I was talking to Brian Young from the Atomic Punks (who now plays with DLR) the other night as a matter of fact, and I can tell you that he has Eddie's tone nailed down to a T. He uses a 5150 head and a few old pedals like Eddie..that's it! You just really have to learn how to tweek it. I actually played through a 5150 head for years and had a kickass sound, but I switched over to a XXX head because I needed 3 channels, and the sound is great, you'll have to come to one of the shows and check it out. I'll try to get all the details on the setup from Brian to get that EVH tone.
Later!

I've heard that it is possible to get the "tone" from the 5150 by simply using different tubes. I will attest that Brian's setup sounds awesome. But he is playing through a Marshall cab rather than the 5150 cab. But then again, he's such a killer guitar player he could probably make a Sears guitar sound good.
