Hello GMC and welcome to my lesson in the Style of Eddie Van Halen!

I tried to combine many aspects of his playing, not only lead stuff. There is some riffing as well, open chords that Eddie plays quite often.

Speaking of lead part I mixed many things, from his tapping licks, legato, use of whammy bar and up to his really unique tremolo picking. Plus I added a few natural and tapped harmonics, just to get the whole picture. :)

The tune is kind of a hard rocking feel, the tempo is 120 bpm. Scale wise, I used D major scale and D Mixolydian as well.

Hope you're gonna like it and have fun!
