I assumed it was the Steinberger at the time.Ī 5150 and a Wolfgang(PV) Will cover a lot of ground. So maybe his Wolfgangs were finished and he used them? He had a black one too so I don't know which one he really used. I'm remembering the white Wolfgang Special with trans trem he used on Me Wise Magic. It sounds so good I wonder if it's his Marshall?Īnd I absolutely have the III live tone with my old 5150 half stack and Peavey Archtop Wolfgang. Peavey was still sending or perfecting prototypes with him. But the timing of that recording and his tone make me think EBMM. He was seen playing white ones in public after that.
Anyway that guitar disappeared and he never used it again. Lets look at some of the guitar equipment gear that Eddie had been seen using during his long and storied career with the rock and roll band Van Halen. In the Humans Being Vid he's playing a Black Peavey Wolfgang. If I use the Pitchfactor for the EVH thing, I turn the modulation off on the Roland units if I'm using those.Īnd now, here are a few pics of the W/D/W rig just because I feel like sharing it :ĥ150. I never use the El Cap and Rolands at the same time, it is either the El Cap alone, or the two Roland SDE-3000 units alone with the two different delay setting left and right. I always include a bit of dry sound in the wet cabs - some people don't, it is just my preference. Henning Cherry Bomb line out goes into a stereo Strymon El Capistan -> stereo Eventide Pitchfactor (which I set for the EVH +9/-9 cents pitch shift left and right for that chorus-y later EVH sound) and then into two mono Roland SDE-3000 delays (I set one for 250ms delay and one for 500ms delay) -> stereo Matrix GT 800FX power amp -> left and right Henning 4x12 cabs. Henning Cherry Bomb speaker out to center Henning 4x12 cab - this is my dry sound However, Ed’s massive guitar sound is generated by just a single 100-percent stock.

It gives this incredibly thick guitar sound that is just amazing in the room - lots of pro players do it or W/D. Van Halen’s onstage backline is an impressive sight consisting of IIIS heads III 4×12 speaker cabinets, and so are his racks, which are hidden from view at stage left and contain eight EVH 5150 heads of various models. Typically, you'd be running time-based effects from the line out into the "wet" left and right cabs.

You would then take a line out from the guitar amp (either a built in line out or from something like the Suhr ISO Line Out that turns a regular speaker output into a line out) to stereo or mono effects and then run the output of the effects into a stereo power amp and then into the left and right cabs. The center cab is dry, directly from the guitar amp you are using. It is a setup where you have 3 cabs - usually 4x12s live.
