Gibson TV recently spotlighted a clip from an in-depth interview with Cantrell that first came out in 2020, with the video titled "Jerry Cantrell on being friends with Eddie Van Halen."
While he was initially intimidated by the legendary musician, they got to know each other on tour, and at one point, Cantrell shared his appreciation for Van Halen's amps and guitars, and the Ernie Ball Music Man EVH signature model in particular, which Van Halen designed.
"Everybody gives me everything for free now, when I can totally afford it. When I couldn’t afford it, nobody would give me anything. So let me do that for you," the Alice in Chains band member recalled Van Halen saying.
Apparently, after warmly greeting the guitarist and welcoming him back, Curtis said, "By the way, do you think you could clear your s--t out of my garage? I need to put my car in there.”
Going on, Cantrell described the moment he saw the unbelievable gift, saying it was "like a scene from a movie," with a couple of guitars, amps, and more sitting in the middle of the small garage.
