[@RobertBakerGuitar]

EVH The greatest EVA!!! Great video Tyler

[@JoaoGabriel-lz3wp]

Would love to see a Randy Rhoads habits!

[@hmenom3213]

Rasmus Olsen up

[@zachmcfadden716]

DO IT

[@cheeseplease924]

YES PLEASE

[@dickwhittington7321]

He lays down a lot lately

[@christopherdunn317]

He died to quickly to be noticed

[@fandlpetroleum]

"Fun" pretty much sums up what I love about EVH's playing. While being very technically amazing it's also always soaked with personality and a tongue-in-cheek whimsy about it, which is way harder to achieve than simply shredding...letting yourself come through in the music is something few musicians really pull off.

[@shakebabyhitler]

i agree. I think a lot of Dimebag's earlier stuff had that "whimsy" too. Sounds killer yet fun.

[@wallaceeoliveira]

Kirk Hammett Wah wah wah wah wah wah wah wah and more wah

[@LaLDiscgolf]

Dont forget beast palm muting technique, and if i remember right he would use the phyrigian dominant scale quiet often.

[@WilliamsGoldsmith]

[@petresilegov2581]

Do habits of Taylor swift... oh wait she is the new Eddie Van Halen so bet she has the same habits

[@TheIamseth]

[@MD-tr1yv]

[@alvinwong7175]

[@HafthorBjornssonFan]

RIP Eddie. You were a legend and you always will be. Thank you for what you did for music.

[@gonzalocurras6589]

RIP EDDIE VAN HELEN his work will never be forgotten.

[@hankgalt]

For some VH1 tone stick the phaser in front of the overdrive, add an EP booster and use some plate reverb at the end of the chain instead of delay. Also, be sure to keep phaser and flanger out of the effects loop and in front of your amp 🤘🏻🎸

[@BlueberryStinkFinger62]

Eddie Van Halen = pure legend..pure genius and innovator..the king of kings and Lord of Lords..

[@sleevelessace]

D) All of the Above!

[@TheLocal671]

Habbits of lil wayne

[@kory6313]

Too complex for the human brain to understand.

[@iambarryd]

im interested

[@KnowledgeIsKey215]

Bolt Stevie T did a how to play like lil Wayne...

[@cheeseplease924]

Kory perfect

[@Josh-og9sv]

Bolt Lil Wayne's playing is so unique, full of feel, and extremely technically challenging. Nobody even knows what his habits really are, because when he plays his playing has the ability to wipe all memory from your brain, so you can't even remember what you just heard or saw. Incredible, if you ask me.

[@jumbojet2172]

Habits of Mark Knopfler

[@jumbojet2172]

[@rainerwinkler1026]

Polarizing Totally different generation

[@josephdenino4739]

Habits of John Petrucci please!! Can't believe you haven't done him yet since you're a big fan :)

[@RyanChansler]

The hardest thing for me to nail down when playing Van Halen has always been his shuffle feel. i.e. I'm The One.

[@shakebabyhitler]

Yeah, that's a tough one. Insane "swing" in that boogie riff

[@leetorry]

Habits of Jerry Cantrell, Trey Azagthoth, and Chuck Schuldiner, please?

[@barnabasgyenge7513]

Please Jimmy Page!!!!

[@joshr5132]

Barnabás Gyenge I think he has done it, but I'm not 100% sure. (Edit) I was wrong, he has how to SOUND like him but no habits..

[@DanUtley]

Heroin Cocaine Alcohol Blues guitar techniques he heard somewhere else. The first three led to his playing STYLE, especially live, the last one is how he picked his notes. 😉

That would make the world a better place! Keep doing what you do man. Your contribution to the guitar community worldwide is SO appreciated! Rock on brother 🤟

[@peterdankelson4311]

Habits of angus young! I love his soloing style! Simple yet amazing!

[@THES1NN3R]

Once again I need to make videos don't need lots of gain 2 do artificial tapped harmonics. Think about the tapped chord positions in Dance the Night Away he rolls back the volume knob on his guitar and also the harmonics all correlate to the root note where you tap on the neck. Also pinch harmonics up and down the string think about the intro to the solo of right now

[@leganihanoi]

[@Musesson]

[@spencerwarren9219]

I had that exact guitar loved it. I play a wolfgamg custome antique white now and had it pro relic like Eddie's main guitar of today. Best guitar I have ever know . You should try one. Great video. Love the little Eddie tricks use them. All the time. He was my main influence for last 29 years of playing and use it today in my band.

[@Yeez-T]

Plays an awesome lick 13:07 "Well, like I was saying"

[@jefflien2599]

Just trying to learn how to play lead is tough yu help alot in understanding the techniques again thanks for your lessons!!!

[@dirtstyles]

Eddie is also a great rhythm player as well as awesome at the flashy lead stuff, Panama, Unchained, Drop Dead Legs etc. he wrote many great riffs.

[@cubancoffee3698]

I’m the one is my favorite evh rhythym guitar piece ever

[@ktyther]

...then imagine doing this with his stage presence and showmanship...crazy.

[@jacobmasson5953]

[@bojan9168]

Habits of dime,do it already

[@allenhao_]

habits of marty friedman please!

[@toddpack6301]

Good lord that’s a nice guitar. Good video. RIP EVH

[@DannyGadish]

Habits of Tony Iommi

[@lievliberant6019]

Step 1) Make badass riffs

[@sthn8758]

0:00 3:40 6:54 12:15

[@zerraticz]

Habits of Greg Howe and Habits of Nick Johnston, please! Both of them are insane and in my opinion, severely underrated.

[@bra8623]

Gee, I'm the first I think to suggest the habits of Hendrix. Thanks for the vid dude, this was awesome...

[@Ben-om4yz]

Thank you! The one I've been waiting for

[@DavidNwokoye]

I NEED PEDALS!!!!!

[@CJCJCJCJ]

I was there. Just remember its better to have a couple great ones than several shitty ones. And have an ideal tone in mind.

[@Zergei]

David Nwokoye or do it virtually, but you'd need to buy pressure controlled pedals

[@Pher98]

David Nwokoye get in line bro

[@gregorymacdonnell7914]

Pedals are a must if you want to capture the attitude of a player. If you use Overdrive and bend a note ,it gives much more feel and opens your emotions up.I use a few.A Boss EQ,A EVH phase 90,A Boss Super OD,most of the time. Occasionally some chorus,flange and a wah,seldom however. Most of my tone comes out of my MarshallJVM210 100 watt and a 4x12 slant front cabinet. The tonal varieties of the 9 channel settings are unreal!! Marshall ,in my opinion still is King!! For a Meaty sound David you need SPEAKERS!!!. Pedals are a matter of taste ,as far as what sound you want.

[@discocaden4909]

Honestly just get a high gain amp and a delay, reverb and phaser

[@tylerbaxter5376]

Thanks for these videos! Learning quite a bit with your perspective on these famous guitar players. If I could pick one to do next, I'd certainly pick "Habits of Tony Iommi". The man is an absolute monster.

[@willblaha2236]

we love these videos, keep making em plz!

[@dannyamit6000]

That intro was awesome!!!!!

[@michaeleaster1815]

It's important to note that Eddie's attitude was born out of necessity. He has said that, when young, he couldn't afford effects pedals and so he had to invent "neat noises" to be interesting. (See the Smithsonian interview for more). Also, the over-the-top aspect matched David Lee Roth with echoes of an old-time Vaudeville act. So, I don't think it was ever "I'm Eddie Van Halen" but rather an all-out effort to win over the crowd.

[@BradColemanisHere]

Very cool man. Top notch teaching and playing, as usual!

[@Frest99]

Habits of Buckethead

[@brunocarmo89]

best habits ever. amazing videos.

[@bytrusted7797]

I've been waiting for this :)

[@conradfincher8876]

Hey Tyler I am enrolled in guitar super and I have it download but the courses won't load for some reason I'm on mobile please help with this

[@JulioJustiniano]

Dive bombing the 3rd string is definitely a habit of his. Panama and I'm The One come to mind.

[@b0as_cs]

This is my Happy place, although I can't play guitar, but it's just so satisfiying.

[@hanomag251]

That was awesome!!! Fantastic playing as usual!!!

[@sergej100qca4]

habits of yngwie plz

[@dany3413]

This is a good video, it has good tricks !!! But there is one thing that catches my eye, in a exactly EVH tone, the MXR pedal and flanger are set before the distortion, in essential in the LP VH1 is this one of the settings wich him uses. It is a plexus tone with these pedals on the face of the amplifier and an Echophlex delay in the return transport It is good to remember, Eddie van Halen uses a "Dummy load" inserted into the amplifier, making it possible, to also have more distortion with low volume with the Marshall plexy (eddie don't use a overdrive pedal to make more gain on the Long play of the VH1). Hugs!!!

[@hadjeecovero3516]

vai also did that tapping technique sir! "building the church"

[@cristianconnolly2709]

Then theres other habits like the use of symmetrical "scales"(like in i'm the one, jump, icecream man) and those classic van halen triad chords (unchained, panama). Also the palm muted riffs and of course the amazing rhythmic swing he had.

[@lukaswati9662]

FINALLY! THANKS MAN!

[@nikosmj1]

7:09 u wanna really know who did this first it was Uli Jon Roth back in 74! try to listen Scorpions-Speedys' coming and watch Uli

[@jimmyjennings4089]

I call what Eddie Van Halen did was pulling things out of the neck, anyone that picks up a guitar and tries to play is actually trying to pull sounds out of the neck of the guitar, most people back before Eddie were still working to pull music out of the neck in the conventional way but Eddie pulled things out that peaked everyone's intrest, the things he did were always on the neck but most guitar players never thought to use them, but I believe Eddie was constantly searching for what ever was possibly a useable sound, things other people might have run across and just thought nah that's not how you play guitar, but Eddie along with searching for different sounds out of his amps combined it all and pushed everything to the limits that he could think of, this gave others the idea to experiment with their guitar's to see what they could come up with, I remember before Eddie came out guitar was kind of getting boring and nothing really new sense Hendrix, then all of a sudden out if nowhere Bam along comes Eddie like Steve Via said Eddie not only knocked the door down he crashed through it and splintered it.

[@TommyDoesMusic]

RIP. What a legend

[@markdilley3918]

This was great! Let the metal madness ensue!

[@brycepaubel6825]

Could you do habits of Tommy Emmanuel? I know it would be different for you, but I really enjoy his style and music.

[@xTheSebi96x]

Habits of Mateus Asato would be awesome!

[@jaredpate9760]

Hey Tyler can you do a Zakk Wylde habits video

[@AchillesWrath1]

I know the EVH brand sells wah peddles but I don't think Eddie used a wah peddle that much. What you're mostly hearing is flange. Which in a way does kind of sound like a slow continuous wah peddle.

[@koracing8757]

I would really like to see a habits of Andy LaRocque video. He is probably one of my favorite guitarists and has a very recognizable and distinct style. And it's nice to hear some stuff about guitarists other than just the most mainstream ones every once in awhile ;)

[@neptunesgold1216]

What notes are you holding down at 10:00 when you say that a minor position?? Is it one note at a time or a chord?? Hard to tell from the video anybody??

[@davidalux]

A video showcasing the habits of Jeff Beck would be gnarly

[@MNGuitars]

Sick dude, love the Eddie board too

[@brunobenitez876]

Man Please do Habits of Santana or Clapton

[@ashton3404]

Habit Number 1: BE AWESOME
