    Tip 4 slam a beer
    Tip 5: line up some blow
    Tip 6: light up a fatty
    Tip 7: crack goes snap/crackle in the pipe

                    Spew them out of your gullet all soaking in digestive chum.

                      In all seriousness, Panamark is correct...obtain an old Marshall Super Lead. I would also recommend at the very least you get an MXR Phase 90. The bad thing about this is you have to crank the holy fuck out of your amplifier, because there is nothing but a single volume control on those old amps. I would suggest a THD Hotplate, so your neighbors don't kill you in your sleep.

                          I suggest finding your own sound and avoid getting stuck in Van Halenland. be original and leave the copying to the followers.

                          Be a leader....

                            Yeah that is true Cathedral, but some people's tone just sucks total ass, so I say use Ed's old tone as a reference point. I gotta admit it would be nice to just be able to dial up the "Van Halen II tone," or the Unchained tone. My tone doesn't sound that much like Ed...probably somewhere between old George Lynch and Jimmy Page. LOL
