I seriously don’t know how you’re so good at recreating tones!
Where can I get those flowers? I do Nirvana tributes in my city. Cheers!
After listening to the performance ,, I told my self,,,i hope that Nirvana Guitars realized this tone recreation,,.Thank you so much!!!????
Can you you please recreate the munich germany 1994 if you any time
Is your twin reverb a vintage tube amp or the solid state revamp ?
Can u do the whole fecal matter album with the superfuzz
????????????????????????awesome
Recreate live at Buenos Aires 1992 tone????
Sorry that i am late, but i just want to wish you all a good 2025!
THE RETURN OF THE SMALL CLONE
Yo i just saw your cover of Come as you are and i was wondering if you could male a video showing the tabs
please make your EQ pedal settings for the 700eq pedal one please too please
Day 2 of seeing if we can get a Pat RAT pedal tone video!!
IMHO one of the most amazing live sound Nirvana had ever on this show!
Hi thank you for the awesome guitars tone recreation. do you think ya'll documente the early kurt cobain SG or SG copies? continue to do great videos about the band we'll love.
Day 3 of asking for full fecal matter cover/tone recreation
do you know any cheaper alternatives to the fender twin reverb that would get these tangy sound's?
Yo, bro! Will you make tutorials or tabs because it seems you play them like how kurt actually played his songs.
Just a requestet????
Would be awesome????
I mean, i can see what you play so ig not lol????
Hey Eric, have you ever considered doing a video on The Lamefest UK 89 show? With the Washburn Force 31, and a MXR Distortion + (that he borrowed from Krist), it seems like a pretty unique show.
Hi I love your videos, say me if you like TheDominoise this song is very PUNK ROCK

Dude how are the hell are you so on point with these tones it’s amazing keep up the great work
hell yeah, the "home town" show kind of… even though i was like 8 years old, i didn't know what a nirvana was… fuckin nailed it again.
hey do you think you could do a vid where you build a budget teen spirit com mustang?
What strings did Kurt use?
Have you watched JHS’ video about recreating tones from 3 Nirvana songs and they get Aaron Rash and say that he is the expert on Nirvana? Were you contacted first?
Pretty accurate. I think some of the songs Kurt played were sharp live?
Get the real Mesa Boogie and Crown then you’ll be exact.
eric, you mentioned (I believe) that Kurt used a neck hotrail on the VMA strat…do you know if it’s true of the black strat as well? great video btw again
you really did this one justice man, love it keep up the good work!
ERIC!!! When you play the interlude in Drain you, is your middle finger fretting anything or is it just hanging there? I'm trying to copy your finger placement but can't tell if you're applying pressure or not.
Great stuff man. Could you do the late 1991 Rome show at the Castillo? Or any of the Early 1992 Japanese show tones?
This move on 6:11 is so badass! Del Mar tone now is my 2nd favourite after Paramount!
I love this cover! It sounds like exactly the live!!!
You should do live in Amsterdam 1991, specifically come as you are. Cheers!
1993 Hollywood Rock tone next? ????????
Do you thing the beringer chorus pedal would get close to the small clone, my chorus pedal just stoped working
Today I got my first pedals: boss ds 2 and Electro harmonix Neo clone
A Cow Palace tone video would be cool. Thanks for the videos!
Kurt cobain: Effect wizard
lowkey the best drain you version, like wtf why does the intro sound so majestic with chorus on
they should've played the song with chorus on the whole time ngl
The Jaguar sounds epic like it has deeper growl to it
MY FAVORITE SHOW! Such a good recreation!
Del Mar is only an hour from where i live(Orange County). If i were alive in the 90s, that would’ve been my go to show haha. Love your tone videos ????️❗️
I can’t describe what you nailed about this tone but you did it really well!
Really cool tone video man. Are going to cover the 1989 Linz show?
Hi Eric, wonderful job as always, love from France ????????????????
Just a quick question, how do you have the same volume with and without the DS2 engaged ? I have one but when I max out the level knob on it, it's WAY louder than when I don't engage it. I don't know if this is really clear, but in other terms, with the same settings on the DS2 than yours, when I stop it, there's a huge volume drop, and my original signal is nearly inaudible.
Thanks 🙂
