“A little tribute to Ed”: Neal Schon channels his inner Eddie Van Halen in jaw-dropping shred clip

Neal Schon Van Halen tribute shred clip

Journey guitar hero Neal Schon has shared a new clip showcasing a mammoth shred workout, which he (somewhat modestly) describes as “a little tribute” to Eddie Van Halen.

The 3:35 video shows Schon, armed with an EVH Striped Series electric guitar, unleashing a virtuosic display of shred talent, including some viciously fast and consistent picking, two-handed tapping and a killer vibrato.
