Hey Norm , Let Lemo work this one off . He deserves it .

[@SneakyIsDead]

Absolutely

[@rustydodge6167]

AGREE 💯 👍⭐️👍

[@saltyassassin]

That guitar listed for $25,000 in 2007! That’s a lot of duckers to work off

[@SneakyIsDead]

@@saltyassassin :c

[@shawncat65]

I agree!

[@johnp2340]

The rich anonymous dude who bought Ori that rare guitar needs to buy Lemmo this one!!! Anyone that can play Eddie like that deserves his own Frankenstein!!

[@dt891]

the anonymous rich guys just trying to get in Ori's pants

[@mikemorrisonmusic]

Exactly what I was thinking, John!

[@gnawbabygnaw]

A rich not anonymous lady gave Lemmo his dream Jazzmaster last year. But yes. He deserves it.

[@dt891]

I need to find a rich person to buy me free things

[@huntergatherer4223]

There are literally thousands of people who can play like Eddie.

[@jasonw6993]

This kid is so talented it's insane.

[@kjeezy421]

That is Lemmo's guitar. I've never seen someone more deserving of something like that. That should be a pandemic bonus for Michael. Hook him up Norm!

[@Marceloriighiii]

The best Guitar of the day ever, Lemmo should have this guitar, he's the best, cheers !!

[@robsthedon]

He should have it!

[@Abbieabma]

@@robsthedon yeah lets just give him 50K haha

[@henkkman]

@@Abbieabma Susan from SF bought it for him...

[@mustang268]

@@Abbieabma well they just gifted him it haha

[@kylesarafolean6916]

Back in 2007 when I was a teen, we got one of these on special order at my local guitar shop and I was lucky enough that my guitar teacher took me downstairs to the store room to take a look at it before the owner came to pick it up. It was still in the box and he popped it open so we could check it out in person. Still, such a cool experience to have had as a teenager.

[@danamilkyway]

Rest in Peace, Eddie ❤️

[@BrianOboylemusic]

My guy Lemmo loves it so much he wore a matching shirt EVH

[@danielcastrodelamata8873]

I can't believe Susan gifted it to him. Totally deserved though, he plays it magnificently.

[@literallyshaking8019]

She did?

[@lingfengwei7290]

This guitar just fucking sounds better than all others, and the playing is just on fire.

[@jacksonrohr8058]

This needs to be his, no one else can use and appreciate it like that

[@jaumenolla7928]

Nick Diaz is a very kind Gentleman, cheers!

[@ricksnyder4338]

Bro, Lemmo! That was fucking wonderful. As a huge Eddie fan myself for moments I just closed my eyes and listened and just got swept away in the moment. What a beautiful sound, you rock brother. What an awesome guitar.

[@TheNibNerd]

Lemmo channled his inner EVH and loved every minute of playing that guitar.

[@dr.buzzvonjellar8862]

That axe needs to be in Michael’s arsenal! Norm, you know what to do. Michael, you have that EVH swing and feel, which is the most difficult part to develop. A player only gets there with love and practice. Thank you for keeping the flame bright.

[@gooseit]

This video will go down in history. Just crazy VH tone you got out of this.

[@garyhundsrucker7771]

Yeah! I'm sorry but those Wolfy style guitars never did it for me .This is the one beside the other 5150 version!!!

[@michaelmercier7536]

Lemmo put his heart and soul into that, must've been an emotional experience for him. He's an insane player!!!

[@Rambergwest]

Wow in a world where you expect excellence from Michael this is still just another level. I would add God Bless You Michael you add a lot of love to the world

[@ArturBrzozowski444]

Oh my gosh, it's happening!!!

[@LazerSparks]

Well, I'm not sure about anyone else but that almost brought me to tears. Such passion and emotion. I have goose bumps on goose bumps.

[@nickbruni8041]

I love when Jen cusses !!! O , yeah Mike … YOU FUCKEN ROCKED IT !🤘🏼

[@jesusperez-arteaga5437]

Set list: Women in Love… Feel Your Love Tonight Beat It Jaime’s Cryin Romeo Delight Pretty Woman Panama Eruption

[@loudmouthnewyorker2803]

Thanks my man!

[@loudmouthnewyorker2803]

Wish he played Cathedral with all the effects.

[@hardypahardypa1]

Something I observed. On KZbin you have a billion great guitar players searching for Eddie’s tone. You nailed it for the 1982 tour live sound. With this guitar and amp. Boxy brown sound, low distortion, high volume (I suspect). Bravo!!!!!!

[@martinandersson5833]

Michael should have this instrument. Anything else would be a disgrace. You were totally flying there Lemmo! What a pleasure to listen to. Bravo👏👏👏

[@sickb2200]

I don't think I've ever seen anyone other than EVH play Women in Love. Have to admit, it put a lump in my throat. Excellent.

[@robmacmillan7655]

Great job Mike it’s people like you that Eddie will never die. He’s my all time favourite I enjoyed watching you

[@davismusic3674]

You can see , feel and hear Lemmos love and passion for all things EVH here ….my #1 vote for the guitar spot if there’s ever an official tribute to Van Halen ! And yes, he and the guitar have already bonded …I hope some how some way he attains it ….such a talented player 😎

[@EBBCAManagement]

Well done, Michael. We’re all proud and somewhere Eddie is smiling.

[@jacksoneverage7163]

That was Totally Bad Fkn Ass ! As Jen said, He’s gonna fucking rock it. And rock it he did. Great Job Michael Lemmo, that was outstanding my man. Had goosebumps listening to you channel your inner EVH. Nick, always a great guy comes out and says what he said to you. That’s pure class on Nick’s part too. Great Episode, Lemmo needs this in his life.

[@matthewmcswegan7403]

Loved Eddies work. Mikes playing brought tears to my eyes. Awesome job Michael !

[@Bobbyshee]

That’s the best EVH tribute ever Lemmo. Now take that home to be with Godzilla. Cheers

[@smartrn1]

Tremendous. Just tremendous. RIP EVH. Your music will live forever.

[@Garrett9339]

Watching Lemmo fangirl about that EVH guitar and then just noodle EVH riffs for 15 minutes made my day

[@TeriyakiSawce]

I've seen so many EVH tributes... but this was was the most incredible... keep it up Lemmo... we love you and the team❤

[@wildbilljr3369]

rest in peace Eddie that one was for you. I'm sure you felt that one. >>>---->

[@thefenian32]

I have never seen any of the guitarists on here get lost playing like Lemmo just did. It reminds me of that kid in his bedroom just playing his heroes riffs out of pure love for the music and the instrument. Get someone to give the man the guitar!! Awesome work Michael Lemmo!

[@CL8ON6]

The end of this video is so damn heartwarming and wholesome. 🙏

[@bartmccoy5111]

Nick had tears in his eyes after Lemo played I must confess so did I It was a spiritual

[@MrBrianscott17]

The passion and love in this video was incredible

[@MrChadcolwell]

Wow. Just wow. Wolfgang Van Halen needs to see this.

[@ronmiller1162]

how in the hell did you learn anything else , getting so well rounded at playing Eddies stuff and to tell you the truth i know how good you are with playing VH that i closed my eyes the hole time you played that rendition of VH snipits , there is not anyone walking the face of earth that could pull off what you just did and sound that correct thank you LEMMO

[@gerrynelson9787]

At the end I applauded the screen. Best ever Guitar of the day. A confluence of talent. RIP Ed. Keep rocking Lemmo. I’ll chip in on the crowdfund for Lemmo’s guitar.

[@rexminard4124]

Great job Michael. I can see how much you respected Van Halen, playing the Fender Frankenstein. I think that was the best guitar playing you have ever done on Guitar of the Day....Thank You for letting us hear and see you play that GREAT guitar........

[@mbreinin]

I like how Mike puts his own spin on the EVH classics. No perfect, note for note covers. Fun to watch.

[@musicfan8253]

Not gonna lie, this one made me cry. I don’t have much money but I would donate what I could to make sure Michael gets this guitar. Others have already mentioned a “go fund me” or the like. If it happens, please post so I can contribute.

[@stes3061]

I will donate 3000 soy plantss

[@nfshotrod]

Sts don’t be a stooge. Michael lives rent free in your head.

[@manbearpig2164]

I teared up a little too

[@abbaeben6409]

Inspirational. You just honored and paid an amazing tribute to Eddie, way to go Lemmo!

[@huwalmighty]

That was an absolutely fantastic tribute to the King. The tone was perfect and you played the riffs with such detail

[@davef335]

That was incredible, and a super touching acknowledgment from Nick as well. Lemmo, I hope this guitar ends up with you forever

[@AGTsakumis]

That was an absolute privilege to watch. I'll be calling about that guitar on Monday.

[@Lutzilla_]

Eddie keeps smiling from above..for me, the most emotionally episode by Norms..THANK YOU MICHAEL! :-)

[@dorianponcela9680]

One of the best Guitar of the Day I've seen. Lemmo is a monster player!

[@davidg4300]

I think Nick said it all. Thanks for doing that Nick, it was the perfect ending to a great performance! Mike, you never cease to amaze me. Excellent work as always Jen!!

@@matthewmp111 thats all life is in capitalist society. however you can choose to do it for yourself or others.

[@CraigChurcher]

I'm almost certain that a part of Lemmo's soul is in this guitar! He has to have it!

[@section2377]

no offense, but if you can play it and appreciate like this, it should be yours

[@jope3069]

he'd definitely deserve it

[@pissonguitarcenter8204]

why not build your own ?

[@mrdon01234]

Totally agree. Norm - give that kid the guitar.

we need Susan to come in clutch

[@joemsm4313]

these go for 25-40k. he won't make that much this year.

[@docskate4312]

This made me tear up. A very special moment at Norm's indeed. Thanks Lemmo.

[@michaelhotz7118]

Simply amazing!!! I agree, You need and deserve that guitar.

[@vadwanuu7825]

Lemo KILLED it!!! My jaw is on the floor!! F’n incredible!!!

[@georgemoore7231]

Wow! Simply amazing. Just about the time Michael makes me think he is the most fantastic guitar player on the planet, he performs an even more masterful display of craftsmanship like his performance on that Van Halen Custom Shop guitar.

[@Sword-Shield]

In Memory of Eddie V...Outstanding Job M.L. Toe it up !

[@plumiegirl47]

Just make forever payments on it…… he is in the zone and it sounds amazing!!! We might get the whole LP! Ok everyone has to donate money to help Lemmo get this guitar! We need a go fund me for Lemmo and this guitar!!!

[@rotceridjc]

Michael never ceases to amaze me.

[@imreh5588]

Michael, Eddie meens the world to me. I had and emotional reaction to the playing you just gave all of us. I agree he would have totally dug your performance.

[@Ruby9able]

Michael, your medley was seamless and brought me to tears by the end. I am a big VH fan as well, and love that NRG had this guitar pass through; so it can be seen and heard in the most perfect way.

[@cosmicrancher2169]

ML cleared my soul today.

[@woopa66]

Dude! That was friggin awesome! Thank you for your inspiration Michael!

[@FunkRockGroove]

Cool video again. Appreciate the Norm’s channel and the effort they put in. Thank you guys

[@pauliezx5134]

Outstanding guitar, playing, tone, amp, shirt. Wow!

[@Chavano]

My absolute favorite song

[@chubbydickschopshop]

Absolutely fantastic!

[@robinmorris5416]

Dude, you scored 9 brown sounds outta 10!! Norm would probably give you that guitar but last I heard they were north of 40 grand. They were like 25 grand when they came out, and King Edward was still alive and reigning. And even in death, he still reigns, forever King.

[@richardleerodgers5303]

Outstanding Michael you can see by your passion you lived Eddie's music as many of of did.

[@bartmccoy5111]

OMG LEMO! ! That was WAY OVER THE TOP! Unbelievable talent!

[@autogpx2867]

Didn't want this to end.

I am back in 78, 79, 80, 81. Lemmon is spot on. What's amazing in his brain is 3 seconds faster then his hands. Outstanding memory chip, those tones, links are spot on. Wow!

[@LimitWHK]

This was badass . Lemmo deserves one of these for sure

[@oilycanvas8374]

Lemmo, you’re an original. I can see how you’ve digested all of this stuff and made it your own. Very very difficult to do, but you got it dude!
