    The key to playing VH is being loose while accurate. Ummm, yeah, you got it. After years of metal I had to go back to VH because my playing was too tight. You are nailing playing loose. Awesome to watch.

      Exactly, you need to swing while hitting the right notes and chords. EVH was anything but a buttoned-up, precise, locked-step guitarist. I think of Eric Johnson as a fantastic talent who is far more obsessively precise, which has its own advantages and beauty.

I have given up my idea of learning this in honour of EVH because man you make this 60yo guitarist want to quit. When I was your age I couldn''t attempt this if I tried. Self Taught, can't read music and will never have the patience or skills like you do my young dude. Well done, you nailed it and EVH would be more than happy. Oh this is from 2013? I can't imagine what you have achieved since this upload. Me I'm learning to play piano now, a lifetime ambition. Thanks for a terrific performance of a legendary guitarist RIP EVH.

    Without a locking tremelo that guitar, would be out of tune, digging in with right hand... I can here every up stoke and you are spot on. I am 53, playing for 40 years, and you are exemplary!

    I love the guitars you use in your vids.
    I find the "smug" looks entertaining.
    I wish you would play MINUS the backing tracks.
    Do some of the tracks off of balance.
    Great job.

    Damn!!! I just accidentally hit the thumbs down. No way in hell there should be any thumbs down on this guy. I've been sitting here for thirty minutes watching several of his videos with my mind blown. Amazing chops, spot on tone and great energy to boot. This guy is flat out amazing and obviously Steve Lukather and Dweezil Zappa have recognized his undeniable talent and gifting. Rock on always!!!
