[NickLlobet]

You are so talented...i love what you did wit the the doodee sparkles

[Nothernlight47]

Hey Dave !

Awesome demo !

Please, what's the amp used in this video ? thx

[Nothernlight47]

Really cool demo and nice playing !

What's the amp used in the video ? Thx

[gerardbiteme]

I don't know why anyone would ever both buying Eddie's pedal I mean they are great, but i think there better ones, and if you ever want to emulate eddie's tone he hardly ever used any pedals, all the tone/sound he got came from the guitar, no pedals apart from in a couple of songs obviously

[FrenzyFrets800]

is that the same guitar santana uses???

[SLASH00009]

come on do some evh stuff since its an evh product

[orrekorre]

i think the guitar sounds allitle off, like its not in tune or something.

[halieluvstroy]

mxr phase 90 reverb flanger good amp nice vid tho!!! check out our EVH frankie replica me and my wife built plz comment and rate we have 3 vids so far thx!!!!

[funincluded]

I'm not a big fan of the flanger stuff

[Teutonic1250]

THIS IS AN AMAZING PEDAL!

[tmwnat]

Does it make cookies?

[Teutonic1250]

i cant really tell the difference between a flanger and a phaser

[TheGutiargod]

ive played for 4 years and neva had a pedal

[george14141414]

My Flanger Seems To Be Draining my Tone when the amps Cranked up. and theres is a bit of a volume difference between the effect and bypass. Ideas?

[crazyguitarluver]

what kind of amp do you have

[konachai1]

I use a Boss parametric equalizer, gives my Twin a whole new life and great with other effects, might work for your situation, not sure though.

[merrilltim]

Amps ? Are you running in stereo? That can result in a drop but any non-true bypass can drop volumes and the more you use together the more loss of tone. In addition 9volt convetors can do battle with each other. If you have several pedals try a voodoo lab pedal power and expierement with the pedal order as well.

[rgjmce666]

do you have it plugged in after a distortion pedal?

[BurntMetal]

PRS? Awesome.

[StratocasterMaster3]

Dave is God!!

[janaural]

hey how bucks much is that?

[eroticblack]

looks like a tissue paper box from the back side!

[Nathan6626]

i got this for my b-day and i love it, the evh switch is amazing!! BUY IT!!!

[ArchStanton6661]

Awesome video but you should try a thicker pick.

[metallicaslayer3366]

nice this is my 2nd to next pedal i either want the EVH wah or Dimebag wah dont kno yet but after one of those i will get this

[graybeard37]

soweet! awesome flanger!!!

[dirtstyles]

The facial expression at 8:28 is quality.

[GoodPeopleRockOn]

Awesome video post

[antiforce121]

lol i have Only been playing since 08 august and i was watching this playing alon with him then he dose a great solo.. I was like yh im fucked lol,

Great job man might buy it. How Much (in £) Im getting pretty good and string bending and i can tap like eddy van halen.

[kkdav1]

about 130 RRP. i wouldnt recommend buying this if youve only been playing for under a year

[alpha1shadow]

tapping isn't the only thing that eddie does. he has good phrasing too. also. you can save yourself some money and just buy the regular mxr flanger.

[garbeaj]

You are absolutely right...he used an unmodified original for all the stuff on the classic records and live shows.Eddie set all the knobs at 12:00-this is because there were no presets in those days...he revealed this in an interview with Dweezil Zappa in the early '90s...he used the same settings on the flanger for ALL the songs using the flanger-not just "Unchained"...also "Atomic Punk",the electric piano on "And The Cradle Will Rock",and everything else...why not use what he used-the original

[KATZMANISGOD]

Dave... u cant boast the Unchained setting with out actually playing that riff

[GuitaristAidan]

(@KATZMANISGOD) I agree. Wouldn't have taken much effort, would it ¬¬

[thrasher025]

what does that page say at 3:47? i've been trying to pause at the right spot but i can't get it?

[CuteyBratty]

its give it a test a bit

[texasranga]

it says unrendered- the frame mustve gotten messed up or something and it errored

[iRawk44]

hey italiancarguy its 189 i just checked the price at guitar center.

[Wuzzles2]

I always thought it was pronounced "flaynger" like "flange" or "range"

[tomahawky1]

Which specific levels for each knob do you feel would be manually set to produce the sound closest to Eddie's EVH setting on the pedal?

[eddiefan36]

push the evh button that give u the sound

[CaptainAmerica7770]

is he playing that'll be the day by streetlight manifesto?

[zerobubbel]

I own a Boss SE-70 Pro multi effectprocessor and all the effects are fantastic. I heard that these processors are becomming collector items and i understand why. The flange and other effects are just perfect. The distortion is analog and i just very content with it...just needed to tell you this because this MXR flanger sound much like the one in the SE 70 Pro.

[italiancarguy]

How much is this?

[omegacanon]

Cowboys from hell flange!!

[element5333]

woah i didnt think hed be this good..

[andyznuff]

Yeh but........where can I get that hat?

[dirtstyles]

Good work David, when are we going to see you without a hat on?

[skippyriddle]

My, that was a lot of flange.

[Agent2306]

OMG...no one realied EVH stood for Eddie Van Halen...Nice video though. This guy always seems to make great videos.

[cheesnuggets123]

it sounded like sanitarium for a while

[dcrappah]

How the hell does he make those pinch harmonics scream like that? Mine are WEAK! (dammit!)

[MetallicBlack86]

You gotta keep practising the pinching....remember that when doing the pinch...you need to hold your Pick right....the tip of your pick has to be closer to you thumb's fleshy area...than as you initiate the pinch you have to pluck the string and touch the strings with the tip of your thumb at the same time....there is a video on youtube that shows you how to do the pinch correctly...but i can't remeber the title...try typing pinch harmonics and you might get something

[sakowihe75]

its all in the pickups.

[niahos]

what pickups and amp do u have

[feelxmyxwrath]

practice, the time of guitar, and the amp

[tyeedillon]

well with pinch harmonics, they change depending on where you pick it on the string. To get the harmonic to scream, get your thumb of your picking hand right down to the bottom of the pick. So when you pick the string, your thumb follows and nicking the string to create a clear harmonic. It takes practice on how to do it and knowing where to pick it.

[imben901]

VERY high distortion and sustain

[MountainDew231767]

distortion, practice

[jwood5150]

you got to keep practacing them and make sure theres loads of distortion

[asklcnvivdf]

i do mine the lazy way. i put my pick on the edge of the center pickup thats on my guitar. it makes a pretty good pinch harmonic.

[scoreflue]

nice pickups nice amp nice guitarist :)

[rockthe80ssammyt]

heavy distortion and the right place on the string

[atomicfile2]

he always looks at the camera weirdly when he plays check it out!

[SlaveToThePaint]

he's focused. If i taped you playing you'd probably be surprised how retarted you look.

[cfcmas]

sound like a talkbox at 6:27

[twosup]

I love analog but I got a friend who likes areally space age like digital sound and he does amazing things with it so thats not always a bad thing I love my MXR EVH flanger

[ccwieber]

When you are showing us the EVH "Unchained" effects, you should play some other stuff. You mostly played the same thing over again...but anyways this is my favorite video of yours, and it was one of the first that I watched before considering playing guitar. I GOT A FENDER! lol

[DSTaylor69]

Your Videos are really good... Wish you would show the settings as your changing them... Keep Rockin'

[mee14x]

haha look at 3:56

[Meta1Head91]

haha good spotting.

[romforlife]

lol nice XD

[VanHalenBand]

I love MXR stuff, I have the Flanger, Phaser, and MXR Distortion III. THe thing I don't like about other pedals is that the knobs are loose and can move when you don't want them too. MXR's knobs are heavy duty.

[artmania1990]

only 135 dollars actually

[OzzmanX30]

and were exactly can u get it 4 that cheap??

[redbird963]

How cheap?

[iamnbr14ever]

i heard these cost like almost 200 dollars lol

[Cathedral]

They do, better off just buying the regular one without Eddie's brand on it. If you really want the stripes just repaint it yourself. :)

[chriscoooley]

i like ur sound. even though ur using ur small spider 1, it owns the sound from my amp, i got it from a friend for $25 =(

[allencollinsexplorer]

you should do a review on a ibenez tube screamer

[freeatlast1963]

how much do these pedals cost then?

[guitarchamps1]

about 50$-75$ there sorta expencive for a effect pedal.

[UnderDeceptionMetal]

this beast cost about 200$ man this is expensive compared to 75$ but well worth every penny

[chriscoooley]

guitarchamps is wrong 50-75 would be a cheap effect. to see how much it is new, just look on musicians friend or something

[suphomeyg]

i bought hat before i saw this its awsome

[DreamedOfHugeSpiders]

I also imagine if you spill anything on it, it's just wipe right off!

[theozzman67]

awesome man, i'm thinkin about buying this flanger, so thx man

great playing!!

[slash4114]

i never use flanger lol.

[chriscoooley]

yea flangers one of those one-off effects. unless ur EVH

[johnnypayne3]

man, I gotta get myself that flanger, I have tried it out before at guitar center, but I didn't realize how cool it was until I seen this.

[DreamedOfHugeSpiders]

it's the guy playing the guitar that sounds good not the pedal. in fact he's having to work damn hard to make that shitty thing sound decent!

[BillDuff]

i bought it a few days ago and i agree on everything you said

[GangstaGangsta2four5]

I really don't know too much about guitars and I was wondering if this would sound alright using a Gibson Les Paul.

[ahvaimusicom]

ya i would say so

[Vanquard5150]

PRS and EVH that's a cool combination!

[PoisonJoviRocker]

K my amp has a 3 prong outlet, but one of the prongs is broken. can his cause amp quality loss?

[gbexplorer]

what kind of amp? a lot of amps the plug comes out and yo could replace it.

[custom24prs]

If you mean the AC plug its probably the ground, in which case you should get it fixed. If you ground yourself you can get a shock from the guitar strings (at least that happened to me a long time ago, I sat on the heater grate while damp (shower) and the strings shocked me because the amp wasn't grounded.

[Sk8gangsta1]

good demo

[ghostkilla622]

lol i find that guy looks sorta like dee snider

[cheesnuggets123]

it does kinda look like him

[contabilidad03]

O rei = el rey = the king = MR. EDWARD VAN HALEN.

[meetup5555]

did anyone else see that flash of blue screen at 3:47 right before he switched to guitar it says unren something

[PanamaSabroso]

my bad,sounds like ride the lightning

[PanamaSabroso]

sounds like master of puppets lol

[GeorgVanHalen]

Cool. Nice to keep the EVH legacy alive!

[subjulio]

I luv that PRS!!!

[bruno456987]

i like this pedal better than the MXR EVH Eddie Van Halen Phase 90.

[krusevaccblack]

nice color of guitar!

[rmkiller94]

what is the metallica sound? I THINK IT'S METAL BUT IM NOT SURE PLEASE RESPOND...

[6693]

EVH Rocks

[leehr777]

He looks like the singer from puddle of mud.

[freeatlast1963]

How much is the cost? Anyone know?

[Celmer77]

190$

[GilbertusesanIbanez]

I think that the cost is like $180 or somewhere in that range

[lookylooky2006]

the Line6 Spiders are very good and for approx $450 a great buy

[Aguitarheroperson]

mine was a spider III 75 wattd for $300

[leftyguitarman27]

Haha I know what you mean by cheap, digital sounding flangers. I recently got a digitech turbo flange peice for of pizza (the kid was hungry!). I think I definititely got the better end of the deal, but the flange is extremely cheezy and overdone.

[cissaman]

Hey David!

Do you know how to get that flanger sound that Dimebag used on Cowboys from hell?

[JonnySniper01]

what part of the song? i may be able to help you out, being a pantera fan and a pedal collector lol

[coupay]

man you look like jordan rudess (dream theater)

[reptar33]

cool, thanks for the review!!!!

[Erikthegitarguy]

lessons like this are very helpfull

[musicispower84]

Yo Taub you are amazing! I love your playing. Not just your lessons, you just play amazing!

[Aguitarheroperson]

I don't need one of those. I have a line 6 spider III 75 watts. I basically have a flanger, reverb, and delay pedal built inside.

[musicispower84]

Me too! Lotza people say it's a horrible amp. But I think it's actually a pretty good amp to use. That's just me though.

[Aguitarheroperson]

Yeah they're like marshall amps too.

[UltimateDud]

(h5) for the Spider III :P

[veetek33]

got the same amp...it kicks ass..but for gigs i use pedals

[Aguitarheroperson]

it's true but they do not have numbers for the flanger,delay,phaser,tremelo,t­ape echo, and sweep echo so it's hard to tell how much you want on those knobs

[itshimkevinkim]

line 6 spider 3's arent good... the effects that come with it arent great either

[cradmoor]

Line 6 effects are cheap in sound.

[Battlehawk731]

Yeah, I agree, but the Verbzilla reverb is the only stombox I would get. That thing is KILLER!!!

[Chikimefuiki]

his face always looks like he is doing the bend or wah haha

he should do a video on talk boxes

[coconutjoe666]

david nice vid but can u do some effects pedals for bass

[UC7media]

that'd be good

[andenahlino]

what about the massage you can see at 07:41 "Unrendered"???

[aec0691]

why do you have "unrendered" popping up atcertain points

[Smudge9494]

David-

what would kind of single coil pickup would you reccomend for a punk rock/pop punk kinda sound, i know you do more classic stuff, but if you have any suggestions i appriciate them.

[deathir123]

You can visit different websites like EMG or Seymour Duncan, they have sound samples of every pickup.. so you can take a look there and listen, for punk rock/pop you dont need too much.

I think a Seymour Duncan its ok for punk and rock

[bazzo1992]

I would say try the Danelectro Lipstick Pickups

[maciu388]

at 04:18 the wahhh sound like zakk wylde how do you do that

[angrytoast123]

A pinch harmonic (also called an artificial harmonic)

[spawndonacle]

You're a great teacher. These videos are really appreciated. Thanks and best of luck.

[WORRO01]

I tell you what man,,if I could play as well as you David, I would never leave the house, I would have a beard that touches my knees, hair to my butt, and would be skiny as a rail because I'd never put the guitar down to shave get a hair cut or eat,,, lol.. great product review.

ROCK ON U R GOOD PEOPLE!

John

[lansej0]

i like this kind of effects lessons and i would like to watch more inspired by lessons i dont know maybe you should do a john mayer lesson or steve vai, or even paul gilbert.

[lkjhgfdsa68]

Helped alot, too bad its kinda expensive though

[guitarboy32]

I like Digitech's moderate priced multi-effects boxes, I have a Digitech RP250 and it has thousands of dollars worth of effects and amp simulators all for $150.

[jorgeslived]

HELL YEA!!!!!!!! i got the same pedal its the shit it has a drummer simulator that you can play along to n you can do a lot of cool stuff with it mayb u sould do a lesson on it that b great

[SlightlyNotorious]

What was that fast riff that you were playing after you said something about the start of a song. I know it from somewhere.

[imbarisaxy]

whoa that thing sounds great

[Laudeball]

awesome

don't they have the zakk wylde version as well

[fuckinee666]

yea the zakk wylde is a super overdrive pedal though

[bradyowns]

Great lesson David!

Is that the Unchained settings nice?

[rockongoodpeople]

the unchained setting is cool - but its real heavy flange

rock on!

DT

[HairMetalNation]

dude u helpd me buy this and it is INSANE

[leanonme78]

i know i'm being a bit cheeky here but any chance of some more acoustic stuff?....love your lessons and thanks for the tip on strings for my martin ..rock on ..from the uk

[mrbolt]

DT you da man

[Chris93Rock]

Yea Eddie Van Halen!

[RockySS94]

cool, looks god, good video. Hey, i need to ask you something, have you ever played on the jimi hendrix experience pedal? cos i wanna get one, what are your thoughts on it?

[rockongoodpeople]

sorry but I have not played through that pedal so I cant really comment

rock on!

DT

[MelodicMetalBoy]

I have the Jimi Hendrix Vox Pedal. The vintage one. It's pretty expensive. But anyways, is there any, fair price for a EVH pedal?

[rockongoodpeople]

I think the evh pedal is about $150 or so

rock on!

DT

[MelodicMetalBoy]

Wow.. In Europe that would be expensive. like 400 dollars. In France everything is expensive. I live their unfortunately. I wanna go back to the u.s... and shipping from U.S.A takes a long time. 3 weeks minimum,.., could take up to a month.

P.S: I just bought an ESP Eclipse and it sounds badass!

Rock on!

[bigrock007]

So why you don´t post one video? All videos I saw were great so rock on
