Hello guys! We've lost one of the biggest guitarists of all time: EDDIE VAN HALEN.

This collab is to make some music in his honor and to thank him for all the inspiration that he gave us. Eddie changed Guitar Playing forever.



Our dear GMCer Adam gave us the cool idea to start this tribute collab so here we are!

I've prepared 2 backings taken from https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/EVH-Made-Easy/. You can choose one or play over both backings.

Backing 1:  EVH_Tribute_backing_1___95_bpm.mp3 ( 651.68K ) : 287


Backing 2:  EVH_Tribute_backing_2___95_bpm.mp3 ( 563.03K ) : 270


Scale suggestions:

Over the first backing, the best you can play is E minor pentatonic, E blues scale, and also add some chromatic notes.

http://www.guitarmasterclass.net/scalegenerator

The second backing starts in E major (from 00:00 to 00:12) and then modulates to E minor (from 00:12 to end).

DEADLINE: October 25th EDIT: New deadline: November 1st

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Oct 9 2020, 01:34 PM

Oh yes!!! This rocks!! Great energy!!!!

Posted by: Adam Oct 9 2020, 07:42 PM

I'm getting back into Collab thingy. I was going to join Gab's call and response one but I was late, so let me make up for that just now!

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Oct 9 2020, 07:51 PM

Oh! I'm sorry to see that you missed that collab!! You are welcome to this one (It was your idea!). Can't wait for your take!!

Posted by: Adam Oct 9 2020, 08:39 PM

I'm going to push myself real hard and hopefully post a worthy take. With that said, I'll most likely post mine a few days before the deadline. I'd ask for some guidance in our Mentoring Thread, if that's okay. I'll explain my ideas in there.

I'm going all-out in this Collab and I hope it'll be worth waiting for.

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Oct 9 2020, 08:51 PM

Sure! Great plan. Let's work at the mentoring thread!

Posted by: MisterM Oct 11 2020, 11:03 AM

Hi

Kris your take is just amazing !

I would listen to the rec but I would not participate, I leave the place to the shredder

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Oct 11 2020, 11:28 AM

Big thanks Misterm and Gab 🙏❤️

MisterM you can do it, trying new ground can lead to huge threshold experiences. You are ready for it!!

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Oct 11 2020, 03:55 PM

It's not only for shredders! Add your own style here mate!

Posted by: Caelumamittendum Oct 11 2020, 04:26 PM

Is this a video collab or audio only?

Did a video anyway:

Posted by: Phil66 Oct 11 2020, 08:36 PM

First ideas, any advice on playing, tone etc gratefully received.

Thanks

Posted by: MisterM Oct 12 2020, 05:54 AM

HI Gab, Kris
This morning I tried to play, it's ok - I'm in

Cael
Very nice REC

Phil
Good tone and good idea

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Oct 12 2020, 02:57 PM

That's very cool Cael!! Great melodies and lines! I like your phasy tone too. Thanks for your take mate!


YES, THIS IS AN AUDIO/VIDEO COLLAB!





Hi Phil! You tone sounds great over this backing, and your take is also cool! I think that this one can work for the collab. The only thing that I would change is the ending... I would add some doble string ascending bends there to give it a more dramatic ending. But it's just a subjective opinion.




Awesome!!! I'm glad to know it MisterM!

Posted by: Phil66 Oct 12 2020, 03:07 PM

Thanks buddy




Thanks Gab, I'll try to find out how to do those. Cheers

Posted by: Todd Simpson Oct 12 2020, 06:47 PM

Cool take Phil and Ben!!! PHIL, gabe is just saying that a "big finish" is a good way to wrap up a solo. He's right of course You can use any technique you want. E.G. Add a harmony, do a tapping bit, etc. So that the solo "builds" to a crescendo. I sometimes use a burst of speed, or pinch harmonic, etc. at the end as a sort of exclamation point, as it were, at the end of a musical sentence

Todd

Posted by: Victor Simion Oct 12 2020, 08:05 PM

Hi,

This is my first time joining a Collab,


I am planning on recording a video also, but this take is just to get some advice.

Posted by: Phil66 Oct 12 2020, 09:04 PM

Thanks Todd,

I've been thinking of using the whammy pedal. I want to do much more than what I do here but this is an idea. It was very rushed as I had to speak to my insurance for over an hour about that accident I had,

https://youtu.be/z1vxyhSEhLM

Posted by: Todd Simpson Oct 12 2020, 09:59 PM

Better!! It builds to the ending which is a good idea in a solo. Also, as this is an EVH tribute, a bit of tapping does seem appropriate The first blues/box pattern you play, can you wag the vibrato a pinch more? I'm not sure if this will work given your recent issues that made playing or raising your arms difficult. I'd just like to see more drama in the vibrato, EVH often made use of exaggerated vibrato, so it seems fitting

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Oct 12 2020, 10:30 PM

Hi Victor! Congrats on your first collab!!!

I can say that this is a cool solo! I don't notice things to improve here. Everything sounds good here. If you ask me, my less favorite parts are:

- 00:14 : It sounds a bit out of tune or dissonant here. I would make a variation there to give the phrases a different ending compared to the previous one in the lower octave.
- 00:21: It's cool to add a bend there but I would try another note.
- 00:24: I also think that the note choices here are note the best one.

The key is that you try to use mostly E minor pentatonic instead or E minor during the riffing section.






Awesome! I like it much more now with that ending! One question, did you add those black lines to your guitar for this collab??

Posted by: Phil66 Oct 13 2020, 07:28 AM

Thanks Todd,

Yeah I need to work on my wide vibrato, not just the technique but also re-strengthening the muscles that do it. I've always struggled with wide vibrato and it's that bit more difficult now. One of the things is that it never feels like there is enough time to fit it in if that makes sense.

Cheers



Thanks Gab,

Yeah I added those lines purely for the collab, it came out quite well I think considering it only took five minutes

Cheers.

Phil

Wou!! Those are killer solos MisterM!! It's cool to see how all your hard work with GMC collabs is showing killer improvements in your own solos. Congrats and thanks!!

Posted by: Victor Simion Oct 13 2020, 06:21 PM

Hi,

Thank you Gabriel for the feedback.

I tried another take.

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Oct 13 2020, 07:10 PM

Nice! Much better! The only issue that I hear here is the note at 00:36, which is C while A major is sounding in the backing. The correct note there would be C# that is part of the chord (it's major third). The minor third sounds out.

Posted by: Phil66 Oct 13 2020, 09:01 PM

Okay, this is going to have to be my final take, I've worn out my tapping finger on my right hand, it's not used to doing so much

I can give it another go if you really want to, excuse the mad face towards the end

By the way, nice take MisterM.

I was planning on re-joining the collabs gang, but I'm staying clear of this one

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Oct 14 2020, 12:13 PM

You can do it mate! There is no need to go fancy, Eddie also had a super melodic side. Jam around and see if you can come up with something that sounds like it could be sung - then you know you have a good melodic lead going.

Posted by: Phil66 Oct 14 2020, 12:33 PM

Come on buddy have a go, if I can do it you certainly can.

Go on pwetty pwease

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Oct 14 2020, 02:19 PM

Add your own style here! It would be GREAT!

Posted by: Victor Simion Oct 14 2020, 08:46 PM

Hi,

This is my take.

Let me know if it's ok.

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Oct 14 2020, 11:52 PM

hehehe great one Phil!!! I love that Dime style ending!! Thanks a lot for you take my friend!




Excellent!! You fixed that note!! This sounds epic Victor!! I'm so happy. This collab will be a monster one!

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Oct 21 2020, 06:26 PM

Any more takes? 🤗

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Oct 21 2020, 06:59 PM

I'm working on mine!!!

Who else is working? 5 days to deadline!

Posted by: Todd Simpson Oct 22 2020, 02:21 AM

Working on mine too!

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Oct 22 2020, 02:09 PM

Cool!!

Posted by: Steve Gilfield Oct 22 2020, 05:22 PM

Apologies for being late to the Eddie tribute.
Here is my take on the ballad backing track.
Can't wait to hear how everyone played!

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Oct 22 2020, 08:36 PM

That's very nice Steve!! Thanks for your take!!

Posted by: Adam Oct 25 2020, 07:21 PM

Life situation forced me to take a break and I missed the bluesy thingy but I'm going for the EVH collab as soon as I plug in.

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Oct 25 2020, 07:25 PM

No problem mate! We can extend the deadline!

Posted by: Adam Oct 25 2020, 09:29 PM

Thank you! Could I get two/three more days? I'm still trying to get the general idea of the style and I'm not sure I can do it in 1 day.

Posted by: tflava Oct 26 2020, 10:34 AM

Hello guys,

This is my first idea.
I think i'll work this one out.



Greetz

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Oct 26 2020, 01:59 PM

Yes!! Take your time to polish it mate!




Cool!! I can hear EVH everywhere in this solo! It's a very nice tribute my friend!! Take your time to polish the tricky passages and then please share all your files for the final mix and vid.

THANKS!!!

As we have many takes coming let's set a new deadline so everybody can join!

NEW DEADLINE: NOVEMBER 1st

Posted by: tflava Oct 26 2020, 09:08 PM

Ok thanks man. I will practice the Licks and polis it and then record it. Thanks man

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Oct 27 2020, 03:33 PM

Excellent!!

Posted by: Adam Oct 27 2020, 05:20 PM

Having seen everyone's take, I feel like dropping the mic (or the guitar, in this case). I'm nowhere near that level. My competitive side wants me to at least try and that I'll do.

Posted by: Todd Simpson Oct 28 2020, 02:44 AM

That's all anyone can ever ask of themselves

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Oct 28 2020, 03:17 PM

Go for it mate!!!!

Posted by: tflava Oct 29 2020, 12:08 PM

Hello guys,

Here is my take.
I had only one problem because with my best last take my recorder was full so i used the video of my take before.
it is almost identical. So my apologies for it.

I want to send the files but i cant send them. Can i share it we transfer and so yes to which email?

Thanks in advance.



Greetz Tim

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Oct 29 2020, 02:23 PM

Killer take mate!! Great vid, tone and playing!! No problem with the video.

You can send the files to [email protected]

Thanks a lot!!

Posted by: tflava Oct 29 2020, 03:09 PM

Thanks man.
I just sended it with wetransfer.

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Oct 29 2020, 07:38 PM

Got them! Thanks!!

Posted by: Adam Nov 1 2020, 08:34 PM

It's something different than what I wanted to do but I hope it's okay!

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Nov 2 2020, 01:54 AM

It sounds cool Adam! Thanks for your take friend!

Is there any other take coming?

Posted by: Todd Simpson Nov 2 2020, 07:17 AM

Very spiff backing. I took the slower one so I could get a tappy!

Great taping melody Todd

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Nov 2 2020, 07:31 PM

Is there any new take coming guys??

Posted by: Todd Simpson Nov 3 2020, 11:24 PM

Thanks guys! i'm using the left hand wide spacing thing that EVH used in Hot for Teacher but just in a different way with more right hand note variation. I thought it would make a fitting tribute. I've borrowed so much from EVH that it's hard to play a solo without giving him an homage His influence lives on.

PS: Using overloud THU to get a roughly 'EVH" tone and using the SPX90 rack unit in that patch to give it the 80s chorus vibe. Love that spx90. I've wanted one for years and now it's part of my fave plugin suite. The dude from BIG HAIRY GUITARS got overloud to add it! God bless him.

Todd

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Nov 5 2020, 08:54 PM

Ok guys!! It's time to start mixing this one... if you are planning to record a take for this one please let me know.

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Nov 6 2020, 08:05 PM

Hi MisterM! I've noticed that both "Guitar only" links take me to part 2 of your solo. Could you please upload the file directly here at the forum? Thanks!!




Hi Phil! I don't have your only guitar take. Both files are with mix.

Posted by: Phil66 Nov 6 2020, 09:44 PM

I've rectified my post now Gab, sorry about that, I've also replied to you PM with some news for you.

I still have to adjust some mixing details but please check it out and let me know what you think!

Also, check if all takes are correctly synchronized with the backing.

Sounds great to me buddy, maybe a little hiccup when my bit comes in, hard to say.

Cheers

Phil

Posted by: tflava Nov 9 2020, 10:31 PM

It sounds real nice man.

Greetz

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Nov 10 2020, 04:24 AM

What do you exactly mean by hiccup?





Thanks for checking!!

Posted by: Phil66 Nov 10 2020, 08:31 AM

Sorry buddy, it's an English term with multiple meanings, obviously you will have had hiccups (hipo in Spanish) at some point in your life but in this instance, it means "glitch", or something not quite right. Maybe it's my ears, or that I was very tired but the transition from the previous take to mine doesn't sound smooth. If it sounds good to you then I'll bow to your experience

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Nov 10 2020, 01:19 PM

Now it makes sense! Thanks for clarifying. I'll check that transition. Thanks a lot for checking!!

Posted by: Todd Simpson Nov 10 2020, 01:49 PM

Congrats on putting this together! Sounds really good so far.

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Nov 11 2020, 12:48 AM

Thanks mate! I'm still polishing the mix, and working on the vid!

Ok friends!! I think that this is the most emotive GMC collab ever. Thanks everybody for joining. I love the final track, I hope you enjoy it as much as me.

Thanks for the inspiration EDDIE!!

Posted by: Todd Simpson Nov 12 2020, 02:41 AM

Super Job on this everyone!! One of the best ever!! a fitting tribute to the legend himself. EVH.

Posted by: MisterM Nov 12 2020, 08:14 AM

Very nice Collab

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Nov 12 2020, 08:32 AM

YEAH!!! Well done everybody 😎👌👌👌

Posted by: tflava Nov 12 2020, 08:39 AM

Very cool 😎
And real nice done with the intro and pieces of evh playing.
Im glad to participate to this again 😁

Posted by: Steve Gilfield Nov 12 2020, 10:02 AM

Great work Gabriel and everybody!

Posted by: Phil66 Nov 12 2020, 01:46 PM

Best collab ever, well done everyone. Thank you Gab for doing a superb job as usual, just wondering why you took the squeal out at the end of my piece. Not complaing buddy, I'd just like to understand after you said it needed a more exciting ending and you said you loved the "Dime" ending

Cheers.

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Nov 12 2020, 03:11 PM

Thanks guys!!! I'm glad to know that you liked it!!!

Oh! I've missed that part. It wasn't intentional to delete the end of your soloing. I dedicated the first day to find the best way to connect all parts (the main problem was that we had much more "chorus" takes than "verse" takes) and for any reason I missed that part from your take.

You can miss something when working on this kind of monster audio and video projects. That's why I shared the pre mix to ask everybody if everything was ok. You should have told me there!

Posted by: Phil66 Nov 12 2020, 03:25 PM

Sorry buddy, I only listened to my bit for a few seconds as I've heard it that many times, I skipped through to listen to everyone else. I guess subconsciously I never expected anything to be changed on the guitar part. I don't know what happened though, you didn't delete the end, there is still a note there and you can hear the slide down the neck at the very end but not the whammy pedal pitch increase. I'm only listening on my phone's built in speaker though so maybe it's not quite what I think.

Never mind, I fully understand how big these projects are mate and really appreciate your time and skill doing them. Its still a great collab.

Thanks buddy.

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Nov 12 2020, 03:38 PM

Thanks mate! I'll re-open the project to check what happened. I'm curious now.

Posted by: klasaine Nov 12 2020, 09:23 PM

That was really great everybody. Good work!

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Nov 13 2020, 10:11 AM

So...the question is what should we do next?? 😁

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Nov 13 2020, 01:20 PM

heheh yeah, that's a very good question. The bar is very high now.

Posted by: Phil66 Nov 13 2020, 08:43 PM

It was my fault Gab, in Reaper, (maybe in other DAWs too), you have to have your guitar track and another track routed through it with the MIDI information. When you record you have to have both tracks, guitar and MIDI set to record. When I rendered the track I muted all channels except for the guitar track which caused the midi signal to not work so the whammy effect didn't happen.

I guess it's too late to drop it into the video but it's there if you want to and it isn't too much of a ball ache. It was my mistake but at least I've learnt something and understand Reaper a little bit more now

Tough act to follow! Any ideas guys?

Posted by: Caelumamittendum Nov 14 2020, 01:31 PM

Well done, everyone!

As for ideas for the next one, just brain storming here: Led Zeppelin style?

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Nov 14 2020, 06:09 PM

Oh now it makes sense!! I've checked my project and I didn't omit anything from your take! so this explains what happened.




Any backing or song in mind?




I missed this question! Sorry Todd. I'm using Adobe Premiere.

Posted by: Steve Gilfield Nov 14 2020, 07:37 PM

How about this one?

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Nov 15 2020, 01:45 PM

Nice vibes! In this style we have these two backings...

https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Slow-Blues-Phrasing/

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Nov 15 2020, 06:36 PM

Yeah, both of these are very cool.

I especially like the first one, I did an improv lesson based on it: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Jam-School-Motivic-Development/

Let's see what people think!

Posted by: Steve Gilfield Nov 15 2020, 09:15 PM

Oh does it have to be a backing track from guitarmastercalss?

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Nov 15 2020, 09:18 PM

Due to copyright issues it's the best option.

Posted by: Todd Simpson Nov 16 2020, 02:54 AM

I like the first one as well! Kris gave a great play through!

Posted by: Steve Gilfield Nov 16 2020, 09:20 AM

Oh ok fair enough.

Then from those two backing tracks you mentioned, I like the second which is more bluesy.

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Nov 16 2020, 01:06 PM

We can also give it some more time any see if we get any other inspiration.

Maybe could use a student backing track as a starting point?

Posted by: Caelumamittendum Nov 16 2020, 02:03 PM

Not that it has to be anything like what I suggested, but I suggested a Led Zeppelin style on the last page. Just thought I'd chime in with that again.

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Nov 16 2020, 02:37 PM

Any backing in mind?




By now we have:

- Led Zeppelin Style: 1 vote
- John Mayer Slap backing: 1 vote
- Slow Blues Phrasing: 1 vote

Posted by: Caelumamittendum Nov 16 2020, 03:42 PM

I'll have to look, but there are quite a few Led Zeppelin lessons. Let me check for a bit

Posted by: tflava Nov 16 2020, 06:35 PM

Ill have to say that i also like the blues track.
But to be honest i see them all as a challenge so ut doesnt matter 😁

Posted by: Phil66 Nov 17 2020, 01:57 PM

I'll just leave this here as the final tribute.
Peace.

No matter what the distance is you’ll be okay

I’m so tired
Can’t see your face
My memory of you
Slowly fades when I go on
I’m still cryin’
Don’t want this place
A world without you
I don’t think I’ll ever move on

No matter what the distance is I will be with you
No matter what the distance is I will be with you
No matter what the distance is I will be with you
No matter what the distance is you’ll be okay

No matter what the distance is I will be with you
No matter what the distance is I will be with you
No matter what the distance is I will be with you
No matter what the distance is you’ll be okay

No matter what the distance is I will be with you
No matter what the distance is you’ll be okay
No matter what the distance is I will be with you
No matter what the distance is you’ll be okay

No matter what the distance is you’ll be okay
No matter what the distance is you’ll be okay
I’m so happy
You’ve found a place

Did you play it to the very end Gab? The voicemail from Eddie to Wolfgang?

Very poignant!

Heart wrenching. Having lost my own Dad, I can relate.

I can't understand everything... but I get the idea.

The clip ends with a voicemail message from Eddie to Wolfgang: "I’m just so happy to have you as my son and I’m so proud of you. I love you so much - call me if you get a chance. I wanna hear your voice, okay? I love you, bye."
