What's wrong with that?
Hendrix did the same thing.
I don't see anything wrong with flaunting your abillities, EVH knows melodic structure well and R&B music is actually one of his biggest influences. So I think it's unfair to put him in the same category as Michael Angelo Batio releasing 60 minute albums of nonstop guitar gymnastics.
