Nicest guy you’ll ever meet.
For you and for me and the entire human's rac.... Sorry wrong song

Paul went from being like the the cool older brother around the time of Intense Rock, to the crazy, fun uncle nowadays.
This is so true!

Paul is kinda like a brother to us all (guitarists) ...and like your brothers ... you don't notice them ageing...but yeah...cause he was so good at such a young age...that he has to look different now.....oh the days of Mr Big! Edit: Oh no!!!! Pat Torpy died .. why hadn't i heard this before .. the band of brothers ... R.I.P. Pat kzhead.info/sun/h6iAptGFaKN3iZ8/bejne.html

I'm a simple man, I see Paul Gilbert - I click
No matter how long or how good you are, Paul Gilbert has such a great way to make you feel enthusiastic about playing again, no matter how "beginner" it may seem. Reinforcing the idea of fun and fundamentals can be so transforming for players of all skill levels. Always glad to see more PG videos!
Exactly!!!
I love this and I'm a beginner.
So freaking well put
Reminds me of a quote from a movie the guy was a baseball star. He said if you're not having fun you can't compete.
Well said brother
Paul is a ray of sunshine.
PG.. the greatest teacher.
He can do more with 4 notes than I can with the entire guitar
didn't knoe he had esp. read my mind about the 4 note 7th scale. maybe I can shine him into getting me a semi hollow lefty ivebeenhad. lefty's are hard to come across
4note 7th scale chord
yep
Exactly who i felt lol
THIS
What a master teacher. So engaging. Thanks Paul and Nick.
How can you not love this guy. Freakin phenomenal guitarist/musician, and instructor. He knows exactly how to explain guitar from the theory to application. He will go down as one of the greatest ever. Great great video!! Thanks Sweetwater! !!
For those that don't know Nick Bowcott "the interviewer" is a wonderful Guitarist himself that made some nice albums in the 80's with Grim Reaper. He play's lefty too. Nice seeing him look happy.
Zak Edwardz yeah, Grim Reaper rocked
And a contributor to many guitar magazines in the 80’s
Wait... "See You in Hell" Grim Reaper?
Thanks for sharing that. Love grim reaper
its one thing to be a virtuoso but such a fun amusing natural teacher is incredible. Such a personality. What a guy. Cheers Paul Gilbert. Guitar needs more dudes like you fore sure!
@King Brilliant paul gilbert is one of those guitarist with whom others are compared to. And to be honest guthrie is maybe the only guitarist on par with this guy's speed and skills. But apart from speed which we know he has mastered he also has vast knowledge of music besides just shredding
King Brilliant how you gonna bait like that and then not reply? Terrible effort.
Like a mad scientist with a guitar.
There is nobody who seems to have that facial expression of pure joy when playing, more than Paul.
Paul is the best. I've been a huge fan of his for decades.
8:29 “You can keep your widdley widdley” That one got me 😂😅🤣
Love you Paul.Your by far the best guitar teacher out there.And not to forget one of the best guitar virtuousos of all time.
I’ve learned so much from this guys videos it’s unreal. My “ watch later” list is literally littered with Paul G videos
sneifert1968 Me too! He's the best!!
Same here dudes!
Ditto
Mine too now... Lol
Might as well make a Paul G playlist from the sound of it lol. That’s I’ve done with my favorite players’ lessons.
The greatest guitarist of all time.
That Paulito, was a smoking intro.
Paul Gilbert is one of the best guitar teachers ever. Great attitude, amazingly qualified, and teaches concepts you can immediately use. Him and Tom Feldmann are my favorites for video lessons.
Honestly I only really learned one thing from this. That I can learn a whole lot from Paul Gilbert
Paul makes things so approachable.
I wish every guitar tutor would be as dte and humble as Mr. Gilbert.
“...because I love these notes and it’s worth the time.” Best motivation you could ask for. Great lesson.
That was awesome!
Love your stuff too dude! Saved my ass a few times.
Love your work man
I have been playing for 20yrs and this made me feel like a kid again. I love PG. Legendary!!!
The Man , the Legend, the ONE and ONLY, P A U L G I L B E R T !!!
One of the best lessons I've seen...ever.
How can Paul Gilbert teach a rather similar techniques he's been teaching for past decade, yet still able to make us feel its a new thing to practice to? What a legend Paul Gilbert. Hoped you lived hundreds of years.
There are still not enough Paul Gilbert videos. Paul is such an awesome guy!
Man i love Paul Gilbert
U can tell this man is a great teacher he’s the reason we have buckethead 🙏🙏🙏🙏
awesome player awesome teacher really nice guy when I met him at a clinic
Outstanding! All the good stuff!
Paul.... You are the man.
PG is just the best! I always learn so much from him and have over my 20 years playing the guitar! Thank you for this rad lesson!
True Master
Brilliant!
Amazing lesson!
Ridiculous!! Amazing Intro!!! Wow 😮!! What Playing!! Omg!! 🎸🎶🔥🤘🏻🤘🏻
Paul is such an amazing guitarist and Guitar teacher! Thanks for sharing Sweetwater!
Maestro!!!!
The best guitarist in the World
Pure Genius Paul Gilbert
What a great teacher.
Awesome stuff Paul!
Paul explains everything very well, and does so with humor and wisdom ! This is why he's one of my favorite players !! :)
RRRK! :) I love how as far back as Terrifying Guitar Trip Paul Gilbert has shown that personality is a massive part of guitar playing. He comes across as somebody who takes nothing seriously apart from his respect for his listener, the absolute love he has for the music the guitar can make, and how it can make you smile.
Thanks Paul! Helped me alot today ^^
great player Paul, and great teacher too! thanks
Wow!!! I have read most of the comments and I have to say, Paul truly motivates. The guitar is meant to be played not to be coddled. Thanks Paul!
Love the mag strip to hold the slide......smart!!
one of those things you see and go "how have i never thought of that?!?!"
New Gear Day exactly!!!!
Have to wonder if the magnets will affect the pickups by modifying their gauss or something....
I'm assuming no, its a strip just big enuff /strong enuff to just hold the slide and no have an adverse effect on the pups. I've been trying to find an article or anything where PG might talk about or mention this, no luck so far. I'd be willing to try this on my own axes to see how it works.
Well, where the slide meets the gaffer's tape (magnet) is a very round surface so the magnet is going to have a hard time clinging to it, it needs to be fairly strong to hold the slide. Strong magnets can harm pickup gauss charges: www.strat-talk.com/threads/things-we-all-do-that-degauss-your-pickups.211370/page-5#post-1173268
Brilliant, just brilliant
Love Paul Gilbert
Paul´s such an energetic and engaging teacher it´s instantly contagious and makes you WANT to practice. Damn, if my math teacher had been like this I´d be Einstein by now!
Aside from his (obviously) world-class playing, Paul is a really gifted teacher as well. Thanks for doin this guys -- I've probably watched this whole thing 20 times now~
Best lesson ever!!!! Thanks!!!!!
Simply astonishing
Paul Gilbert, the best motivation/demotivation to play guitar
Deterrent*
Wow!!! PG should give masterclass lessons!!!! Take my money!!!!!!!!!!!
Wonderful and joyful lesson.
What a great teacher
"The augmented fourth, or diminished fifth, depending on your outlook on life." -Bill Bailey
Seriously thinking about signing up to lessons with this guy but I'd feel like a 2 year old kid showing his finger painting to Van Gough
Love this guy
Paul Gilbert, the king of pentatonic
Everyone has the same notes. Its about creativity :)
so musical!!! even in racer X PAUL was shredding but BENDING STRINGS,using intense musicality as well as spot on rhythm...MH could learn a lesson from this
I love you Paul! cheers!
Thanks Paul!❤️❤️❤️
Thank You! Sweetwater truly ROX! Best dudes in the world to deal with. They back their shit:) ...yeah, you can use that:)
Paul actually needs to do a lesson on... kindness
ibaldosid he's already a very kind person. idiot
Veura Spear he means Paul is such a nice, kind guy that he could actually teach people how to be kind.
You people need to sign up to the Paul Gilbert kindness lessons I mentioned on my comment
Geoff Sweet you’re not comprehending what Ibaldosid said. He’s not saying Paul needs lessons on kindness, he’s saying Paul IS so kind that he could teach OTHER PEOPLE how to be kind.
Victor Wooten has his School of Music and Nature, Paul needs to open a School of Music and Kindness
I love this guy! Thank you Paul!
Great lesson
Every time I watch him play something, anything.... I want to turn my guitar into a coffee table or take up checkers. Then I realize I'm just a mere mortal human and I can start playing again.... He truly is an amazing guitar player...
Oh my. The KZhead pentatonic-hating-elite-guitarists club is gonna hate this.
Waters take a look around at the guitar tutorial pages here in youtube. Most of the teachers discourage people from learning the pentatonic scale. Says it’s too easy and encourages students to noodle around without learning too much music theory. This is why rock and roll is dead lol
oh man I only play chromatically as if im some kind of John Coltrane although I don't have nearly as much experience and talent as him
Paul has done it all. He's immune to the penta-hate club.
@Waters and Eric Johnson, and Shawn Lane, and we could go on all day lmao.
@King Brilliant Man o man, if PG is a one trick pony, why don't you show us some of your tricks. You know, the one's PG can only dream about... That's what I thought...
What a total legend.
Amazing. Thanks. Mr.Gilbert
Despite being a Joe fanatic since the 80s, I'll be dammed if anyone can name me one other stupendous guitar player who exudes as much sheer, genuine joy when playing [and teaching!] as PG does. I dare ya... :D Best. Guitar. Faces. EVER.
Good comment, but I just thought of one: Tommy Emmanuel. If you haven't heard of him, you'll thank me later. He's a crack-up, and a very amusing guy, and you can tell he gets sheer JOY from playing and performing for an audience. He actually has a really insightful Ted Talk too. Check it out.
@@gr8guitarplayer And he's likely the world's best acoustic guitarist. An Australian national treasure. ✌️🇦🇺
Paul, needs to play more melodic neo-classical lead soloing ! Pls ! with all due respect ✊
What a badass lesson
Paul Gilbert makes the world guitar very easy ! 🎸🎵👌🏻
That magnet is one of the smartest things I've seen in life.
I'm surprised that magnet doesn't mess with the pickup. It seems it would have to be pretty powerful to hold that heavy slide in place, especially if standing up and rocking out!
"Doobie Bros chord" Haha I LOVE IT!! Made my day.
How amazing Paul really is! Look at how he uses his stamping foot as a metronome at the beginning.
This is amazing!! More of this type of content!!
Paul Gilbert: its easy Me: Damn you Paul Gilbert, (shakes fist) DAMMMM YOUUUUUUU !!!
😁😆😂🤣😁😆😂🤣
Always a treat to watch Paul. Btw is he ok? His speech/mouth appears different... Hope all is well with him. Seems like a great guy and ambassador!
hearing problems : www.tinnitustalk.com/threads/the-ringing-does-not-bother-me-%E2%80%94paul-gilbert.12202/
It does sound dental related although wealthy people usually get vaneeres (not dentures) which wouldn't cause the lisp. Also, I have tinnitus and it wouldn't change the way he speaks. There's something going on with his mouth or speech as you can look back to videos from the 90's and 2000's and he doesn't have it.
Josh Brown I was wondering the same. My first thought was something mental, but that would affect his playing or his word choice/fluidity. I'm guessing it's some dental work. Denture, retainer, pallet expander. He's had hearing issues for a while, so I wouldn't expect that to suddenly make him slur a bit.
I've been noticing this for years, getting progressively more noticeable. I think it's his ears; if you've ever heard someone speak who lost their hearing many years ago, they tend to have this sort of slur happening.
I noticed that as well like speaking with a lisp.
Thanks Paul - brilliant!
ABSOLUTELY COOL
When he goes “eeerrt” makes me know he’s a humble guitarist instead of trying to be cool
When the aliens land, we’ll send Paul to greet them. Then they’ll take him back home.
another amazing guy
Great lesson thank you!
14:19 wimpiest vibrato, was rolling on the floor with laughter
He should stick to shredding which is his strong point. Blues playing takes finess. He plays too stiff, with no phrasing dynamics. Amazing technical musician though.
Edgar Gomez isn’t he just showing an example of a bad vibrato?
Mike Albert agreed. I’m PG biggest fan and I’m not afraid to admit his blues stuff is too staccato-pentatonic-escue. Check his playing with Andy Timmons at NAMM you’ll see what I mean.
Mike Albert Have to agree. Paul is very personable and likable and very accomplished with the guitar but I just don’t care for shredding, not my thing, can’t do it don’t like listening to it. He’s not the one to be showing ppl how to play blues licks.
How funny would it have been if Paul busted out a Grim Reaper riff right in front of Nick Bowcott? LOL!
Amazing lesson thanks for sharing this🎸
Possibly one of the most amazing videos I've ever seen. So much awesome came out of that. Thanks so much.
Paul Gilbert is a cheater ! He has GIANT hands ! More seriously, Paul is an incredible teacher.
Melpheos1er Paul can probably palm a wrecking ball.
Giant guitar to
I think Vai has him beat in the hand size department.
hahaha 4 Middle Fingers. He's great on the freeway.
