Homebrew plexi/bassman tube amp "Grizzly 100" a Traynor YBA-1A mkII clone, set up with KT66 tubes, AC/DC, Thin Lizzy, Judas Priest, Metallica riffs, random noodling, plus a cute baby
I'm pretty sure EVH used el34. A cranked plexi w/ el34 into an attenuator, some reasonably hot pickups and preamp tubes with good gain will get you there I think.

what kind of tubes you use for the pream? 12AX7?

@lastardo Yes, they are all 12AX7, I think I had various Russian New Sensor types (Sovtek, Electro-Harmonix, or Tung-Sol).

It´s good you have humor to read some kind of comments. =)
Well, the tone of your amp is insane! I´m buying a handmade plexi from a brazilian handmaker, and I want to ask you something.
I want a guitar sound closely to EVH´s tone (i´ll buy an atenuator either) and I don´t have sure what kind of tube to power it: el34 or 6550.
Any sugesttions? Thanks
