What are you doing here on this guitarist forum? Do you want to teach guitarists theory? The fact that you keep reminding yourself how great your teacher is doesn't mean anything. Then you ask...
The playing is nice too!
I think EVH was mad at theory for this song. The horror begins about the 1:00 mark... what comes in sounding like someone stepping on a bagpipe is his guitar - something terribly wrong with tuning,...
Yes, that is LCS-2 Larry Coryell. Here is mine (pickguard and pickups are not original).
Hi All. There’s been a lot of work going on, moving and setting up the new workshop. I wasn’t prepared for how much work. Although I’ve been recording vlogs nearly everyday; when the day is done,...
What compels you to say he 'didn't use it' when we know for a fact he studied it and knew it, and his playing follows it? That's ridiculous. It's not called the mad-at-theory thread for nothing! 24...

+1 for Hall of Fame. Alas, mine died.

EVH knew the theory but didn't use it. I mean, he got his theoretical knowledge while studying at school, then he doesn't mess with his head. Simply brilliant.
"I already love the sound of this guitar." That sure sounds like a reason just to leave it alone.
G'day all, I'm playing an Epiphone Emperor Regent through a 12 watt Fi-Sonic vintage tube amp and the Guitar is fitted with Roto-Sound stainless,flat wound strings ,12-53 gauge. The tone is a bit...
Ask ten guitarists about reverb units and you'll get thirteen opinions. I use the Hall of Fame with my 5E3 clone. Sounds fine. I like just a hint of reverb.
