"I'm going to try and work it out so at the end it's a pure guts race......because if it is.....I'm the only one that can win" - Steve Prefontaine -
he'll be one of the most everlasting names in guitar as well as rock 'n' roll history from here on out. RIP. -
LEGEND.
RIP the brown tone.
What a legacy on rhythm, fills, lead, tone and love of the instrument.
Those songs.......what a chapter in so many lives from high school through today......
I took delivery of my EVH 2020 Frankie relic a month or so ago and it plays like a dream. I will keep it forever.Jackson KV2

You know, Charvel and Jackson in no small part owe their success to EVH. Eddie sourcing parts from Wayne Charvel, then making it, Charvel got to ride the rocket with Eddie. This very forum exists in part because of Eddie. RIPComment

How many tennis rackets became guitars while we
did our own Impressions of Eddie, as we became
Eddie long enough to play Eruption
Thank You, Eddie.
Your Inspiration And Innovation Will Live On
Through Countless Generations Yet To Come.
Rest In Peace

Phillip McKnight said in a recent video about Eddie that he pretty much created what would become the superstrat when he first swapped a humbucker into his strat.Originally posted by CaptNasty View PostComment

He wasn't just one of the greatest, he was one of the most innovative and influential rock guitarists ever.

Godspeed Eddie!
You did excellent man!
There is definitely a disturbance in the force.
2020 sucks even more!
This has been all over the net of course.
Saw you, the original band back in the day..
Although DLR is king, glad you let Sammy into the band so that Hot for Teacher would be a raise in chakra level and mostly of the times as in Right Now!
And although Mike Anthony has that great high signature VH backup voice glad you let your son Wolfie into the band for the thrill of playing in his dad's band!
