Adrian Vandenberg is a Dutch rock guitarist, best known for his tenure as one of the guitarists in Whitesnake during their successful late 1980s period, and also with the band Vandenberg, which he started in 1981. Vandenberg invited PG’s John Bohlinger to his soundcheck before his recent Nashville show to take us through his rig. Special thanks to guitar tech Willem van Roekel for giving us the extra details.

Adrian Vandenberg youre guitar solo Russie 94 was for me very intense in my soul
What guitare was used ????
crap- if you break your nail your screwed-
Want one of ADRIANS guitars !
Still a badass guitarist ! Finess, power !
Hi Adji !
I got to see him in VB band. Awesome opening up.
What a funny guy. Adrian just made my day. I remember learning Burning Heart when it first came out "a couple of years ago" and was awestruck with the solo tone. Keep on rocking Adrian.
Saw Vandenberg last month in Columbus, the band sounded great, just wish they played less WS and more songs from the Vandenberg albums.
One guy finally taller than John.
No No No…your intro is misleading. The only thing vandenberg did on the whitesnake album was the solo for that shity song. Every song written on guitar was done by John Sykes. Sykes, far and away the only good thing about whitesnake.
The new peavey vandenburgs are absolutely omazing guitars. My original shall always be awesomest because it was my first real guitar and sounded better than anything else i compared with it to buy or use. Not anything could keep up or do what it was able to do.
Holy shit! I thought I was the only one playing with my nails!
Vandenburst finish
John laughs at everything! Really ANNOYING
I don't know if anybody else has said it already. Adrian should try those picks that wrap around your thumb. Just a thought.
I’m an Epiphone SG owner? I wish I had a real Gibson any brand. My father gave it to me before he passed in January 2020. You for sure rock Mr Adrian. Much respect ????????
You been taking hormone pills again haven't you
Lil LES PAUL of Honor
I’ve always loved Adrian play. Was so lucky to see him 35 years ago.????????????????????
Brilliant, Massive respect for Adrian, love his humour too
I just tuned in to see if he talked about the reverse super Strat he played in the Burning Heart video.
I feel awful for thinking so, but I still don't buy the story about the wrist.
Watching the behind-the-scenes stuff that came with the 30th anniversary of the album, the material sounded good… not flashy. The bones were there, but there was nothing remarkable. You'd recognize the tunes, that's it. I think Coverdale just wanted some flash.
Wow????<[]>Great guitarist & comedian????I put a set of Burstbucker Pros on my 2004 Epiphone LP They're Awesome pickups. ErnieBall has been making Strings for so long. They make their own strings & actually make strings for other Brands as well✌????????☯️
Damn…. this dude is 70….. he looks 50.
What a great guy. He's such a funny guy too. Great gear video. Thanks guys. I really appreciate it. ❤
This guy couldn't be any cooler.
What a super dude! Great video!
Adrian …….Amazing
Willem is my guitar tech too! Only this Willem is a 110 lbs shepherd. He does a great relic job, but everything else is.. ehm… Let's say he's still in training by his boss… That can do a setup, but much rather gets Willem annoyed with bumnotes, feedback and other cruel things he does to a guitar… He's a good dog though!
The Les Paul looks cool maestro! Let 'r rip! ????????
He made me buy a hockey head guitar in 86 with custom paint????
I have JB and Jazz pickups in one of my guitars and out of all my guitars that one sounds the best. Love Seymore Duncan pick ups
????Vandenberg????
I don't think John is used to having to look UP at many people. ???? Adrian's looking good! I wish I aged as good as he does!
Great interview❤
AV seems such a cool and good guy … awesome guitar player as well ????????
No way, i use hybrid strings and also play with my very short nail (down stroke), flesh (up strokes) too coincidental. I do this because 20 years ago i pulled out ny nylon flamenco acoustics, and never picked up a pick again. I need to learn how to make at least one video before i die. Hahaha, I'm in my mid sixty's and play with seniors like myself sometimes drums or guitar and or bass. Always with finger and hand pain, that specialists in texas could never fix. So, asprin, gummies, turmeric , and Dos X's seem like ok maintenance. Blessings to my fellow rockers.
