That's not early Van Halen tone.

Please play We Die Bold with it, but plug it into a Die Hard battery from Sears Circa 1976.

You missed the joke,.....waaaay too many YT Panama playing wankers

My demo sids almost always include 'Little dreamer' and 'Feel your love tonight' riffs - which ARE on VH I

I've posted so many times that VH I and II are when the 80's began and his best tone and riffs. All the subsequent albums had a few good songs and just filler pooh. It really reflected that they had to fill out the album at the last minute and just put whatever they had in there to complete them.

"Panama" is not early Van Halen tone.

Now that I got that Ceriatone ‘87/‘68 I plan on going down some VH rabbit holes. Maybe I’ll turn one of my unused Strats into an EVH partscaster, I think this would be a merit-less task without a proper bridge pickup.

I agree with Jim Gaustad.. the first 2~3 records are an Ibanez Super70 and a slightly overwound PAF.
