Ed

[mmmtacos]

Go to yt and type........"van halen medley windsor"

It's the one that is 10:05 long

The closest Ed playing I've ever heard

And he uses a pv Windsor one channel old school designed amp

[kramer.geetar]

Damn, thats.....wow. Just goes to show you don't need a $3000 handwired Marshall or Metro Amp etc.

[80sKramer]

Impressive, he nailed the playing and the tone! I like his george lynch approach as well on the other video

[sixstring]

Yup, he's got it dialed in.

Me too! Have been a Lynch fan since about '84. It always amazes me that for every one player that gets the spotlight, there are 100 in basements and in bedrooms all across the country that completely smoke everyone else lol. I am 39, and work for the railroad. About 9 years ago I was working with a younger conductor (he was about 24 at the time), and he mentioned that he played the guitar a little bit. I was heading to Sam Ash to look around when we got off the train, and asked if he would like to come along, and he accepted. We walk in and he picks a strat up of the wall and plugs in ... he tunes the guitar, and within a minute he had every employee and customer in the store standing around us. He was ripping through Yngwie, Becker, and other players licks like they were his warm-up. I never picked up a guitar that day. To this day I still tease him about playin the guitar A LITTLE ...

He's kidding all of us: he IS Ed.

[moku]

wow, he definitely nailed it. luv his lynch stuff too

[mmmtacos]

He's kidding all of us: he IS Ed.

I was thinking......... Could it really be Ed

[mmmtacos]

If I was in that situation and a guy handed a guitar to me after playing like that I'd be like "No Way!"

Also, seems like he put some Ed's isolated guitar tracks on the player and point the camera at the amp.

[80sKramer]

I just noticed, apparently in the Lynch video, he was babysitting .

[Pacerimperial]

I was wondering if anyone was going to mention that. I kept thinking that perhaps I was watching the wrong video. It was like "Am I the only one who can see the little kid on his back moving around in the background?" At least the little kid is getting to hear some great guitar playing.

[ZebStrype]

[JarrodTheBobo]

GOD THIS PISSES ME OFF!

I saw this video about a year ago, and was the main reason I got a Windsor....

I CANNOT FIGURE OUT HIS SETTINGS


hehe, all well. I still enjoy the windsor..

[G.A.S. Ackward]

Damn

Mind blowing.

[mmmtacos]

Keep in mind the amp could have been modded

He said it wasn't

[mmmtacos]

I couldnt remember it's been so long. When I posted that vid it was before I got my head.

Now that I've had it for while I have to say the guy is got to be lying.

Those tones aren't in there stock imo

I can get CLOSE to Eddies tone with my rig, but I have 2 extra ODs, and different tubes. gonna have to record it sometime....

[Mrpeeps81]

Thats pretty damn close to the original brown sound. His playing blows my mind.

[Ark]

That humm you here sounds like the power section is running wide open. It sounds similiar when i Crank most marshall style amps with el34s or 6ca7's all the way and than run into my rockman powersoak.

[0 Xero 0]

Well I doubt you'll get any answers out of him. It says his last activity was in 2009. I guess the mystery will endure, haha.
