Answering Viewer Questions #3 Favorite pickups, guitars, how to get the EVH tone - no holds barred!

In this video I bring you the 3rd installment of me answering viewer submitted questions. I cover a wide range of topics discussing how to get the best 80's tone, the elusive EVH tone, pickups preferences, my favorite guitars as well as my teaching style and how I learned to work on guitars. I am honored that people ask questions and engage so well on the channel. I really appreciate the positive community we have on here and for all the support I have received. Thank you so much. I hope you enjoy the video. Please subscribe!
