The guitar he is playing is called the Frankenstrat. He built it from the ground up from the main body of a Stratocaster and bits and pieces of other guitars who's parts he liked. In answer to your question.....it takes literally DECADES of practice to get that good. I myself have been learning to play guitar for the last 6 months and I can barely string 4 chords together. R.I.P Eddie , we miss you.
I’ve been playing since I was 16 (18 years almost) and I couldn’t hold a candle to him lmao. Eddie was definitely gifted.
The body and neck were castoffs from aftermarket builder Boogie Bodies. . . .
Thats not the frankenstrat. Thats a Kramer. Learn your history before you start trying to tell it.
In my opinion he is/was the greatest guitarist of all time. RIP Eddie. He was unique and brilliant
Definitely the most INFLUENTIAL of the past 50 years (I'd say 75 but that would discount Les Paul, which I can't do). "Greatest" is subjective.
He was the greatest guitarist ever. The Mozart of guitar. Never be better. I am so happy that Wolfgang is carrying on the Van Halen legacy 😂🎉
Emotionally I think David Gilmour connects the most but technically EVH pissed on every other guitar players threat boards. 😂
@@adamknight7904 You hit it on the head..it's all about how a musician connects with you emotionally. With you, it's Gilmour. With a lot of other people it's Eddie. It could also be Beck, Page, Howe..with me it's Luke and Morse. It's entirely subjective.
@@toddfrank3344
EVH certainly wasn't just your average speed shredder he did at least reinvent the rule book and created some amazing tones with classical influences, he loved his pentatonics in the same way John Entwistle did with the Bass guitar. Just imagine if those 2 had jammed together! 🤯🤯🤯
Best Guitar Solo of all time.
missing Eddie so much.. and that grin...
There are a lot of great guitar players who can do that now. Joe Satriani, Nuno Bettencourt, Steve Vai to name a few, But when Eddie Van Halen came out he completely changed the way the guitar would be played for generations.
Not one of them guys can do it like he did it though. He’s got Feel in there.
@drcuda71 not to diminish Eddie's considerable talent, but David Gilmour had better "feel." Eddie reinvented how guitar could be played. His contributions can never be ignored.
bettencourt is a baaaaaaad man.
Exactly no one did this when he came on the scene , shaped a whole generation of guitarists.
@@neillenet291 Im not here to diminish david gilmors skills…or am I. but we are talking about how eddie moved the goal posts when he came out and throughout his career. Tho david had feel in his playing he wasn’t inventing or changing anything, like tapping arpeggios out, clock chime tapping, dive bar tricks, volume swell compositions, full hand slapping, three note per string shredding and much more all with “FEEL” but I think it’s adorable how you can try putting David Gilmour‘s name in the same sentence as Eddie Van Halen’s. No chance. one was black-and-white and one was high def color. And Edward did it all with a smile and made it look simple.
LOL! Maybe he IS the best and no doubt his place in rock guitar history is singular. Techniques and effects invented for the guitar to make new and different sounds is a big legacy of Eddie's. The thing that really makes him special, I believe, is that he is while he is capable of creating all these new and different sounds and tones, he also has a built in musical flow that makes it all come out cool, pretty, emotional, MUSICAL!
Agree completely, just wanted to add that his tone was always what put him head and shoulders above the rest. Everything you said… Plus the greatest Rock tone ever.
Absolutely agree. Eddie was on electric what Tommy Emanuel is on an acoustic...
The Greatest Rock N Roll guitarist of all time.
And He made that guitar by the way
Eddie definitely changed Rock N Roll and I'd strongly say...probably the most influential player of all time.
he did not made that guitar , thats a Kramer guitar not the Frankenstrat .
This is probably the best all around guitarist you'll ever see from the Rock world. He built that guitar you see from other guitar parts. He boils his own pick-ups, customized his own speakers and amps. Then, he plays the way he does. Glad you enjoyed it.
Thats not the frankenstrat. Thats a Kramer. Learn your history before you start trying to tell it.
they never said it was a frankenstrat...
These reactions never get old.
This is why he's one of my 16 favorite guitar Gods. Rest in peace Eddie 🙏🏾
Eddie was the hands down Greatest of all time.
By the way Quincy Jones called Eddie up and asked him to play on Michael Jackson’s Beat It. Eddie did it in 20 minutes for no money, and changed up the riff. He told Michael what he did and when Michael listened to it he was blown away.
Eddie has been voted #1 on many serious music and best guitarist lists. Even if his style isn't your thing, he will still end up in the top 3. He's a guitar god. He did the solo on Michael Jackson's Beat It. The person talking at the beginning was the second vocalist for Van Halen, Sammy Hagar. The entire band are a powerhouse. I think you would enjoy a deep dive of these guys, starting with material from their original line up with David Lee Roth on vocals. For videos, Jump may sound familiar to you and Panama and Hot For Teacher are quintessential Van Halen. Definitely a must. Then you can check out some more "mature" VH with Hagar (known as the Van Hagar days) on vocals. Choose Dreams or Right Now for starters. You cannot go wrong with Van Halen.
The guitar he built from scratch and is called the Frankenstrat. He has several patents in sound and mechanics of guitar playing. Studied classical piano as well…which is why on Cathedral, blue light of eruption solo, it sounds like a cello/ violin. Masterful musician.😎🎸❤️
Thats not the frankenstrat. Thats a Kramer. Learn your history before you start trying to tell it.
SRV is a personal favorite. But, then so is EVH. Incomparable! Like Mozart vs Beethoven or Van Gogh vs Monet - You must have both! and Hendrix and Knopfler and Beck and Santana and...
Eddie Van Halen is awesome
Stevie Ray Vaughn, Texas Flood, Live at El Mocambo! AN ABSOLUTE MUST!
Definitely Penny, I watch it alot. He as well is one of the greatest..! R.I.P. Stevie!!
If someone is trying to figure out how to play guitar, this video and the Stevie Ray Vaughan Texas Flood will keep you honest
Agree. Eddie, SRV and Jimi and Jimmy Page for his compositions for the Mount Rushmore of Rock guitar.
Stevie Ray Vaughn Texas Flood live at the El Macombo
Dude this was 1986, I saw these guys in 1980 and 1984 and he's no B.S. he did this. R.I.P. to Eddie VanHalen. He is mindblowing! One of the greatest my guy. Great reaction, Awesome.
You have NEVER seen or heard anyone like Eddie Van Halen. He was truly one of a kind
Eddie effortlessly - and I mean that literally, like he didn't even think about it - blended classical, jazz, and blues into something so uniquely his.
I really enjoyed your reaction to this. I am just a few months from turning 59. Most of the technology that we have today wasn’t available when we were growing up. We didn’t have cell phones, PCs, the internet. TV only had 3 channels. We spent most of the day outside. We had to find ways to entertain ourselves. He probably practiced the guitar for hours every day. I enjoy seeing younger people react to the music of our generation. Van Halen was one of many great groups from our time. Thank you for your reaction to this song.
I saw that beautiful human live, when he did his solo at the show I attended, He practically did the whole solo...laying down on stage. He was mesmerizing, inactivating, you can't take your eyes off of him. I cried for two weeks when he passed. RIP. Eddie. Still love him.
Great reaction! There were others, Jimmy was great but sadly gone too soon and Stevie is probably the best blue's guitarist ever but Eddie is the greatest Rock and Roll guitar player that's ever lived! Hands down. RIP Eddie ❤
Eddie Van Halen is literally the Odin
all father and the Zeus of guitar God
Eddie Van Halen played the guitar with all the joy of a golden retriever chasing a frisbee, Thank you tor the reaction :)
After all these years it still gives me chills followed by tears.
Eddie is by far the best
Great reaction bro. Eddie Van Halen was and is the best guitar player ever. I was lucky enough to see this specific tour two times and both times. He absolutely killed the solo. Definitely check out some of Van Halen songs.
None of us will get to Ed's level...but it's fun to get to your own. It does feel good to get around on an instrument. Loved the reaction!
I don't think that fast...he's a legend.
Exactly! And if I did think that fast I don’t think my fingers are capable of it!
I don't care what anyone says, my generation had the best music of all time.
Possibly you should hear some of Van Halen songs. also his only child (Wolfgang Van Halen) following his dad's footsteps playing guitar. Also Eddie's brother Alex drummer in the band . a whole family of talent
There are times when you see a live show are are simply awe struck. I can say that sitting 20 feet away from EVH wile he played this extended intro to the song Eruption was one of those times. I have never seen anything before or since to compare. RIP EVH!
Pretty damn sweet!!💥✌🏼🔥
Music flowed through this man and his brother behind him. on the drums in the beginning. so glad that we all get to see his greatness. grew up with the band, (1967) , wait till you hear their early stuff.
Now that you’ve seen that design on his guitar, you’re going to start seeing it everywhere!
This is Eddie Van Halen….one of the greatest guitar players of all time, and the most innovative since Hendrix…..he changed the way people played and looked at the guitar!
I never get tired of seeing new people watch this!
I do t care what anyone says, Eddie was and will always be the best. However his son Wolfgang id amazingly talented too
Edddddie! Edddddie!!! Edddddie!!!! Rest well, EVH. Your guitar virtuosity will not be forgotten soon.
Idk how true but i have read he was super drunk during this show. His bandmates didnt even think he would be able to play. When interview and asked about this he didnt even remember playing! If thats true that in itself makes him legendary! Playing like this while drunk is God tier status ❤❤❤❤❤❤
One of a kind back in the '70's and '80's, when I was comin' up!!! Still one of a kind today!!! ENJOY IT MY FRIEND!!!
He didn't play his guitar he made love to it 😂
HE DID THE SOLO IN BEAT IT
I searched all your vids to make sure you'd done this song...and I must say you have made some excellent review choices!
The guy introducing Eddie was singer Sammy Hagar (The Red Rocker). He was their second singer after David Lee Roth. By this time Eddie was well renowned for his epic guitar skills. The drummer was Eddie's brother Alex Van Halen and they formed the band Van Halen. Way to many great songs to list them all.
Love the reaction!
Damn speechless! Never gets old with Eddie. His brother is the drummer. Sammy Hagar is the singer. Lifted Eddie to the stage. David Lee Roth was the original. Drama I guess was a sorrowful ending but they were just as Great.
RIP Eddie! Saw you in 82 and was just Jamm😮😊
"Who's that guy?"
The guy at the start was the group's lead vocals at the time, Sammy Hagar.
BTW, the guy on the drums is Eddie's brother, Alex Van Halen...They grew up with music as an integral part of the family, their father being a professional in big band symphony.
You're reaction seemed pretty standard for a first time listener. Your *exact* expressions are individual, for sure, but follow a similar pattern, based on two questions...First it's like "What the hell am I hearing?" & then progresses into "How the hell does he do that?"
😁
To be fair, Eruption began as Eddie's "finger warmup exercises" that he would play back stage *before* the show (it's originally less than 2 minutes) but they decided to include it on their first full album (simply named "Van Halen"). When he plays it onstage, he mixes in some riffs & sections from other songs the band plays & throws in some improvisation here & there...Every time they do a new show somewhere, his Eruption Solo may not sound exactly like it did in previous shows.
Some have said that the only way Eddie could possible play so fast & keep up that tempo is be making his fingers move faster than the sound barrier. This is because he'd mastered the technique of "finger tapping" in which he plays notes with both hands, with or without using a pick as it suits him.
Others have wondered how he could play for even a few minutes without his fingers turning into bloody stumps. The obvious answer is that he plays & practices so much over years that his calluses have calluses on top of his calluses...Even though I used to play guitar (nowhere near like him), I think my own fingers bleed in sympathy for his so that he doesn't have to.
The only famous person that I actually cried when he died.
Great reaction! Thanks for keeping it classy!
Eddie is amazing! You should react to the full Led Zeppelin II album next. My favorite LZ album.
Eddie Van Halen the Best . The # 1 . I love him .
A parte de todo su carisma y esa sonrisa que lo caracterizaba ❤
Stevie Ray Vaughan is the Greatest Guitar on the Fave of the Planet. ❤❤ Stevie can play from 12:00 pm till 8: 00 am. He did that so many times. ❤❤
The GOAT!!
So glad to see you enjoying this! EVH!!! the legend!!!
We called him "King Edward" for a very good reason.
That's tone ! Sure the best complete Eddie's solo of all time.
You can see how much he was happy with the new singer finally without Dave's fights. In 1984 he wasnt so fine ..
The king❤🎸......RIP mighty Edward 💣
Sammy Hagar was the man and lead singer of Van Halen at the time. Eddie's brother Alex on drums. If you watch the next song, I Can't Drive 55, he has to change guitars because the strings start breaking. Great reaction
🌸 now you need to go listen to some Van Halen songs and watch him in action with the rest of the band!
I would recommend for the first two that you do, Jump and Panama
Eddie is the goat!!!
I am subscribing because of that reaction.
Eddie was a/is and will always be the GOAT!!!!
There's eddie, then there's everyone else.
His brother Alex is the drummer. Who use to play guitar while Eddie played the drums. Then they changed. Most of Eddies RIP was written on piano. Because his hands moved so fast he could not teach his son to play the guitar
The guitar God Eddy, Paolo from italy ,,
Right dude and thanks y❤es he's the greatest
You might have heard Eddie Van Halen before and you may not be aware of it. He played the guitar solo on Michael Jackson's "Beat It".
There are levels to musicianship, skill and talent, Eddie Van Halen, Alex Lifeson (and very few others) are at the highest point.
RIP EDDIE VAN HALEN..THE DRUMMER IS HIS BROTHER. THEY CAME UP WITH THE BAND. BEST SOLO IN THE WORLD!
SRV would be a contender for GOAT...so much depends on style, method, instrument and basically everything under the sun possibly by popularity.
Anyways, great stuff...all of those folks are top notch.
All the best.
Cheers.
Simply the best
Eddie was, is and always will be on my personal list of one of the greatest guitarists ever. I have seen Van Halen play live a few times dating back to 1984 for my first experience. He shares a list of my personal favorites like Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughn and of course Angus Young, whom I can personally thank for the ringing I still have in my ears 30 some odd years later. Note to self: Don't stand too close to the cannons for "For Those About to Rock" at an ACDC concert... just saying.
And to think he still had about an another hour to go in the concert after this. 😂
You should check out the Van Halen 1 in its entirety. Not a bad song on it. Eddie’s playing is on that record is wild.
He was amazing I got to see them live twice. Once front row! If you do Stevie Ray Vaughn make sure it's live Texas Flood.
Sadly, we lost arguably THEEEEE GREATEST ROCK GUITARIST THAT EVER LIVED in October (my now sad birth month) of 2022 to fkn cancer... He was surrounded by his family, his brother Alex, his only child and son, Wolfgang, his current wife, Janine (I believe her name is), AND HIS EX-WIFE, Valerie Bertinelli... He was....... Eddie frkn Van Halen... Never took a guitar lesson in his Life, actually started playing drums before he switched instruments with his brother, Alex, as young kids, and the rest is music history... Excuse me... Music LEGEND!!!
KEEP IN MIND, THIS IS THE GUY WHO TOTALLY REARRANGED MICHAEL JACKSON'S "BEAT IT," at the request of Quincy Jones, to the ICON of a song it became, and still is, today... And, he asked FOR NO MONEY for doing it... Despite the song becoming as universally successful as it became... A genuine artist, who revolutionized modern guitar playing... EVERY GUITARIST AFTER EDDIE was touched by his influence... My "guitar god" MADE ME the guitarist I am today... And, I THANK HIM, and may God rest his soul... RIP EDDIE VAN HALEN (THANK YOU for the timeless hits, bro...) 😪🙏🏾
That guitar sold foot $3.92 million dollars at auction!! His "Hot for Teacher" guitar sold for about the same.
.... and I was fortunate to meet him in 1978. With Stevie Ray Vaughn, from his 1989 live performance on Austin City Limits you should check out "Tightrope", " Voodoo Child", and "Riviera Paradise". And from Live at El Mocambo you should check out "Texas Flood"!!!
KING EDWARD 👑
The lead singer there is Sammy Hagar, who replaced David Lee Roth as lead singer for Van Halen. Eddie Van Halen was & is one of the greatest guitarist ever
And tore up, floor up,doing it,too.
Jimi Hendrix and Eddie Van Halen are neck and neck as best guitarist's.
Neil Peart, Stevie Ray Vaughn and Victor Wooten!!!! ???? Dream band...... Love you!!! ....... Love You! Jesus
So cute, back then after my brother heard this, he bought similar pants and an electric guitar. Memories ☮️💜🔥🎸🤘
SRV live at El Macambo. Totally different style but every bit as amazing!
Probably the most famous guitar ever dude.
Stevie Day Vaughan. IS THE GREATEST GUITARIST OF ALL TIME. ❤❤❤❤ STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN IS A MIND BLOWER. ❤❤
Wrong channel bro!😅
He was doing Volume swells. That’s why he was just twisting volume Nob. Finger tapping was around back then. But Eddie was thee GUITAR GOD/ will remain GUITAR GOD!! He was light years ahead of anyone at that time and this time. Dove down that rabbit hole deep k!!
❤😂🎉 Van Halen not a bad band to listen to. World renowned.🎉😂❤
🎇🌎🎆🌏🎊🌍🎈🎉👏
And that concert for this video is from 1986, let that sink in also.
Notice, no back round music to help him out ... showing guitarists , for guitarists ,,, Rip Legend EVH !
*lights bic lighter* lol Well done, young man!
Go on a rabbit trail....Start with Van Halen 1 (self-titled), it went Diamond...then go on from there. We Van Haleniacs are rabid fans!
If you like Eddie you should hear Wolfie play
The GOAT
GOAT.
Who’s the best in contemporary music , that’s the question. There’s a small handful of legendary guitarists who have made a major impact on music because of incredible skill
Eddie Van Halen is one of them
So was Jimmy Hendrix, Jeff Beck , Eric Clapton, Stevie Ray Vaughan , Joe Satriani, Steve Vai ect ect
That doesn’t include jazz guitarist like
Alan Holdsworth
Wes Montgomery
John McLaughlin
Pat Metheny
But in contemporary rock he was certainly one of my favorites
To think, this is the guy that played the guitar solo on Michael Jackson's "Beat It"!!!!!
Not long to learn to play like that…. Just a lifetime!
Eddie built his own guitars
If you haven’t already, please do Stevie Ray Vaughan playing Texas Flood live at the El Mocambo. You won’t be disappointed!!! 🇨🇦🖖🏻
"Voodoo Chile," from "Austin City Limits."😁😁
@@Northstadiumhusker another great choice!!🖖🏻🇨🇦
