Somebody Get Me A Doctor-Van Halen Cover

[warmaster2006]

Killer job dude...BTW how do you call that technique you make the harmonics sliding your right hand at 2:08?

[guitarkid177]

how did you do that guitar sweep thing at 2:10?

[frankenstrat25]

@guitarkid177 its something EVH found and used many many times. you gently put ur pinky of ur pick hand on the G string and do not press down to hard or u wont get the harmonic but too light and only noise. u rapidly hammer on and pull off on the string and glide ur hand up and down the strings and the harmonics will change in pitch. sry if im not that good with explaining the easiest way is just to try it out

[1313motley1313]

@frankenstrat25 oh, thats how, i was wondering how, i heard that alot in Van Halen 1

[NewMexicoSunset]

Well done! Pretty damn close!

[zash005]

hi waht kind of guitar do you have? is it an HSS fender mim? thanks

[brian3377]

I love how you seperated the channels. I can clearly hear you AND the backing track.

[mgabyschumacher]

what are your settings on the amp?

[pinballwizard1234]

he put them in the description

[BrantTownsend]

Is that pencil led i see on the nut?

[Thorny2]

@BrantTownsend Good eye!

[BrantTownsend]

@Thorny2 thought so. i used to put that on the nut too

[BlackWolfgang70]

great 5 stars

[pinballwizard1234]

he's not using pinch harmonics. if you look at his picking hand, he's sliding his hand up and down the strings

[CSN152]

those harmonics at 2:09... How?

[benjamman]

hammer on pull offs with your fret hand and lightly slide the fatty part of the palm on your pick hand across corresponding string over the pickups.

[spacecadet404]

that's a really good idea with the left and right track thing. if i ever get enough money to afford an electric guitar (i only have an acoustic and a bass) i'm going to totally steal your idea lol

[daytripper71]

I really can't understand how to get these armonics at 2:09....

[PoisonJoviRocker]

do a hammer on on any string, and just hammer and pull off 0-2-4 and slide your hand up the string.

[zer0dahero]

Nice job

[Particleman307]

Awesome! How do you get those harmonics at 2:09?

[AllanHP]

He pulls the strings with the left hand, while setting the "place" of the harmonics, near the pickups, with the right hand(with the pick of the fingers)...

very tricky, but with some patience and practice, you can nail it!

[Cedrictheheadric]

good job

just work on your timing a bit and add pinch harmonics at the breakdown before the solo on the laast note its the shit

literally hahahahhahah

[popitypops]

Well, you are definately better than me, the recording is higher quality -- but I got the same guitar (except rosewood fretboard) -- LOL. Anyway, I posted a video response just for laughs.

[Loiyaboy]

Excellent! Most folks THINK they can play EVH.. you captured it. Kudos!

[thefreshman07]

You should do D.O.A. man

[SstalkerS]

is that strat american made?

[raffstd]

thats the closest thing ive heard to the brown sound . well done sir

[hellbound31]

dude you kicked ass!!!!

[mophoplz]

friggin awesome :D

[downpaymentblues311]

ohsorry any other effects you got going ? reverb anything ? thanks

[downpaymentblues311]

i have the same amp... im wondering what your volume is set at on your guitar... i cant quite get the same tone but close

[Thorny2]

if you don't have the same pickup, it will sound way different! The PAF is a big part of Eds sound.

[Perikado]

Hallo man, very goog tone. What pot uses with this H-S-S Strat, 250K or 500K????

Thanks

[Thorny2]

500

[eNJoy42o]

[upst8]

Cool as hell! Neat trick about replacing Eddie's guitar track with your own.

[gilchannel]

Thorny2 Rulez!! Thoroughly enjoyed your take on this! Gotta love VH. Saw them live during the Hagar period. *****
