This guy is a total dipshit Remind me what was wrong with just using a stealth 5153 in the first place, ya know…the actual amps the man himself used the last 10years of his touring career?

Pretty sure Ed made it work with an amp that notoriously has subpar cleans. Evidence below

Who cares?

Guy can afford whatever he wants and has more skill than this entire forum combined.

Geez.

 

[rsm]

well Satriani isn't EVH so he needs more tools.

 

[CrystalSky]

Give him a rag so he cleans his existing amps then

Geez.

Speak for yourself bruh. There are a lot of great players on this forum.

Also, this has nothing to do with affording gear. This is about what a jackass he is. He’s a great player and the videos of him lately have shown he’s practiced and got the chops to pull off the VH songs which is all you need. Why didn’t he think of adding the cleans on his new amp he just got?

drove by the amphitheater the other night when this tour was there, all i could think was how awesome it was to not be there lol

He can't just roll down the guitar volume while coil splitting and get by with that?

 

[SpiderWars]

Well I don’t tour and I’m not even in a band…and I fucking need a new clean amp. So Joe? Yeah he can have a new amp for crying out loud.

Does Eddie have a piezo in that sound? It sounds like a low gain dirty humbucker + piezo

The geek can’t get a clean tone out of that $5,000 Trans-Amp?

Eh, why do that?? It dosent generate views, likes and comments like a news article can

Just the guitar volume rolled back and the green channel of the 5150 set to crunch. With a very healthy dose of Eventide.

Yep he had a few guitars loaded with piezos. His clean tone never rewrote the book on anything. His base was a piezo loaded guitar with Eventide micro pitch through a w/d/w rig. Thats it.

Also, pretty sure Best of Both Worlds has the same clean tones as Can’t Stop Loving You so why is he managing it here? What’s the difference? Chasing album tones is moot in this case.

All he has to do is roll his guitar’s volume off, those guitars of his have a pull-pot to activate a treble bleed. Can’t imagine having to be cleaner than that.
I just read the article. What a crock of shit. Those amps have a response switch, high gain and Plexi modes. The Plexi mode can be set clean. He has FOUR heads. He can set one clean.
I’m losing some respect for Joe. Seems as he’s getting older he’s becoming an asshole.
