How doos.

Just to say hi, have been a Van Halen fan since early ’80s and keep going back to them. Still remember the issue of Guitar Player where Steve Vai taught us how to play Eruption which got me up and running. Am fascinated by the Brown sound and have owned many amps in a search to get it. Currently loving the Axe Fx. Am awaiting with interest what Eddie’s new El34 plexi style amps is going to sound like.

Also love Uli Roth, Blackmore and Allan Holdsworth.

A few years ago I listening to the tape interview with Jas Obrecht when it was on Youtube and have been trying to get hold of it ever since, which lead me to this site. I can remember some really interesting candid talk about Allan Holdsworth who is another hero of mine. Hoping to make a connection to get hold of that again.

Looking forward to talking to you guys.

All the best
Jon

Welcome.

The poor folks play for keeps down here…They’re the living dead. Nobody rules these streets at night like Van Halen!!

Welcome Jon! Hey ~ you forgot to mention you’re a Brit~! There are a few other Brits on the site – they might be able to help you out with some of the things you’re after. And VHTrading member “Chris UK” is not only a guitarist and Eddie Van Halen fan – he’s also a huge Uli fan.

I have that EVH 82 interview. If nobody gets to it… I can send a download link in next day or two

that new EVH amp should sound pretty sweet I’d imagine. Some of my fave amps out there with killer tone that attempt to get that brown/plexi sound (Friedman, Cameron Atomica, David Bray)

Welcome to VHT.

EDDIE’S fingers aren’t fingers they are muscle-powered pistons that hammer guitar strings to the fretboard with the force of a rivet gun”.

Hi Jon,

Welcome aboard, great place this. If you still need the Jas Obrecht interview, drop me a pm and I can snail-mail it out to you no problem – I’m in the UK too.

All the best

Chris

Thanks guys for the warm welcome. This is a great forum,looking forward to some good exchanges. Much appreciated for the offers of help with the Jas Obrecht interview. I see some of you guys are Uli Roth fans. I have a Sky Guitar, which Uli played at a gig in Newcastle last year. There is a great word document ‘manual’ that Uli has written all about which I will be happy to email to anyone who wants a copy of this.

Here is my Youtube channel with various guitar stuff on.

That amp collection is to die for. I had a Bray 45/50 which was great but it was based off a JTM45 circuit rather than a plexi so not quite as much punch as his best work, Got the frankie pickup in my main gigging axe,m which also has a malmsteen scalloped neck.
