[Happyface191992]

damn :( i need tapping lessons i want to learn this song....

[richcanoe]

You are incredible!!!

Any chance you could play this super super slowly so I can tab it out and start practicing it?

Again dude you are wicked - very impressed.

[zacblade]

Could you tell me how to do what you did at 1:48

[younakahara]

@zacblade Repeat pull-off 5-3-0 on the 4th string and then 5-3-0 on the 5th string. Slowly Give mute from the bridge to the neck with the edge of your palm.Good Luck

[zacblade]

@younakahara Thanks :D

[FoxyGrandson]

sounds just like it

keep rocking

[bailey32121]

What does it mean by without a net?? And are there any tutorials on the licks that are on the live shows??

[sethgheko]

Nice and smooth ... one of the few hwo concentrates on the technique rather than speed. Keep it so, and show us more !

[younakahara]

@sethgheko Hi.Thanx so much for the comment.Like you said, Eddie's playing style is not really in the speed but in the feel and in his unique habit. That's why it's hard but fun to pursue copying his music. I'll try to improve. Thanx again.

[BlackWolfgang70]

it's amazing ... really ... amazing ! 5 stars

[younakahara]

Thanx man! EVH rules!

[GibsonX21]

I know that I have just seen a really GREAT video when I notice that you play something that I DON'T KNOW HOW TO DO! First off, HELL OF A JOB on this solo man. Second...can you please describe how you do that part at 1:46-1:51??? I have been playing for 12 years and am no beginner...however I am asking you how you did this? Again...great job on this! Bout to go watch "Live Without a Net" right now! ROCK ON! -Johnny

[GibsonX21]

Hey I JUST noticed that someone asked the same question as me...no need to respond then I guess. I have to say it again, NICE JOB!

[younakahara]

Thanx anyways for your complimentary comment. How did it go? Did you get it?

[ToxicDarkVengance]

u MAY be better than the real van halen lol xD

[younakahara]

Never even close to the original EVH solo but I enjoy pursuing his playing style. Your comment was encouraging anyways. Thanx!

[KthaWalkin]

How in tha? 1:46

[younakahara]

Repeat pull-off 5-3-0 on the 4th string and then 5-3-0 on the 5th string. Slowly Give a mute from the bridge to the neck with the edge of your palm.Good Luck

[SubGunner]

Awesome man!! Sounded bad ASS!

5/5

[VanHalenWorshiper]

no prob

[VanHalenWorshiper]

the best lwan eruption solo cover, even the picking hand u got

[younakahara]

Hey VH worshiper, thanx for such a complimentary comment. It's encouraging.

[AdrianSmithFan]

yh, that is by far the best cover i have ever seen of eruption. and about your tremolo picking, did you train it up using a metronome to do it the way eddie does or did it just come natural to you? :)

[younakahara]

Hi AdrianSmithFan. The Eddie's style tremolo picking needs alot of practice. I was lucky that I didn't screw up on this video...

Your comment is very much appreciated. Thanx!

[EJG5150]

Peavey or Fender EVH?

[younakahara]

Hi EJG5150, It's a Peavy Wolfgang.

[EJG5150]

thanks man sounds good

[frankenstrat25]

haha my enitials are EJ

[EJG5150]

cool man rock on

[PhantomKode]

nice job. Nice to see someone not just playing the studio version for the 1 millionth time. And if you picked a live version to cover, it would be this one. This concert was awesome!

[younakahara]

Hi PhantomKode, thanx for the comment. Yeah, this concert video was awesome! A hardest solo to not to make any mistake...

[younakahara]

hatinana87さん

コメントありがとうございます。耳コピーです。近づけないEdd­ieの演奏をひたすら目指すのが楽しくてギターやっています。や­っぱEddieは最高です。

[hatinana87]

ビデオのやつだから当然耳コピーでしょうネ　よく再現されてますね～～　聴き入りました♪

[jetsfan819]

what amp and effects did you use in this vid?

[younakahara]

Hi jetsfan819, thanx for the comment. Please refer to the link in the description of this video.

[HOWYOUDOIN884]

man that captures the beauty of the original real nicely!

[DylanScore]

wow it's incredible!

[mikie7227]

awesome man, keep up the good work.

[younakahara]

Thanks man!

[XaviorStone]

i love how clean it is but i mostly love the brown sound PERFECT!!!! 5stars

[younakahara]

Hi XaviorStone, thanks for the comment.Nobody have ever said that I have a brown sound.That was encouraging!Thanks for the stars too!

[nitropipes]

The true secret to eddie's tone isn't as much in the amp and guitar as it is in his feel, and you definitely got it... great job

[younakahara]

Hi nitropipes, Thanks for your complimentary comment.

[laxxxATTACK17]

holy fucking shit. incredible

[younakahara]

Thanks man!

[Craigman65]

that was bitchin' man, love the fast picking

[younakahara]

Thanks!

[wezzamx1]

What is the notes for the rundown at 58 secs through 1.20? any help here would be great. cheers, awesome soloing dude:)

[frenchtoast747]

How do you do that slide up the neck effect at 1:47? Thanks. Btw, i use your video for practicing tips because it's clearer than the LWAN solo.

[younakahara]

Repeat pull-off 5-3-0 on the 4th string and then 5-3-0 on the 5th string. Slowly Give a mute from the bridge to the neck with the edge of your palm.Good Luck

[frenchtoast747]

Alright, thank you very much.

[guitarshredder0985]

what string and fret is the pinch harmonic at 1:21 at, and also what strings and frets are the harmonics at 1:54 and 1:57 at this will really help me thanks

[younakahara]

I think I used the second fret of the third string for the pinch harmonic. Try fifth and third fret of the fourth and third string for the harmonics.Good Luck!

[omar020295]

yeah man, a lesson video would be perfect. i think that it would help enough.... you rock!

[omar020295]

hey dude, you're awesome!! can u tab this?

[younakahara]

Thanx dude!Mayby a lesson video instead?

[guitarshredder0985]

hay man can you make a lesson video and do you know the song

[frenchtoast747]

すべての可能な場合は、下記]タブで、このギターソロ。本当にあ­りがとうございます

[younakahara]

Hey frenchtoast747,thanx for trying to contact me in my mother language.There's no tab but maybe I can post a lesson video soon in future.Hope that would help.

[frenchtoast747]

Very awesome, sounds very very close to the original, blindfolded i couldn't tell the difference. I also love the way you tremelo pick not many people play it like that, I've mastered that picking style as well. Would very much appreciate tabbing if you feel up to the challenge. Thanks if you do it.

[allahisklein]

Unbelievebly well done, you are very talented!

i'm curious if you have written some solo's of you own. Would like to hear it!

[Daedge15]

thats awesome dude, i can hear a bit of country tone in it, like a little chickin picken licks, or that could just be the tone lol great job.

[SlipKnoTtater]

hey dude can you tab :57-1:21 please?

[guitartate92]

hey man can you plz make a video showing how to play that!!! i have been wanting to learn that ever since i began guitar!!! plz dude if you cant at least tell me where i can find an instuctional video!!!

[robrechtmathues]

what harmonic are you doing at 01.21

[pismo10]

Fabulous and The live without a net solo is I feel the peak of the era. Ed had it all together very well for that show/time and it flowed so nicely. Earlier solos included much of this one, sometimes more, but the never arranged as well. This one is very "musical" and less pieces strung together sounding.

[rickyb2112]

Jesus Christ... absolutely amazing... the LWOAN solo is my favorite thing of his, and you do it tons of justice my friend... just incredible...

[younakahara]

Thank you for your complimentary comment.LWAN solo is may most favorite too.

[flameanator]

can you post a vid on how to do that tremelo picking thing at 1;25. i can play the notes but the way you play it with your right hand

[hlmguitarsaxman]

hey man can u send me the tab of the stuuf your doing at around 43s thnx

[Krustbox]

oh my dear god this was fantastic. Did you figure it all out by yourself? Or is there a tab? I've looked all over for a tab. This is like the best solo of all time by Eddie.

[younakahara]

Thanks for your complimentary comment.I figured it out by watching the live video.Unfortunately, there's no tab out there.I'd love to have one though.

[xxxiHateEmosxxx]

dude u could not have played that any better

its fucking perfect

[younakahara]

I can't have comments any better than yours.Thank you!

[xxxiHateEmosxxx]

haha thats ok man i definately meant it that was insane. only eddie can play it better

[babyxsunshiine]

hey dude can u tab this

[fv3video]

[62jackie]

[younakahara]

Hi 62jackie. Thanks for the complimentary comment. No, I've not played in a band for years.Actually, I'm not a fast picking player at all. I'm sure you'd be able to play much faster than me with alots of practice. Good Luck!

[clam454]

Holy crap! glad I watched this vid!  excellent playing, excellent sound, incredibly tight and melodic.

[younakahara]

[younakahara]

Hi zjowns09, thanx for the comment. Maybe I can post a lesson video someday. 'til then, try on your own by watching the Live without a Net video. It really helped me clear alot of his techniques. Good Luck!

[anthonysotomayor]

how did u learn this song, if by tab can u please tell me where u got it, because ive been trying to look for it all over the internet and i still cant find it, you are the only person that plays eruption so perfectly. (especially in the tapping parts from 0:22-1:19 its soo perfect, so can u please tell me where i can get these notes or tabs thanks)

[younakahara]

Hi anthonysotomayor. I appreciate your complimantary comment. As far as I know, there's no tab for the live version. I wish I have one too. I learned it by my ears from watching the Live without a Net video. Not easy but you should be able to by continuing try and error.

[convictTKM]

[nathanleewilson]

[younakahara]

Hi nathanleewilson,thank you for the comment.The part you mentioned is; repeat pull-off 5-3-0 on the 4th string and then 5-3-0 on the 5th string. Slowly Give a mute from the bridge to the neck with your palm.Good Luck.

[nathanleewilson]

alright, did you play this by ear or is there a tab for it, i've been wanting to learn it..i got some of it down but eddie is a god! and by the sounds of it SO ARE YOU! I know you prolly dont have a lot of time on your hands but could you try to explain to me how to do the sweet sounding part in 1:47-1:50 and get me the link to the tab please.

[jason301973]

don't forget to say 'Thank you!' at the very end like the Great One did in Fresno. What kind of delay do you have on that?

[younakahara]

Hi jason301973, thank you for the comment. All I use is BOSS ME-50. Please check the link on "About This Video" tab.

[thedemon1987]

that bit that starts at like 58:00 what is that, all the eruption lessons only have the standard album version, i need to learn that part, it sounds like classical? does it have a name or is it just a lick that eddie made up?

[younakahara]

Hi thedemon1987,thanx for the comment.The classical like lick is a copy of what he does on most of his live performances.Chceck out the live solo videos on YouTube.

[satchbooggy]
