New EVH version of Runnin' w/ the Devil

[indeedido]

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:

[ELVIS]

Sounds like his squishy peavey tone of the last several years...

i agree, should be longer

Woah, it didn't sound very good...wonder what happened???

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?

[FORD]

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.

[Hummarstra]

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"...

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...

You find any others ??

[Coyote]

Timeline/Where to Buy has a bit of "Romeo Delight"

Downloads has a touch of "Hot For Teacher".

[ELVIS]

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.
