from The Johnny Beane Podcast · host Johnny Beane

Today on Exclusively Van Halen on Johnny Beane TV — we dive into a killer new interview with Mark Tremonti (Alter Bridge, Creed) where he talks about PRS building a new Dumble-inspired amp that he says will leave fans “slack-jawed.” Tremonti shares the moment Paul Reed Smith first handed him a Dumble, sparking his obsession with that legendary tone, and how it led to his PRS MT 100 signature head. He also reflects on his time at Eddie Van Halen’s legendary 5150 Studios — becoming the first band outside the Van Halen family to record there — and the stories, memorabilia, and inspiration he found inside those hallowed walls. Plus: How Wolfgang Van Halen gifted Tremonti an EVH 5153 amp from 5150 Studios Memories of meeting Eddie when Creed supported Van Halen in the late ‘90s Watching Van Halen rehearse A Different Kind of Truth up close The unexpected Alter Bridge–Van Halen connection If you’re a fan of PRS, Dumble amps, or Eddie Van Halen’s legacy, you won’t want to miss this! #VanHalen #EVHGEAR #MarkTremonti #PRS #DumbleAmp #AlterBridge #WolfgangVanHalen #EddieVanHalen #5150Studios #Creed #GuitarNews #JohnnyBeaneTV #VanHalenNews #GuitarGear #RockNews #GuitarLegends Want to create live streams like this?
