Perhaps the most exciting crossover I've ever seen

[@wwland]

Seeing his rig still set up in that studio brought me to tears.

[@e.l.norton]

Ed's still gifting us tone nuggets of gold. Pretty amazing that he wanted to do this when he did. God bless Ed, and thanks to Matt, Yoshi, and everyone else who helped realize this.

[@michaeldavis9596]

Amen

[@RonynLoneWolf]

The clips of 5150 Studios had me tearing up. Ed is missed big time. Great job guys on the pedal! 👍✌️

[@markharley99]

Serious levels of goosebumps. An amazing story, amazing products, amazing people ! BOSS & EVH , i feel like a kid on Christmas morning !

[@hollylewis5302]

Pete Thorn! Your playing throughout this promo is STELLAR! Amazing piece of music that emulates Eddie to a Tee! I don't even play guitar and I'm all weepy and excited about this pedal and the encapsulation of the EVH tone in a box! So many guitar players are going to over the moon! Thanks to all who were involved in bringing to fruition one of Edward's dreams! I'm sure there are more to come. ❤🤍🖤🎸👑

[@PeteThorn]

Thanks Holly! 🙏

[@OeHomestead]

Wow! Just wow! That's so awesome and it's really great seeing Pete Thorn involved in the development of the product. And not to mention the music he made for the video. The spirit of Eddie lives on.

[@PeteThorn]

🙏🤘🎸

[@Rob-dp3vr]

I'm still shocked Eddie is gone. Every now and then I am reminded, and it's still hard to believe. I kept hearing the music for this video leaning in to "Me Wise Magic". A fantastic song and amazing guitar tone.

[@steveg219]

This is the Golden Age for guitar players effects!! The dedication and skill that went into this, and the results, are truly a dream come true!!

[@mollirodhaet7224]

Keep dreaming.

[@steveg219]

@@mollirodhaet7224 what does that mean? I used the SDE delays in the 80s, you couldn’t do all of these features back then.

[@jimnicholas7666]

Pete’s playing is killer…as always. Loving the studio scenes!

[@shorerocks]

BOSS were always smart. And always delivered. Including Pete Thorn is a clever move.

[@RikkShredLifestyle]

I've only been waiting for EVER...for this SDE3000 to be in pedal format?? BOSS and EVH UNITE!!! WICKED!!!

[@eanroad]

Fantastic job Boss, EVH, PT and teams on developing this awesome product!

[@viewoftheaskew]

Ed would be very proud of all you guys, well done!

Thanks Boss / Roland ! I admire your work! Much love from Argentina!

[@JohnnyBeane]

Awesome inside 5150 studio footage!!!

[@GuitarLen75]

Cool to see Matt in an interview. He should do much more. He is a witness to guitar history.

OMG😮😮😮😮 they got to go in the 5150 Studio😮😮😮😮 should be a museum!!!!

[@5150show]

Absolutely incredible ❤

[@tmitz73]

Way to go Boss, EVH, and the incredible Pete Thorn!!

[@crsantin]

Amazing stuff. Great seeing 5150 even if it’s kind of sad without Eddie there. I’ll be buying this unit at some point. Time to move some gear out the door.

[@turdferguson290]

yeah and Alex's drums replaced now with Wofie's stuff...time moves on.

[@billyc6678]

I pre-ordered this from Sweetwater as soon as I saw this video. Unfortunately, it’s not available till late June early July. This one unit will do everything I’ve always wanted with my rig. Can’t wait!!! Thank u EVH, BOSS 🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽

[@steveburchfield5576]

😈

the SDE-1000 I have, I've had since my teens. The only piece of equipment to survive my crazy life. I'm stoked to see it in the sunlight like this. Definitely buying this yesterday.

Huh? This is modelled after the 3000!

[@msydski3676]

@@jamescassidy4045 I know! They are very similar.

A win win for EVH Gear… now everybody needs 3 amps. 😂

[@pierozucca172]

Incredible guitar sound for this video !!!!!! Bye from Belgium !

[@BAND-MAID-USA]

I’ll never accept that Eddie is gone. Probably the biggest loss in music history. Not just music, but also his inventions. I wish he could come back.

[@nogoogleplus]

I’m beyond psyched, amazing job guys!!

[@AndresFargoMusic]

What an acheivement!! sooo great

[@ZackSeifMusic]

Collaborations are the future. Use each other's strengths to create the best product you can. Loved this mini-documentary and can't wait to see this unit in action!

[@mike42441]

Eddie would be extremely proud of this masterpiece !!

[@ericirwin413]

Hellyeah this is the kind of delay pedal I've been looking for!!

[@mathieudouis8944]

Thx a lot for making this happens BOSS !!! I was waiting for it!! So happy 😊

[@UNSC-ow3bh]

Play the VH live at the Tokyo Dome album and that massive delay is heard plenty of times and I dare say he was the only one who did it that way...Completely owned that! Awesome new product for the masses!!!

[@JeremyWhiteShow]

Need one like yesterday!!! 😮😮🔥🔥

[@frankie.d1127]

Killer track Pete!!! Thank you!!

[@planzed.2]

Amazeballs🔥🔥🔥!! What an awesome collaboration & pedal, great to see Yoshi still presenting & advising 😎

[@oliviercognaux_official]

thanks for this ! awesome

[@64north20west]

Pete Thorns playing through this new gear is the best effort possible at this point in time to hand something to the next generation to keep Eddie's sound and spirit around in the future.

Good job Guys, excellent build!

[@rmzzz76]

Cool product and a great tribute.

[@natashanyxx9486]

Sounds amazing!

[@joevinil7943]

Nice production, nice imagine, nice sounds and a incredible history, greetings from Brazil ❤

[@plexidust5101]

Fantastic Job, Awesome to see YOSHI on the Project. Love him. However, can you please include in firmware update 1 the addition of FINE CONTROL of the Delay Time for the first 20 Milliseconds. For Example from 0 to 1 millisecond we need FINE CONTROL . IE . . .1, . 2, . 3, etc . 1.1, 1.2 , 1.3 etc . 2.1, 2.2, 2.3 and so on. THIS, is what will make this pedal an incredible pedal. Ed spent the first ten years with ONE of his TWO Echoplexes in this manor . One super short, the other longer. A HUGE THANK YOU For Your Consideration.

[@JimmyGallowayGuitar]

Pete Thorn is rippin on this..... Mercy

[@michaelpalermo354]

Hard to believe we are living in a world where we are talking about Eddie Van Halen in the past tense. 😢 This new pedal seems to be all the rage right now. So glad to see the growth of his legacy! Nice job guys!

Evh forever!! Getting reb beach vibes from Pete’s playing here! Throughly enjoyed this 🤘🏻

Instant pre order 🤘

[@absinha6209]

So damn cool!

[@gstmusic69]

I had this baby pre-ordered the first day . This will be the ultimate delay for me above the DD-500.

[@TVoltG]

This is exciting..I am working on a mono wet dry rig but I have an extra cab and head to do this three cab stereo rig. Gotta try it. Sweet!

ありがとう!

[@ORicardoNogueira]

Some processing to the dry signal would be nice. Great gear!

[@Bilsuburbians]

Yep, its cool. Now, Please BOSS / Yoshi, Make a collaboration for Official EVH 5150 Amp Modeller in digital pedal form that can choose any EVH amp models. ❤

[@Rob-dp3vr]

And have buttons labeled "Fair Warning", or "Girl Gone Bad". One click and all modeling factors bring you to that exact sound.

[@keithyoung4358]

Omg I need another pedal and a third amp 🤟🏻

[@michaeldavis9596]

Me too!!! I mean me 3!!!!!

[@paolomaestri2179]

It is all amazing and incredible. Wonderful pedal and exceptional features, what an unique way to carry on the legacy of the Mozart of Rock N' Roll. My question is: where is Wolfgang Van Halen? Has he been involved into this project?

[@themojo6291]

Great Pete Thorn,,,,,,,,,I mean, Eddie video!

[@kimsehwang]

💯❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@stevenausten9935]

Well, time to get out the old excuse book and and find a new one to tell the wife…. I must have this 😂😂👍👍🎸

[@Rob-dp3vr]

Always remember the pre-purchase set up. I took my wife to buy her a new car. Hers was only 3 years old, but the new model had much more in cool features. Because I already knew I was in the market for another classic hot rod and already had 5 cars.

[@marcuscurtismusic]

This looks great. I already have a Boss GT-1000, Roland GR-55, and a Boss SY-1000. What exactly will this bring in addition to those units? What can it do that those other units cannot do? Checked the pre-order price and it is very reasonable. Looking forward to testing one.

[@armandodiaz3485]

Any chance you could do a demo video highlighting the built gating/noise reduction in use with the 4-cable method? I haven’t seen anything online that touches this subject besides mentioning it’s included.

[@mastropaulo]

EU QUEROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[@DRFHM]

COME ON EVH; just sounds like a hyped up gt-8 boss delay to me.

[@DRFHM]

Make it more delay than the internet EVH. Boss is nothing but digital. Make it 3x better to make it worth good beer 💰.

[@Jonathan_Doe_]

Looks like an amazing concept and product… Ground lift and phase switches on all the outputs would’ve been better than *ground lift patch cables* though.

[@Andyanddiana467]

Yeah - already I envision one of these cables getting lost or damaged on a gig.

[@phaskellhall]

@@Andyanddiana467 how do these work exactly and why would we all still need things like the Radial boxes if a patch cable this simple could have worked all along? It has me a bit skeptical.

[@Andyanddiana467]

@@phaskellhall The cables are likely wired with the ground/sleeve wires detached. As for Radial boxes - those would be to balance the signal (i.e., use a transformer to create an XLR feed). I'm grossly oversimplifying this, but that's the general idea.

[@phaskellhall]

@@Andyanddiana467 I've never used a radial for that purpose. My radial box allows me to plug in one input and output to two different amps and lift the ground that causes the loop. I'd assume you could have 3 outputs for 3 amps but then you need something to give the WDW stereo effect. In the end I've moved over to a Quad Cortex and OMG does it make all this routing stuff so much easier.

[@dunbarcustomsound]

WHAAAAAAAAAAT!

[@dennisellis968]

Johnny Beane love Delay.

[@JohnnyBeane]

Thank you so much! It's true!

[@ernielamprell4532]

Do the new Sd3000 models enable low cut to be applied to the echoes, as was in the original Meazzi and Long Tom echoes? If the only variable is high cut, then this is the same as most modern delay fx in respect of echoes.

[@dave21502]

I would love to see Roland/Boss make a compact stomp box version, and have a switch that automatically gives you the Cathedral delay. Like the MXR evh flanger, push a button and you have his Unchained setting!

[@DrummerB712]

Ed used the Lexicon PCM-70 for Cathedral delay in his rig not the SDE-3000’s

[@bls8959]

@@DrummerB712 He didn't say that

[@Mickey69745]

Except that Ed did not come up with the idea for wet dry wet. That came from Bob Bradshaw

[@robertm6820]

I have a photo of EVH’s rack with the SDE 3000’s from the 1993 tour… I think he had 3 of them…

[@viniciusmarcilio3194]

09:46 wow, that's interesting. Does boss sell these individually?

[@FlyingSquirrelTony]

Does it have spillover when the bypass switch is pushed?
