nothing special, sounds like fast tremolo picking that can be easily achieved by hand. the weirdness factor makes people jizz all over the keyboard. paul is a great guitarist but the drill thingy is just overrated
What type of drill does he? Are those just guitar picks taped to the bit? I heard him saying once you can still pick up these drills on eBay, I remember seeing his pedal board at the Mr. Big show and he had a battery charger for the drills with an extra battery. I thought it was kinda funny. .
5:54 "So the whole thing slow is..." Yeah, cause that's slow. If I could play his version of slow, I would feel like a super awesome guitar player. If that's slow, I'm at a speed somewhere below non-moving.
"now that i've warmed up lets see how perfect i can play this" -.- ... he played it pretty much perfect the first time at the start how much better does he want to be to a normal human :D
I can' t play the "big stretch arpeggio" at 3:03 so fast! my left hand pinky is too short! I think Malmsteen, which is tall and play fast can' t do that.. however great guit player too..
also, he made a mistake, you dont start the long picking streak after the first 6 notes on a downstroke, it starts on an upstroke, to make the alternate picking easier.
@therealpsp1mp me calm down? im just talkin man. ur the one yellin n shit. if he hit the right note then there is technically no mistake. btw did u notice the tiny broken drill mistake? lol
@Zorlak108 the pgm300 series that ibanez makes now come standard with a floyd rose licensed trem (bad idea imo), so he gets a large amount of them and has them filled and gets a standard trem on it. :D
mitico paul gilbert!veramente un maestro,lo si vede anche da come spiega questo solo,di come spiega i gruppi da cinque -penso gruppi irregolari- e da 6 e tutto il resto con estrema chiarezza e semplicita!
what difference does it make? its all to do with how much you squeeze the trigger, but the exact ones he uses live and used on the record they stopped making, but i use their cheapest 7.2V one works well for me!
If you look closely Paul's fingers are SO long that he can stretch from 12-24!!!!!!!!!!! on a 25.5 scale!!!!He doesnt in this tune but by merely pivoting his hand to be more perpendicular he could make it. I can barely make that on a 24 inch scale. I certainly couldn't make that musical though.
u can but you just got to be playing guitar 10 fucking hours a day. and its damn hard to do so. i love his guitar its more awsome as john petrucci's or joe satriani's but less than steve vai's
