Van Halen - Pleasure Dome (Guitar Cover)

"Pleasure Dome" has got to be one of Van Halen's most underrated songs.

I love EVH's guitar tone in the album & his playing style in this song.

My gear for this video:

Ibanez JEM 7DBK
Boss GT100
Zoom R24 (as audio interface)
Logic Pro X

I do not own the rights to the song in this video.

People who refuse to listen to the Sammy stuff are missing out on gems like this. Awesome job!

[VanHalenStarWars]

Very impressive...that solo is extremely challenging...you nailed that sick run!

[jjwasilewski]

One of my favorites by Van Halen, and arguably my favorite Ed solo. You nailed it

[richarde]

Fantastic job! Reminds us what a hell of a composer Ed was. RIP King

[AMSOfficial]

Best cover I have seen. I love this EVH tone.

This is awesome, I've been searching on and off for years for a good quality closeup of Eddie playing parts of this song and here it is, the whole song in full clarity. You nailed it. I always wanted to see how the slick run at 1:58 halfway through the pre-chorus is done.

I've been waiting for this cover to happen. Nice one bro!

Thank You Brother for sharing some really beautiful stuff. Really awesome playing, and this tune is best heard when the whole house and windows shake.

thanks for this video man, its so hard too find someone play this song, this is legit probably by favorite song by VH the guitar playing is absolutely insane and i love his tone on this album even more than the brown sound imo i always had trouble trying too figure out what the heck was he playing on this song so im pretty much gonna use this video as a guide too help LOL

[Mossy]

Killer job and tone! That left leg was going nuts, I do the same thing when I play... 😂

[billbbobby]

*Great work brother, it's such a great progressive vibe.*

Awesome, I love the whole F.U.C.K. album, but this one has always been one of my favourites. Loved your cover, awesome!!

That was an amazing piece of guitar playing. Congratulations. EVH was so incredibly creative. How do you even think up something like that?
