Perhaps the most exciting crossover I've ever seen

Seeing his rig still set up in that studio brought me to tears.

Ed's still gifting us tone nuggets of gold. Pretty amazing that he wanted to do this when he did. God bless Ed, and thanks to Matt, Yoshi, and everyone else who helped realize this.

The clips of 5150 Studios had me tearing up. Ed is missed big time. Great job guys on the pedal! 👍✌️

Serious levels of goosebumps. An amazing story, amazing products, amazing people ! BOSS & EVH, i feel like a kid on Christmas morning !

Pete Thorn! Your playing throughout this promo is STELLAR! Amazing piece of music that emulates Eddie to a Tee! I don't even play guitar and I'm all weepy and excited about this pedal and the encapsulation of the EVH tone in a box! So many guitar players are going to over the moon! Thanks to all who were involved in bringing to fruition one of Edward's dreams! I'm sure there are more to come. ❤🤍🖤🎸👑

This is the Golden Age for guitar players effects!! The dedication and skill that went into this, and the results, are truly a dream come true!!

[OeHomestead]

Wow! Just wow! That's so awesome and it's really great seeing Pete Thorn involved in the development of the product. And not to mention the music he made for the video. The spirit of Eddie lives on.

[Rob-dpvr]

I'm still shocked Eddie is gone. Every now and then I am reminded, and it's still hard to believe.

I kept hearing the music for this video leaning in to "Me Wise Magic". A fantastic song and amazing guitar tone.

BOSS were always smart. And always delivered. Including Pete Thorn is a clever move.

Cool to see Matt in an interview. He should do much more. He is a witness to guitar history.

the SDE-1000 I have, I've had since my teens. The only piece of equipment to survive my crazy life. I'm stoked to see it in the sunlight like this. Definitely buying this yesterday.
