I'm the One - Isolated Guitar

This has everything...chops, boogie, tone, swing, groove, brutality, flair, and swagger. It may be the best isolated guitar track ever, and Eddie isn't even my favorite guitarist.

That track was sick! I am still kinda depressed about Eddie’s leaving us, and starting to feel my age.

That's the "Brown Sound", saturated and harmonic, the benchmark guitar tone that set the standard for how rock guitar should sound. One of EVH's many contributions to the state of the art.

THANK YOU! I enjoyed that tremendously.. Listened to that at least 3 times.. Eddie was masterful at interspersing rhythm with technically precise yet rapid leads.. Powerful stuff!

My personal favorite guitar jam of all time is Hendrix' January 1st 1970 live performance of 'Machine Gun' with Band of Gypsys at Fillmore East.. Beyond mind-blowing!

Can't really compare Jimi to Eddie as they were both in a league of their own; both leaving their cutting-edge mark.

Thank you.
