  • John Denner , Eddie Van Halen - Eruption Guitar Solo

  • He's like guys from THE NEWS :P

  • It's easy. If you're in standard tuning, hold down the 4th fret on the low(thick) E-string and tune your A-string down a little so it sounds similar to the 4th on E. Then do the same with the A and D-string, but this time hold on the 5th fret on the A-string, because A is already G#. Then do the same with the other strings. In the guitar lingo, a step is two frets, meaning half step will be one fret. Imagine you get a another fret by tuning down a half step, so u can play darker notes

  • Guitar Instructor is the hottest online destination for officially licensed guitar tabs, video lessons, song lessons, jam tracks, and more!

  • Greg Koch sounds more like the real thing to me

    

  • Marcus Henderson is impressive , but take a look @ Redd Volkaert , or Jimmy Reed ..

    Also Greg Koch does a fantastic version of Eddie Van Halen @ guitarinstructor

    Happy New Year !

  • Let's see Marcus Henderson do some John Denver !

  • I actually think Greg Koch does a more convincing video lesson in this style than Marcus Henderson ...

    Sound more like something Tom Kolb would do ..

    Still love all the new guitar lesson's @ GuitarInstructor

  • I wonder why he not using the Epiphone Marcus Henderson Apparition for these eddie van halen guitar solo lessons ?

  • @videomoviedvd maybe this was recorded befor e he got one of his own signter models?

  • Funny thing is John Denner does a better eruption guitar solo than Marcus Henderson , and he only has one hand !!

  • 5678

  • Eddie Basics 1 O 1...his tapping style may have made him famous but it's his sound, off the wall odd ball picking style that is harder to master. He noodled to death on tape and had to learn his own shit that he liked after listening to it over and over and over again not like the pussy digital extensive learning at your finger tips reliant on technology faggots of today that all sound the same.

  • 1 2 3 4!

  • Man they should have had Marcus Henderson do the Two-Handed Tapping Lesson rather than Dave Celentano

    Dave just doesn't have that sound Marcus Henderson does .

    It would be like giving Dave an Albert Lee style leson over Greg Koch , you know ?

  • One of the best !

  • MArcus Henderson is the man !

  • What is Guitar Instructor?

    GuitarInstructor com is the ultimate online destination for learning to play guitar in all styles, beginner to pro. The website was launched in December 2007. New content is added daily.

    How much does this service cost?

    GuitarInstructor com is not a subscription service. You purchase what you want, when you want, on an à la carte basis. Song Transcriptions and Audio Tracks are only 99¢ each. Video Lessons and Video Songs are only $1.99 each

  • What is the difference between Video Lessons & Video Songs?

    Video Lessons are guitar lessons, each approximately eight minutes in length, taught by various instructors. The content covered will be equivalent to that of a half-hour private lesson. "Core" Video Lessons cover fundamental concepts and techniques; "Master Class" Video Lessons cover specialized subjects.

  • Each song starts with a lesson from a professional guitar teacher. Then, the teacher performs the complete song along with professionally recorded backing tracks. On-screen tab is also included.

    What are Audio Tracks?

    Audio tracks are professionally produced sound-alike recordings available with either the lead instrument removed or with the full band performing. Audio tracks can be purchased in conjunction with most Hal Leonard Guitar Play Along sheets.

  • gud stuff marcus 1 question i must ask are u tha 1 who also did eruption on gh van halen i've got tha demo been playin that song on there????

  • As always Marcus Henderson does a great job on the Eddie Van Halen video !

  • He sounds like Flea from the Red Hot Chil Peppers.

  • For complete VH song and solo dissections, go to my page. Extremely accurate, or your balls back.

  • ha harmonic tap fest

  • Guitar Hero & legend Randy Rhoads

    . Any time I think of Randy, especially these days, it really helps me remember never to give up on doing exactly what you want to be doing in life, to remain in control of your future and destiny and not let it be in control of you. Randy lived exactly how he wanted to and was unapologetic about following his dream. Any time I hear the fade out solo to "tonight"

    Along with Eddie Van Halen Eruption !

  • Would really love to see more in the way of Randy Rhoads on Guitar Instructor !

    dont get me wrong i love eddie van halen , he's the man !

  • Eddie Van Halen ROCKS

  • Congratulations. You figured out how to copy and paste.

  • Randy Rhoads and Eddie Van Halen that's what it's all about !

  • EDDIE VAN HALEN IS THE MAN!!!

  • n this lesson excerpted from one of Marcus Henderson's master classes on GuitarInstructor com, the Guitar Hero guru demonstrates the basic technique for pulling off an EVH-styled tapping solo

  • does anyone have any tips on tapping?

  • start slow.

  • Great job Marcus !

    JB

  • Great guitar lesson in the style of EVH by Marcus Henderson

    this is truly raw and just plain awesome!! I've always loved the sound of a single guitarist when Eddie solos. I mean it sounds so much better just hearing Michael in the back ground holding it together. Who needs a rythm guitarist? ..well I guess Angus Young . Long live Eddie Van Halen A true innovative guitar and music legend!!

    Thank you again for the awesome website!

    GuitarInstructor com

  • Haha! That's a Bad Brains shirt I think...

  • in 1996 they started selling shirts with sleeves again.

    look into it.

  • what??

  • @dickravis I guess they havent started selling troll repellers yet..........

  • Ow yeah,

    Nuno Bettencourt is the new and improved Eddie, by the way.

    Start listening to him and a world will open up for you, musically speaking.

  • Put up a video that eclipses Henderson on "Play With Me" from GH 80's or zip-it about your so called skills. Another youtube armchair champion! Oh, Oh yeah-Nuno is 4 feet of has-been. Shawn Lane owned everyone.

  • shawn lane was the KING

  • You know, i understand completely why there are so few good players these days.

    It's because of the quality of these "instructors".

    Man, i still consider myself a beginner after 10 years but i can play circles around all these "me playing Van Halen" posers on Youtube.

    You guys have absolutely no idea where to get your own skill and sound.

  • Remember what Eddie always said: Don't copy but create. Don't imitate but innovate.

    But i always hated those gear-freaks. I met a ton of those people. Why are they fact-fucking so much with equipment? To cover up a lack of talent? Funny, because Ed (and many others) started out with crap-guitars.

    It's all in the fingers.

  • Poploser555,

    I think that Dimebag-replica is a joke, the paint-work isnt even correct. And stop talking like i dont know who Dime was. I was listening to projects in the jungle and cowboys from hell when you were eating out of your nose in grade school or lower.

    BTW, i think signature-guitars are a joke, why do you want to imitate someone? Lack of own creativity?

  • why does this knucklehead have a dime-bag-cheap-looking wannabe-guitar?

    Tapping is one of the most lame aspects of eddie playing but people still keep remembering for that particular skill.

    His riff-work, and the things he played over his own riff was outstanding. He also had a great melodic feel.

    But i never see that copied because no-one can do that. Tapping is the easy part, only Vai and players of that skill have evolved the tap-technique.

  • Eddie buried his Bumblebee guitar in Dime's arms. Eddie was Dime's favorite player. This 'knucklehead' is using a Dime model as a subtle nod to Dime. Also I think this is for beginners who are new to EVH's style... Relax guitar snob!
