  • it's kind of impossible to get better than this short of being eddie, and its probably better than that

  • what a rich person that red van halen guitar on the backround costs around 14,000 dollars

  • SICK DUDE!!!

  • evh' s guitar at the background? :O

  • how does the second harmonic works at 0:13?

    Cheers,

    Robin :o)

  • best by far on youtube.....

  • love the nonchalant resting of the arms at the finish.

  • Literally 'Perfect'

  • 38 people can't beat Level 1-1

  • oh thts a sexy guitar..u play like pro..

  • what pickup do you use??

  • Awesome, awesome work, would've been unreal in the right key though :-P

  • /watch?v=5-41ymRt90c

  • Eddie did this in the studio in one take. hes a GOD

  • I think this guy is the best out of all others - That's my my opinion.

  • absolute MASTER, just as good or even better than the original. Respect Osvaldo! :D

  • best beat it cover on youtube man. keep up with ur work! \m/ Γαμάς!

  • perfeito.. parabens. um dos melhores que ja vi.. keep it up man

  • Perfect ._.

  • nicee!!!!

  • the best cover on youtube by beat it!

  • one of the greatest intro into a solo ever. so simple but deadly. sounds kinda like turning on a killing machine (and y'know what? this solo IS a killing machine). and this guy reproduced it perfectly.

  • nice....awesome sound too

  • One of the best covers of this song!

    Perfect!

    Congratulations!

  • this is really great !

  • Best cover on youtube!! can you tell me what picks are you using?! :)

  • incredible!

  • playing guitar is not just speed. awesome.

  • Wow

  • Dude that was fantastic - and what a beautiful guitar, not to mention the frankie on the wall too. I just posted a version of this too, along with a lesson on how to play the solo. rock on!

    PDXguitarfreak (Dave)

  • @PDXguitarfreak I think this was awesome, will check yours out after this!

  • Wiped the asses of everyone else's cover - that was awesome.

  • whats the guitar you are playing did you make it yourself

  • the 38 haters who voted dislike can go screw themselves

  • I'm starting to think this is actually EVH playing this. It's too fucking perfect.

  • It's sick that you can play this.... But what's even sicker to me is that someone (Eddie) came up with it.

  • Now that's great tone.

  • muito bom !!

  • amazing beatiful but do one with the frankinstrat in the back  just to give it more eddie van halen feel ;)

  • You nailed it!

  • dove posso trovare le tab per questo solo ???

  • Dude you kidding me!? Only 270k hits, i can remember watched this video couple years ago, and was like this is the best cover of "beat it" solo on youtube no doubt!!!

  • how much do you pay this great guitare ?

  • Who in their right mind can give this a thumbs down???!!!

    Probably the most perfectly executed cover I've heard.

  • @mutinyvizier

    the only reason is because, one his covers better than theirs or they jizzed over his guitar!!

  • very nice guitar and tone

  • lmfao my life savings= that guitar

  • michael jackson beat it......

  • Fuck the cock suckers giving you a thumbs down, you tell em.

  • what guitar was that and nice playing

  • This guitar is based on the original one that Eddie made which was black and white. He then painted it red which became the legendary Frankenstrat

  • what pickups do you use? i also want to have that sensible sound without too much distortion... i almost have to punch my guitar to tap

  • yea me too but its cuz my parents wont buy my a better guitar and amp they think that guitar is a waste of time

  • o and just bring the tone up to 10 that makes it pick up a little more

  • wow..great cover

  • すげー

  • better than eddie i would say

  • Great playing but the sound needs work. make another video and put your playing in the left channel and the original song to the right and then it'll be easy to tell the difference.

  • ok captain anal retentive. are you gonna tell him how to wipe his ass next? sheesh.

  • I'll tell him whatever I want...last I checked - this was a free country. If you don't like it - leave.

  • leave huh? where am i to go hardass?  fucking douchebag

  • "hey like....uh...next time.....you should like....rent out a studio..and then record a youtube video there. it would sound better"  moron.

  • Go to another country which doesn't have freedom of speech. This way, when someone makes a comment you do not agree with, you can kill them. Iran or China might be a good place for you.

  • Is that EVH playing the guitar.............?

  • holy shit that was great

  • nice

  • Best I have seen so far......I like the technique more than anything. Nice dynamics.....The only thing I would change is tone...(maybe amp or pedals or something) I really love it like it is but I would mess with the tone. As a guitar player tone is everything and my tone isn't maybe what you or others may like. Its all very personal. 5 stars again

  • rant rant rant

  • flawless

  • you are jaw dropping

    awsome

    good luck with what ur doing.

    peace

  • That´s Great

    Jacko for Ever...... RIP

  • woww that was perfect!

  • Caralho cara, tu é foda! Só uma dica, tenta não se atrasar depois daquela sequência 5 - 7 - 5 -7 na corda G... Ainda assim 5/5!

  • how do you do the thing where you tap on the fret board to get the harmonics @ 0:12

    and 0:13

  • yeah thats gotta be the best on youtube, awesome!

  • mazel tov

  • lol he's Eddie in person

  • i liked it but it was a bit laid back and kinda lazy from your side sum more energy wud have fitted in

  • 100%!

  • HOOOOOOOO yeah the cover on youtube!!! fantastic job!!

  • Yo. how can get Pinch Harmonic with my fingertips??? it wont work

  • i'm pretty sure those aren't pinch harmonics. they're tapped natural harmonics...with lots of distortion. typically your main natural harmonics are on the 5th 7th and 12th frets with some odd balls in between. but if you're already fretting lets say, the 2nd fret. those natural harmonics move to the 7th 9th and 14th frets. tap the neck in those spots while fretting with some nice vibrato and you should get some pretty sick sounding harmonics. experiment with different spots on the neck too.

  • its a natural harmonic.

  • try barely touching the bar between the 14 and 15 fret. make sure you dont leave you finger on for too long. if done corectly, it should create a. artificial harmonic

  • if your pickups are really shitty its almost impossible, you have to tap on the metal fret inlay that seperates the frets.

  • ur insane man u own any one

  • holy shit, best cover of this song ever!

  • SERIOUSLY. I guess he deserves to own the $25k EVH guitar.

  • Ciao osvaldo ! sono il ragazzo ke hai incontrato a spinazzola e ke ti ha fatto i complimenti x la serata ! ti ho pubblicato un video di risp....l'unico purtroppo ke sn riuscito a fare, anke l'audio nn è dei migliori ma ne farò altri migliori !! Ciaooo !!

    PLZ

  • Bravo man.

  • that guitar is fucking sick i would give my right nut for that guitar

  • R.I.P. mj

  • this is one of the best covers for this solo on youtube i've ever seen 5/5 :)

  • Idk why but i can not do a freakin pinch harmonic!!!!!!!!!!! its killin me I wanna do one and im sure its freakin easy but i cant get the thing to do it...

  • dude. an awesome advice for pinch harmonics is, when you pick let your thumb hit the string after the pick, just so the skin touches. don't press, use it like your picking. Then, bend the string. its better if you hold down a fret to learn how to pinch xD i like it, its good, but i'm a neoclassical player.

  • Advice? thats just plain how pinch harmonics work o.o but you're right though...

  • Damn dude, you got it. One of the best!

  • THE BEST!

  • LOL ... the best!

  • the only person that ive herd play that so well was the man him self.

  • the neck on that charvel looks so incredibly nice.

  • I noticed that as well.
