Eddie Van Halen Ice Cream Man Cover

[Sean2592]

The only thing i can say you need bud is more vibrato. since Ed uses a lot of it. Tone is great all the trembelo stuff is spot on

[SubGunner]

@Sean2592 Thanks but he really dont use a lot in this solo....when he does use it i think i covered it good enough...lol

[ghero1123]

Wow that performance was incomparable u totally nailed that bro and good job on the tone too

[ruffles272]

You nailed eddie van halens feel. I don't understand why the video has any dislikes

[guitarguy871]

Man i agree it is so much easier to tap the intro i cant stretch like eddie man so i gotta tap it too. It doesnt matter if you tap the intro as long as it sounds good you know what i mean and you did good. So screw the haters man your awesome!

[ZiotheZero]

My fingers don't stretch out that far to do it like EVH does, but tapping works and sounds pretty good too.

[ohrisp]

Wow, great job! I see several players who know all the notes, but you actually captured the *feel* right, which is where most of the magic is! On top of that, you got the tone right, too! Please keep up the good work! BTW, whose cover is this (i.e. the backing vocals, drums, bass, etc)? If you guys record a cover to mp3 I'd like to buy it.

[mastersduhgree]

Nooo....noo sugunner...you sound fine(im an old player) but i know what it takes to make that guitar work and you sound fine son.Really.

[ragazzometallico]

that was fucking great

[edwardvanhalen123456]

shit man, i think you tappin the first part is awesome, not a bad thing. Yeah eddie doesnt do it that way but you came up with an easier way of doing it. Plus everything looks cooler when fingertapped haha.

Could you pleeeeeeeeeeease gimme tabs for the fingertapping beginning part, i been playin for over 5 years but not spiractically, so im kinda good. But i love fingertapping, so if you could do that it would be really great, peace.

[SubGunner]

@edwardvanhalen123456 lmao thanks dude i appreciate the comment.

I will make a video soon of this when i get a better camera. Although i dont have any tabs of it. I just looked up a tab that seemed pretty accurate and just tapped that highest note all the way up to the A string. Having a good tone with a phaser really helps it out to.

[SubGunner]

lol ty nsalam.. I will make one slower when i get my ibanez workin again. Should be fixed within the next few days.

I also need a better camera so it will be more clearer and no delay so u can understand it better.

[nsalam11]

Sub, can you slow it down for us ? By the way, can't see your good looks in the vid ; some people might think it is Eddie playing !

[nsalam11]

great, looking forward to it....

[SubGunner]
