She put the cream in my coffee….put that butter on my biscuit….cherries on bananas. I need a second helping. Erik, that Eddie tone is phenomenal! 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸

Thank you very much!

As others have said, you are the best VH cover artist on youtube. The tone, volume and quality, absolutely top notch. EDIT: Plus you are a Trekkie. What more can I ask for?

[@erik814u2]

I appreciate that!

[@mbajoeski]

Excellent job on the guitar playing. A great riff song to cover. Love that tone. I picked mine up again about 6 months ago. It’s definitely not like riding a bike. Your skill is top notch

dynamite!!!!edward lives on in all his fans!!!

[@erik814u2]

Thank you!

[@jtrutt3]

WHT donyou play this so differently than the version you did a few years ago? I just noticed you are playing the riffs in different positions and fingerings. Did you see videos of EVH playing it or just just refined your take? They both sound good, just wondering?

[@erik814u2]

Never seen Eddie play it. Think I just took a better listen to the track and offered what my ear heard.

[@ericfisher1203]

This song is sooooo much better without Sammy. Awesome playing man

[@erik814u2]

Thank you!

[@ColtraneTaylor]

This is the first time I've _heard_ this riff, I don't know what I was hearing on the song. I like the main riff now, but the song is still a mess.

[@FreytesVH]

Amazing stuff ruined by Sammy Hagar stupid lyrics

[@guitarhero9999]

Hey Erik…How do you get that close sound? Do you use a fractal? Pedals?

[@erik814u2]

Hi. Just pedals and hours, days, months, years of tweaking.
