[@batpigguitar]

Great stuff mate.

[@gtsvl]

Cheers mate!

Been thinking about getting one of those 78 guitars, now after watching your playing I’ll probably get one…..and hang it on the wall….

[@sharijonbriel409]

i have the same setup except boss waza tube amp expander i also have EVH 5150III Stealth 100W Cabinet loaded with g12 evh greenbacks and i also have a evh striped series black and white that has stock wolfgang bridge pickup that i plan on changing to evh wolfgang neck pickup its wound to 17K can i get the settings your using on amp

[@gtsvl]

That’s the exact setup I have here minus the TAE, the Iconic doesn’t need huge drive in the power section so I didn’t use my TAE. I swapped the pickup for the Frankenstein, once put a neck Wolfgang in a bridge position and it didn’t sound good. But personal choice so hope it sounds good for you.

Yeah man...nice job

[@mattnobrega6621]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🤘😎 That sound is on point 🫨

[@mdv1236]

Phenomenal brother! Have you been satisfied with the whammy bar and how well it stays in tune? And was all the amplification straight from the iconic, no distortion pedals or eqs? Thanks for posting this awesome video

[@gtsvl]

Thanks bro! The trem stays in tune about as well as any other non Floyd guitar, if you’re hard on it tuning will be out, but has a nice big brass block which gives it a good edge. This is straight into the Iconic, no pedals besides delay, using channel 2.

[@vancedean9699]

Great tone my friend. Dead on

[@gtsvl]

Thanks Vance! 🙏

[@radio5051]

I think that’s one of the closest tones I’ve heard to Eddies VH1 sound. Well done.

[@gtsvl]

Thanks Bevan!

[@Utopia-bp1dk]

I have heard some other demos of this guitar and I have seen people who plug it into a Non-EVH vibe amp and it still sounds EVH-ish...this guitar is truly amazing.

[@bweeks8869]

Which EVH Iconic? 60W, 15W? Loved your tone!!

[@radio5051]

That reverb sounds incredible from that EHX pedal. What setting did you use. Plate or echo maybe?

[@gtsvl]

I definitely used echo for this one, there was a short delay which I ran from the EHX not my normal delay, but other settings I wouldn't remember sorry Bevan.

[@sharijonbriel409]

does anyone know settings he is using on the amp have same setup

[@gtsvl]

Channel 2 - Gain 4, Bass 4, Middle 5.5, High 5, Res 4, Pres 6, Vol about 2.5. Burn switch off. Noise gate off, reverb off (coming from a EXH Cathedral plus delay).

[@Andrew-pk9vz]

Very nice! How do you like the neck compared to the Frankie?

[@gtsvl]

Thank you! Neck is pretty much identical to the Frankie, love it.

[@Andrew-pk9vz]

@@gtsvl That’s Kool, I love the EVH neck shape!

[@crsantin]

Great stuff. Where do you have the gain set on the red channel?

[@gtsvl]

Thanks Carlo 🙏 I run the gain on about 3 on the red channel, with no boost. I find its a sweet spot.

[@ciaobello]

How to recording ? Amp setting ?

[@grantmcmichen40]

Sounds great. How did you set the EQ ?

[@gtsvl]

Thanks Grant! On the red channel, Gain: 3, Low: 4, Mid: 5.8, High: 7.1, Vol approx 3. Resonance: 4.3, Presence: 5.4. Power switch full. Burn off.

[@brandonmcvey9511]

How's the tuning stability?

[@gtsvl]

It’s very good, as good as any of my other non floyd guitars

[@brandonmcvey9511]

Thanks for the reply. That's the one thing I was hesitant on to purchase since I can't physically try one before I buy.

[@autowebtechnologies3040]

Bruh!!
