Van Halen 1984 Brown Sound with Same Rig as Eddie -- Live Amp in Studio
Just a fun video playing through my 1984 rig to a Drop Dead Legs backing track found on UA-cam. I didn't embarrass myself trying to play Ed's outro solo. :-)

Awesome! Sorry about have a really ignorant question because I’m a beginner; Where is the distortion coming from? Thanks in advance.
Hi, where do you get the backing tracks? How doesn't youtube complain about Copyright for the backing track? Thanks
They do complain. The copyright owners get all the ad revenue - I get none of it.
NICE NICE NICE!!!! Pop a 50k mid pot in that bad boy and I bet you won't be able to tell any difference at all. Still, VERY nice!!!
Hi Jimi, would you be able to make a Paul Gilbert (Mr Big) pack for tonex? thank you very much
Surprised you didn't jump the channels.
Don’t think Ed did that
Tuned in the Key of Ed!
And purchased!
Ooowwhhooaaaa
Do you have a video on how you applied your variac? I’ve done some research and saw it’s potentially dangerous for your amp and I wanna do it correctly. I wanna use a variac for my VH tone chase
Just set it to output 90V. Don’t raise the voltage above line level or you’ll likely do damage.
What is line level?
@ironboy1991 120V
Cool, I play in an Ozzy Randy tribute called flying high again, using wizards and pedals but you nail the sound
👏👏👏👏👏
It does not sound like Eddie's tone at all....
Panama has some double track or slap echo that’s missing
Just put a 50k pot for the Middle pot. His by either fluke or he had someone do it, it’s a mid boost and you’ll understand once you put it in! 😊
Any chance of bringing this pack to Tonex?
Damn nailed it!
I want to say, and I didn't realize it until I bought some, was the Dimarzio Super Distortions are a huge key to the sound as well. The difference in sound was huge when I installed a set of those in my Les Paul.
RIP EDDIE. not only a player but an inventor.. A guitarists guitarist. We salute you.
Usually not heavily influenced by pickups, but the Gibson Dirtyfingers are unique sounding. They stand out for that Sykes sound
Need it for Tonex! Any plans for a possible release?
Great job it sounds just like it!
In his early career he used Fane 75W speakers, not Greenbacks (he used them, but later).
That’s insanely close- I’ve never heard a better brown sound! It’s a Marshall Super Lead, right?
It’s technically a Super Tremolo but the tremolo’s been disconnected, making it a Super Lead.
EVH
Can I ask how these profiles work on the player with the limited effects slots? I will only need the liquid studio profiles
Ed was the tone master. He was so good he had 2 different era's of tone and they were both fantastic. A lot of people love the early VH tone the "brown sound". I also like the wet dry wet tone he also came up with from 5150 onward. I think they're both great.
I enjoyed both tones as well, but I really loved the Sammy Hagar era tones.🤘
That tone is spot on. I've got a Friedman Vintage Plex coming in a few days. It's based on Dave Friedman's personal '68 Plexi, his favorite amp. He was Eddie's rig builder for awhile. It's got a built in variac that goes down to 90 volts with a toggle switch. I'm pretty excited to get it. Great video thanks for sharing
Sounds indistinguishable, well done. What are you using for reverb? Interesting also that the 57s look to be 6 inches away from the cab instead of right on it
There’s a photo of VH in the studio tracking something for VH I and it showed an SM56 about 6” off the speaker. I had success using that. Just used a hall reverb available in my DAW.
So, basically I can go borrow, rent, steal any amp I can get my hands on and get a' copy'of its tone and characteristics? That's just too cool.
yep
If you don’t mind me asking, what mic pres, post eq (plugins/ hardware?), audio interface did you use for the Tonex profiles here?
Waw the right tone, do you use a power soak?
Hi. No, I don’t like the sound of power soaks. Some sound better than others, but I think they all detract from the tone somewhat.
Great Job ! Great Tones ! Van Halen is back, amazing. So close to the Record
Hello, friends, can these files be used on ToneX One?!
Sorry, Kemper only at this time
It's scary how close to the albums this guy's tones are. We're witnessing some kind of savant here.
sounds nothing like the real thing. sorry.
What effects are used?
Just reverb.
need this on tonex Jimiiiii
The hunter tone just amazing.
I used that tone live to great effect 🤘
Awesome Tone, Nice Playing. 🫡
Nailed it.
Excellent playing style!! Amazing sound but I admire your talent
sick
Retroking amps makes replicas of the JTM 45 and 1987 amps and you can order the optional neg feedback control.
Years ago, i've seen a almost close setup using a JMC800 series 1959 head, Boss overdrive peal for booster, Rockman attenuatore and HUSH, alesis Quadaverb, BBE Sonic maximizer and a ASA poweramp going thru a 4x12
By any chance do you have any profiles on the live reunion album? That album to me has the most beastly iommi tones ive ever heard
There is a profile of the 2017 reunion tour tone 🤘
You really are a tone chaser.
I love my original 5150 still.
Does the 84 rig have a chorus effect added with the pack? Also any chance of a Sammy era pack coming?
1984 was such a great album...any with Dave were great, of course.
You need a 4 12 inch cab loaded with D120s to pull off the brown sound.
