  • hey craigman did you major in music at conn?

  • @BullgoesforGold355 Can't read music

  • Perrty good stuff man I love EVH hes the last person to really reinvent the sound of the guitar and I really dont think anyone has ever done anything really new since.

    I do know however at 0:43 its picked then the rest is hammered and slid. None the less awsome D00D

  • The MP-1 nails a good EVH tone... I wouldn't trade my 3TM for anything... I got rid of my other MP-1 mods but the 3TM is a keeper! You have a great tone dude!!

  • more pickups ,kinda tinny

  • Damn good job bro!!

  • Hey awsome cover, I have wanting to ask many youtubers especially you, how do you listen to the music through your earphones and also let us here it. It would be great if someone can help me thanx!

  • y didnt u just get a delay pedal?

  • awesome dude!

    Help me get that Brown sound!!!

  • awesome dude!

  • what setup are using?

  • @Cgolfsoccerguy ADA mp1 preamp

  • craig "Van Halen" man65 dude u nailed this. right on man!! love it dude. great job!

  • Justing Bieber disliked this video with one of his acounts

  • great job man. i love VH and people are always sooo critical on youtube vidz, but what they don't realize is VH produced some intricate, difficult music thats hard to emulate b/c he is a virtuoso. kudos.

  • Your tone is sick man! Love it! Absolutely fantastic job.

  • @262rdj nailed the "brown sound" ??? WTF

  • @vanhlnfan4life

    The "Brown Sound" is the overall guitar sound/feel that Eddie shoots for. Name coined by him. Just Google "brown sound"

  • Either your delay is out or you're missing notes but once EVH starts the tapping the harmonics flow without a break.

  • @nemesisrogue I didn't use a delay

  • dude instead of pointing mistakes. just enjoy the vid. theres only like 3 full covers of this song on youtube.

  • Fuck Ya!!!

  • this is actually the vid that got me into you. and it brings back memories comin back to this vid. this song is my 2nd favorite song all time. the chorus and pre chorus are just magical

  • @frankenstrat25 Thanks frankie

  • Awesome....just awesome...that is all.......

  • Great job!! A hard song to play.

  • cool

  • Dude you NAILED the Brown Sound. Really, really, well done.

  • @262rdj thanks man

  • This is really, really good. 

  • i use delay and chorus

  • great cover! great guiar sounds! wat kind of pickup is in that guitar? wat kind of amp and pedals are u using for the distorted sound?

  • Wow that was great.

  • would delay and phaser work with the tapping intro?

  • @codyjt5150 sure, might sound killer

  • Oh dear! :-(

  • What phaser are you using?

  • @zbaby82 that was a block logo MXR. I just bought the script reissue. Way better

  • your playing is awsome

  • @budduncan1 thanks man

  • is that just a normal new phase 90 or like a script one or something? whatever it is it sounds good!

  • Superb Job

  • Great Job

    How long have you been playing guitar ?

  • That is cool Craig. I always wanted to know that "intro"... never knew it was so ez

  • excellent job!

  • Killer job, 5 stars.

  • never heard this before, but now i want to!

  • just fuckin' awesome

  • really great ! and yout kramer is awesome !

  • Great job man!

  • Craigman, you are amazing. Let me know when you are coming to Massachusetts, I will buy a ticket to see you ;-)

  • best out of the 4 full covers on youtube i think the overdub tapping intro is just melodic and the rest idk how to explain it except the tone works better than EVHs tone

  • That was SWEET!!!

  • Well done....I mean that!!!

  • AWESOME JOB ON WOMAEN IN LOVE!!

  • great song love this song by van halen i can play it to

  • I can't believe that I'm a grown man but this song literally has me sitting here at my desk, tears uncontrollably streaming down my face, as I listen to this!

    It is one of VH's greatest creations!

    Why do I cry?

    We haven't had good song writing like this for over 20 years!! Sadly, we may never have new music this good ever again.

    That saddens my heart.

    Oh, nice job bud...

    K-I-L-L-E-R Tone!!!

    Bang on!!

    How'd you get it?

  • the bad part this trully awesome song was not one of VHs hits from VH2 that always stumps me how it wasnt one of their hits including somebody get me a doctor and botttoms up and D.O.A

  • now i get it !---it wasnt the chicks, it was the music!--i should have been more in love with my guitar...

  • nice work there! do you got the tabs for the intro? please respond.

  • One of my favorite VH songs of all times.Craigman does it again!!!

  • how bout' some girl gone bad?

  • you make it look so easy. lol.

  • sounds fantastic!!!

  • After the intro when the song kicks in... That tone is dead on. GREATJOB

  • Comment removed

  • EXCELLENT job!...

  • can u make a vid on how to play the intro? it reminds me of my childhood and i'd rly love to elarn how to play it :)

  • this was one of my favorite guitar riffs. that and beautiful girls, van halen II was so solid

  • spongebob is enjoying the show!!! no but seriously tho...very very good .. i really thought you did a great job ... sounds great!!

  • Great cover !

  • Good stuff man!

  • ive always had problems doing tap harmonics how do u get them to ring out so good? do u turn the volume on the guitar down on hit the fret a certain way? thanks! nice playing

  • You got it man, turn down a little and hit dead on the fret...

  • Outstanding work!

  • That was Eddy, right? It was?

  • sounds good....great work.....

  • wow. the best version of the intro i've heard so far. ed has sick timing skills, throws me off everytime.

  • thanks ratfarmer

  • That's why I have a problem with Hot For Teacher, the timing changes like every 10 seconds! Not to mention the solo is impossible... Except for people like Craigman...

  • dude im sorry to both you but i really need the help.

    i look up the tabs for this song and all i can find are tabs for the into (which helped a lot) but i can't find the tabs tot he rest of the song

    can you please tell me where i could find them or where you found out how to do it

  • i accidently posted my comment on the wrong username! i aciidently used psycoworm, my friends account

    can you please reply to this one, thanks :p

  • not bad

  • good job dude !. fun song to play aint it ?

  • are u gonna do another version of this with ur new guitar

  • I guess I should do something from VH2....

  • xtra seryer!!!!:):)

  • I love your tone. It's that "fat treble" sound. You found it and nailed it. You're a special player. Are you in a VH cover band? Either way, I complimented you on Hear About It Later and I'm doing it here again. Well done.

  • No I'm not in a band, and thanks again Chavez

  • cool you rock

  • Thanks S...

  • I think you melted Patrick's face...

  • LOLOL HAHA

  • I saw your "Day of the eagle" cover. Sounds exactly like Robin Trowers studio recording. Your "Women in love" cover also sounds exactly like the Van Halen studio recording. You have the best cover tunes on Youtube. I'm often disappointed when I cant find studio recordings of my favorite songs on Youtube. I dont care for concert recordings. They usually sound awful.I really enjoy the stuff you post. Pleasde keep it up.

  • Really glad you liked

  • WOW, nice!

  • hey thanks

  • how do u get that tone. also say hi to patrick for me. XD

  • ada mp1

  • omg...look at the patrick doll below his left leg xD

  • You are a really good guitar player. Perhaps even better at guitar than I am at drums LOL all kudos go to you, my friend!

  • is this in standard e or is it dropped d 4 the tuning

  • Standard Eb

  • Awesum job dude!!!! Do you have this tabbed out?

  • Thanks, sorry no tabs

  • Awesome!

    Would you mind listing the gear (amp, pedals if any, crazy settings, etc.?)

    Thanks

  • ada mp1 , mxr phase 90

  • Great job man!

  • That tone is very close to what Eddie had, very impressive!

  • those kramer stagemasters were awesome guitars!! nice job

  • Nice work... seriously.

  • Great job!! good hands!

    One of my favorite VH songs, so reminiscent of the Beatles "I Feel Fine."

  • I wonder if Eddie was hearing that song when he wrote it, hmm......

  • comparing beatles to VH? blasphemy

  • ",,,reminiscent of" not comparing. Though one can hear the Beatles influence in the VH sound.

  • well i will take your word for it because im not a big beatles fan lol more of a floydian XD, but admit that VH is a total insane god when it comes to the guitar :D

  • Superb!!! I enjoyed your playing

  • Nice Stagemaster. :)

  • very nice!!! *****, count 'em - 5 stars!

  • I feel guilty that I didn't pay addmission to see you play that. Great....simply great!

  • very tight licks u got going on here. I'm gonna have to rise up and get this one down myself. gr8 template you're giving me here!

  • Looking forward to see your post. Not enough of this one on youtube.

  • Dude! You OWN this song. U rock!!!

  • ha, I'm still trying to learn this. Your video is awesome. 5 stars! Excellent playing!

  • Well done!

  • i like the intro

  • you rock dude!

  • I watched the whole video. This is a song by Van Halen I haven't tried to play... However love the amazing chord and note ideas... very cool idea Eddie did there... very original sounding. I didn't know he was hitting that high E harmonic on every chord like that... but seeing you do it brought that to my attention. Cool song.

  • Great Job Dude! This song really showed a different and unique side of early VH.

  • Wow!Iove the intro!That was awesome.

  • i love the little patrick in the corner

  • Awesome job, thanks for posting!

  • i love this song and you did a really cover

  • I like the tone a lot...AND THE GUITAR..beautiful axe bro

  • this seems to be tuned down 1/2 step to eb..

  • great job ude! i think that the chorus level is a bit to fast tho. took me a while to dial in the right tone for this song as well

  • that waqs really good finger tapping:]

  • Nicely done!

  • Very nice, Great.

  • LOVE THIS SONG! AWESOME!

  • awesome man !!! what do u set ur delay pedal at ? if u use 1 ..

  • I overdubbed the tapping to give it an echo effect, thanks for the comment

  • Ay man, That was Smokin!!!
