I was checking out evhgear.com today, and noticed they have a new front page.
then when you go into the frankenstrat page, music auto starts, and it is an exerpt from runnin' with the devil, only it isn't the original, it is a redo currently, must be with the new amp. Kinda sounds like an average Joe playing it, not EVH. Generic sounding
Thought it interesting enought to post in main rather than gear.
OK, it was the album version until very recently...wonder what happened? Warner Bros. clamp down on the usage?
You'd think if they were trying to sell the amp, the new clip would have been longer/more interesting...:confused:
Sounds like his squishy peavey tone of the last several years...
i agree, should be longerOriginally posted by jhale667

Woah, it didn't sound very good...wonder what happened???
ONE BREAK COMMIN' UP...
Sounds like some yahoo at Guitar Center, not King Ed!
Where the flying fook is the brown, baby??
Apparently there are more soundclips of different Van HALEN songs on the site.... you gotta click around and hunt for them. Over at Links they seem to think it sounds like Eddie's post-VDIII tone. They would certainly know that better than I.
These could possibly be from the tour rehearsals earlier this year maybe?

Yeah, now that I hear the other clips, it's definitely Eddie. The Unchained clip that you hear when you click on "The Case" sounds almost exactly like the VDIII tour version.
Yeh, that's pretty much how Ed play nowadays. Like a fifteen year old Green Day wanna be at Guitar Center anywhere USA.
Oh, and that Peavey sounds asstastic. Bring back the Marshall ED!!!!

I think I agree, but I'm confused as to what you mean by "post-VDIII"...Originally posted by FORD

The tone is very close to the tone on the live Van Cherone clips on youtube...

It's a Fender...
Doesn't matter though, still sounds like the squishy pre-amp distortion of a newer Peavey...
Lemme check that out...Originally posted by FORD

You find any others ??
Timeline/Where to Buy has a bit of "Romeo Delight"
Downloads has a touch of "Hot For Teacher".
Why settle for something you have, if it's not as good as something you're out to get?

I found them...
There's part of the solo to Runnin With The Devil, two clips of Romeo Delight (not too bad) and one or two of Hot For Teacher...
Hmmm...
I suppose it could be worse...
Hopefully these clips were recorded pre-rehab...
That's what I'm thinking.... it's the tour rehearsals before they pulled the plug. And since the site exists to sell guitars & amps, they didn't want to include any vocals.Originally posted by ELVIS

100% correct.Originally posted by ELVIS

Makes sense to me...
Yup, that's what think as well, pre-rehab recordings during the initial tour rehearsals.Originally posted by FORD

That is definitely Al playing, and possibly Wolfie on the bass.
Still, nice to hear something "current" or whatever.
The Unchained intro sounds slow though.

Yes, that is Ed, Al and the kid.
The Guy = DLR maybe??????
No, that is not Ed, Al and the kid.Originally posted by The Guy

I said so and I'm more reliable around here than you are. And have been proven right more often.
Prove me wrong.
Can you?
Twistin' by the pool.
Nope. Just a troll that strolls in every once in a blue moon with an "inside scoop" on Van Halen that amounts to old information already known written creatively, and it's been proven numerous times.Originally posted by jharp84

Don't buy the hype...
I ain't buying "SHIT" when it comes to this band!!!!
All of those clips lack the old Eddie energy. His playing is sluggish and sloppy and has been for some time now. Also, I can't handle that dry crunchy tone.The Unchained intro sounds slow though
And God heard the voice of the lad. Then the angel of God called to Hagar out of heaven, and said to her, “What ails you, Hagar? Genesis 21:17
Unchained sounds like shit. The flanger is way too outfront. I think he has forgotten how it goes.
This space for rent.
it's funny that the amp is supposed to release this month, and there is no hype what so ever about it. usually the marketing machine is going on these things. They have no momentum on it. No demo or soundclips or info other than coming soon. what a joke
Sort of reminds me of the Tom Shulz rack mount Rock Man.
On those clips, Eddie is tuned down 1/2 step like he was during the CVH days.

Could that be a SIGN! OF HOPE???
Cool find and thanks. Hearin' the lil' bits of classic riffage gave me the goosebumps. I actually don't mind his tone. I liked his fills on RWTD and the flang on Unchained was pretty cool too.
I also think it's a good sign that every track was CVH and did anyone notice the picks that come in the case? The REAL VAN HALEN LOGO!!!
I know I'm more optimistic than most but...
Roth On!!!
EAT US AND SMILE!!!!
the sound never gets old
Romeo Delight didn't sound too awful bad...
I like how the say, "We even will throw in some EVH guitar picks, hold on to these babies they are rare." they better fucking come with guitar picks, I'm spending $25,000.
I wonder if Fender will refinish it under warranty...
Yeah, that actually sounded pretty good.Originally posted by ELVIS

Keep in mind folks, these recordings were obviously done "pre-rehab", so Ed certainly was not at the top of is game.
My guess is that they removed the original recordings, threw these in as a preview on how the new guitar and amp sounds like.
What do ya wanna bet spEd tries to pull a Sharon Osbourne and get Wolfie to re-record the bass tracks on all 6 of the CVH albums?
Fuck that worthless, tongueless piece of fucking shit.
I diagree with alot here. I don't think that those sound bites are from Ed pre rehab or shit like that. The tone of that guitar and amp is definitly around the time that Balance or VHIII came out.
The sound is not the classic sound that Ed displayed on the fender stage at NAMM, and that was pre rehab. Go to Ed's gear page and click on the news section. There's the video of him playing. It's a totally differant sound.
I think they just used some sound bytes from another era, It was when he was using either the MM or wolfgang guitar, and the peavy amps.
I'm sorry, but I would not pay a $100 to hear Ed play like this. Even if Dave was in the band.
I hear ya man...I just don't know, if Ed is playing like that, no matter how well the rest of the band plays it won't sound good...if Ed plays bad, the whole band sounds bad.Originally posted by Hummarstra

Could have been Wolf covering for dad while he was in rehab.
