Visiting after hearing about Eddie's passing. Rock on! RIP Eddie

[johndoderino]

0:30 you got that just right, really digging into those notes! So many players don't give enough attention to little nuances of phrasing. RIP Eddie

[Robcadams]

I'm impressed. Best cover I've ever heard.

[Gitfiddle]

What else can you say? Nailed it. What I love about Ed is his tasteful shredding and super tight, yet somehow loose sounding, rhythm playing. He's one of the best rhythm players ever.

Best van halen cover I've ever seen

[cmccarthy]

I keep coming back to listen to this, and I just feel like it gets a little better every time. The tone is absolutely spot on, the phrasing is perfect, and it's note for note precision. Of all your covers, this is the absolute best. Further, it is the best Unchained cover on youtube without question.

I started playing guitar when I was 6, and I learned different styles over the years. When I was about 16 my cousin let me listen to Van Halen II...I was amazed. I was playing Steve Howe note for note at age 12, but this VanHalen stuff was off the hook, and I pretty much gave up. 30 years later I am back at it. Great video, and thanks for the inspiration!

[MightyGreedo]

Unchained was the reason why I bought a guitar when I was a young lad. Sadly, I haven't touched the thing in 15 years. But that was an excellent video and brought back a lot of memories. Nice work!

[Durango]

Your playing and sound is really on the mark. Relaxed and smooth. I like how you articulated all the notes with no slop. True to the recording. I loved watching and listening. Thanks

[markrussell.]

Seriously good, might be the best cover of this that I have heard on YT.

[borinightmare]

This one is for you Eddie! Great cover man! The legend would've been proud of you.

[mynameisgod]

Insane how even when it’s just fills, it is just non stop movement all up and down the neck. Well done

[travisglenn]

That is the best cover I have heard. Great job! Flanger was dead on!

[robertluttrell]

Seeing it played really shows what a unique rhythm player ed was. He was the man!

[johnj]

Man you nailed everything...sounds exactly like the album original. To top it off you have a replica of the Frankenstrat wired up just like Ed's. Amazing job!

[johnpeterson]

Awsome, the best I've seen on here so far, you got it down, you hit every note man, great job!!!

[daleperkins]

In all my years of listening to this song I never realized just how much the 2nd overdubbed guitar did. Also, the flanger is absolutely DEAD ON!!!

[brodygarretson]

i love the sliding up and down the guitar, it makes the song intresting

[JakeReeger]

The best version on Youtube!  Well done Sir!

[MatcoSteve]

Omg!! This cover is dead on perfect!! The sound and tone is spot on!!Awesone
