) Dweezil found it in pieces at his dad's house and reassembled it.....😉👍
Keep going with the series. I love it
I always remember that interview EVH did with that MTV guy where he is walking thru the studio and Ed says ... it's music THEORY man not music law so why not experiment... Many of EVH experiments turned out really well!
Oh yeeeeaaahh (in James hetfield voice)
YEAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH
Oooooohhh jeahhhhh
YEAEYYY-YEAAHHHHHH!
the influence Eddie is to all of us is second to none. We can all see it in your eyes Tyler. Amazing video
If I had the opportunity to play Eddie's original guitar, first I would cry for a few minutes for having that honor... second, I would hug the guitar for a few minutes and be thankful for having the privilege of touching his guitar, and only then I would play something... dude, you have the best life! Thanks for sharing!
Crazy how the tone is 1:1. Literally perfect.
I didn’t know a single guitar could make me cheese so much from just the sound, never less the immaculate playing
What an awesome opportunity! Congrats dude
Love the videos. Thank u. This one brought up some emotions. Awesome.
Proof that you do not need a $5000 guitar to make history, change the world and influence almost EVERYONE after you who picks up a guitar to play rock music. A $200 guitar with a proper setup and modded to your taste can do all that, the rest is practice, dedication and talent.
U are correct sir
You buy that 5000$ guitar when you run out of ideas. Eddie couldnt even bought what he was looking for, he litteraly needed to build his own guitar. I`m on EVH binge and on the brink to stop playing. This man was litteraly God of Music.
I owned a nice Kramer but hell ,no one is as good as Eddie was. He was the best. 🙏 🤘
@@HadesMiscreant no doubt he invented shit and perfect shit that was already a thing he wasn’t a guitar legend he was a guitar god of his time!
Tyler: I cant pull up on the tremelo, but I can drop it a _little bit_
*Drops to a Zmajor4*
My favorite note
*Q*
I don't know if you were using a signature amp or what, but the tone that was coming out of that guitar was giving me chills beyond belief. It was utter perfection. My gosh does it look like you're having fun too man. I absolutely love it.
This was a win for you in every way.
Congrats for having this experience.
I really didn’t think I would cry, man I miss Eddie
@JJM That means literally nothing. You can miss someone who you never knew personally.
Beautiful to hear the SOUND coming from the tool he hammered on. I also was touched friend, wiped a few tears off my eyes. :(
@JJM dude, language is just a tool to convey our thoughts and emotions. Are you actually having trouble understanding what his comment meant, or are you just bored and being an ass? You are dissecting his comment to an embarrassing degree.
@@jestaman3356 fr, his comment came off very disrespectful and disregarding to someone still grieving and thinking of Eddie, we're all still thinking of him I think
@@matthashobbies Yeah it was pretty cringe to read both of his comments. Super disrespectful for many reasons... happy I'm not the only one who thought his comments were completely uncalled for and inappropriate.
edit: checked out your channel. you are a great guitarist dude, keep it up!! \m/
Hes going to be shredding on Prince's purple guitar soon
Yes,!,,,,DoooooooooD..!....so cool..that purple guitar should be drop D'd..and played at 11...😯
I believe I would cry... honestly
Savage shredding bro....you did it more than justice..thank u
You are blessed Tyler. I am super happy for you. I am glad the Gotta Have Rock and Roll hooked you up. Something that strikes me is these guitars were gifted by a special man and I see them auctioned for insane amounts of money. These people who where blessed by the generosity of such a giving man who be more blessed paying it forward and auctioning for charity. Like Mr. Holland’s Opus Foundation. That would be so heartwarming.
That said, I have always thought the Kramer 5150s during the 86 tour were the single most beautiful guitars ever. Again, I am so happy for you.
Looks like Eddie's signature sound wasn't just guitar only, but his amps played a huge part.
And van halen's hands as well
I think his sound was in his fingers.
There's a Rick Beato video about the amp sound
@@briangray6476 nope. Can we all just stop with the "the tone us in the hands" bullshit? I 100% guarantee you that if Tyler plugged into Deadie van Helen's exact rig, he would sound so insanely similar to deadward himself but of course it wouldn't be exact but very very close. The tone comes from the guitar, pickups, amp, and speakers.
@@kitten-whisperer but technique and gear are only part of it, the feel and touch one has with their guitar does in fact have a part as well in the sound....you could play note for note like Eddie but if you dont have the touch you will never have that true "sound" of Eddie, because Eddie did things off of pure feel, not because of machines....
“I think i see some blood on here” Charman ultra soft add comes on
😂😂‼️
bruh it came on as i read this 😂😂
Pete Townshend of The Who was doing his famous windmill onstage once and actually impaled his hand on his whammy bar-clean through the palm of his hand...and was so out of it he hardly felt it and pulled it out and carried on playing!
Mine did the same, but it was for bounty😂😂
“Quick! The Quicker Picker Upper!”
Awesome Tyler,,,,great guitar and you did a brill job creating VH style....sounded fab :)
Always love to hear you play and ripping on that stupidly famous Kramer the way you did was so pleasing, you do it justice and that's high high compliment!
Didn’t wolfgang say many times this isn’t a special guitar, it was a personal gift from eddie to the person who’s selling it?
These guys trying to make a buck!!!
RIP Edward Van Halen
1955-2020
This is by far my favorite Music is Win video yet.
Someone like yourself deserves that guitar . Awesome brother just awesome . I needed a pick me up tonight and this video did just that with all the crazy going on in the world . Thank you
8:17 cc deville does something similar to that on the life goes on solo, unrelated i just love that style of bend tapping lmao
Can't believe Eddie is no more with us now. You have inspired us so much sir. People like you deservingly go to heaven to give rock pleasure to God. Rest in peace sir.
Fun fact! The octave drop in Eruption was created with an Echoplex delay, and rather than turning a knob, he actually had to hold his hand against the running tape to physically slow it down. And that Echoplex was mounted in an old bomb shell, too! Super jealous about getting to play an actual Eddie guitar, you TOTALLY did it justice!
That's odd cuz legend has it Eruption was Ed warming up in the studio, and Ed never intended it to be put on the album
@@bobjones2041 Apparently Ted Templeton heard it and was like, "Were recording that thing, that's amazing." And Ed was like, "you mean my warmup exercise?"
@@obsessedwithguitars3157 do, but, Ed slowed down tapes and stuff during his warmup?
@@bobjones2041 Fromt what I understand he worked on and refined it into an actual piece constantly saying, "what would be cool to do?" There's an old interview with John Sykes where he talks about the Echoplex trick, saying, "Eddie wasn't the first to do it, but by the time he did it, people forgot about it and he made it fresh and cool again."
@@obsessedwithguitars3157 I find Eruption and his live solos to be Ed's least interesting work
Nice video and congratulations on your channel...
I can't forget the comments on the Clapton's about how nice and unique whas the noise it makes with the statics and pots scraps...... you play really good by the way
It is awesome to see this on trending, rock is truly coming back, R.I.P. EVH 🥺🤘
It is just amazing to see the love that you have for these idols and the whole genre , good job Tyler , You’ve earned it
That had to be an incredible experience. I watched your Clapton video as well and wondered if you would ever top that. Well, you did..... And that's coming from a Bass player who loved Eddie and all he did. Keep up the good work and we'll live vicariously through you. 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
You should be proud of the work you have done creating this channel and your learning system. There are a lot of very good players some that have more subs than you yet they wanted you to play these guitars. You should be proud of the job you are doing and keeping the guitar alive.
Right out of Insta Live... YEET
Hell yea
Same
I swear Atomic Punk is such a slept on song
I got literal goosebumps from watching this.
Man you are an extraordinary guitarist ! Cheers from Florida.
I have only been playing for about 16 months. I don’t even play electric I just enjoy the way you do things. And I found much joy in watching you be able to play this iconic piece of American rock history. I actually watched a video of him on some talk show going in depth the history of this guitar. I found the story to be very cool and inspiring. I find it so inspiring to see the torch still burn so to speak.
Thanks for sharing this with us!
I can make this evh guitar sound like a squire
All of this is killer, but the little alien harmonic dive you threw in at 11:24 is next level.
YOU ARE A GREAT TEACHER! So good for you to explain all of the tricks. :)
Man, I'm not jealous, I'm not envious, I'm just happy to see one of his stage used guitars displayed one more time by capable hands. I'm also happy it got to be you. Great video and keep it up.
What a lucky bastard i had chills for him when he opened that case 😎
Literally fought back tears when you opened that case.
That's awesome man!!.. congrats...
