Are you using the flanger or the phase 90 here pal - there are conflicting opinions on what Eddy was using on this track. - Sounds very close to the original tone which is great cos you have obviously been on a mission - congrats again.
Are these MCP pu's really worth $150 each? what exactly makes them better than say the $140 duncan Cusom Shop models where you can have your own personal spec wound and made?
@charvelstrat81 Better materials standard, and most of these guys will custom wind for you, even Jason Lollar and Fralin - I would advise you to just lay out what guitar you're putting the pup(s) into, any "tone is here with current setup, but I want more of this" and style(s) you're trying to cover and let them suggest what'd work. With the small guys you are getting a personal interaction with the expert winding your actual pups, which is worth way more than $10.
keep in mind- HIS ENTIRE SET UP. this is not just a guitar and its pickup that is giving off that sound. a nice sound it is by the way- but most folk aint gonna achieve this sound unless they have a little more fundage. great sound though*
Sounds exactly like your EVH Franky pickup demo? Your amps are so good I have to wonder if a tonerider, a golden age, or even just a GFS VEH wouldn't sound just the same? Have you tried any of those??
By the sound of it, Eddie used a flanger in the intro and a phaser in the solo, as he said he used a Phase 90 on almost every solo on the record.

Oh my god ! Very EVH tone dude, when you started playing i thought it was fake.Congratz !, ah hey, one question:How much is a Plexi 50w ?
metazoanex 1 year ago
First i thought this sounds bad,
then i surfed into that link to listen to it in high-fi... and i thought to my self, holy shit! it doesn't get any closer than that!!!
How much of a difference does the loadbox after the amphead do? is this on full volume without an attenuation?
