Academy of Tone #13 "Eddie‘s legendary Brown Sound, Plexi & Variac - how you get that Tone on AMP1"

Eddie‘s legendary brown sound with a real Plexi and Variac, and how you get that iconic Tone on the AMP1. Thomas reveals the secrets of Eddie’s legendary brown sound with all the ingredients the virtuoso was using back in the day. The challenge will be to recreate that iconic tone with the AMP1. Together with guest and EVH Connaisseur Manuel Kettenring they will have a look on the modern EVH amps and compare it with the AMP1 Iridium Edition.
