I used to own this on video a few years back. This video is sweet. Although at times you may catch yourself not even trying to do what Curt pulls off (mostly because you're enjoying watching him play) it will definitely improve your dynamic range of guitar playing ability.

Here's a BIG plus: he shows you what effects he used, what amplifiers (50 watt Marshall Plexi, then Soldano lead, etc.) He goes on to show you 50 or so guitar riffs (mastering these riffs will render your a god among your other guitar player friends - unless they are guitar gods themselves).

The reason that I only put 4 stars: because he only shows your Eddies wicked riffs, he doesn't show you how he plays his rythm (which is still half rythm, half lead).

Anyway for an aspiring shredder, it's well worth your money!

This is a good video to help you work towards eddys style. understand that to play his style you need time, patience and practice. i've watched the video 5 times to keep learning. its helped me understand how he plays, his setup etc...

This is a poorly produced DVD, with little educational value.Save your money and buy a decent book, like Van Halen Best Of, Volume I for example.Van Halen Best Of, Volume I (Best of Van Halen)
