@dydziooo Paul GIlbert is Bucketheads teacher and there are lots of other things that BH got from PG, like Big sur moon, which uses pauls echo technique.
@ace41r BH has been playing w/ PG since he was 15 (PG was 18 at the time) for all we know Paul got from him. Both are talented as fuck, and this lick is lyk cake to both of them.
evh originated some of this pattern in little dreamer, eruption, and maybe at the end of ice cream man, unless paul actually played on that first album... yngvie said that album was unusually well played he he... also demartini further stole the lick and worked it into back for more, only he used it with 3 whole steps, and initiated it with some kind of elusive timing.
It seems like all the famous 'shredder' videos' comments aren't even about the actual videos anymore, just fanboy arguments. Who cares who is better? That's not what music is about.
guys PG and BH are different, PG is a normal shred guitarist who just makes solo licks etc. and studies guitar on his own day in day out for prob over 30 years or so. Buckethead is as sick as him on guitar, but i dont think he studies music like PG does. Its logical hes a bit more sloppy, he probably doesnt play half as much.
i love this lick its just what i was looking for and buckethead is great too i like to say, them guitars with there delade dadode da do do is just great!
cleaner than buckethead? no, they are equally clean. buckethead has messed up occasionally, but when you have a mask over your face and guitar with no fret markers it's near impossible not to mess up every once in a while.
@Fluffypopcicle "cleaner than buckethead? no, they are equally clean.im sorry there realy not" dont get me wrong my wife is not gona now the difference .but then she thinks i sound like vinnie moore and cant hear the difference in how much cleaner he is than me .if you cant hear it you cant hear it but trust me when i tell you your wrong . buckethead is occasionally sloppy, even when sitting down .
@Fluffypopcicle I can lead a horse to water .im sorry if you cant hear it but no amount of me pointing out muddy neck pick-up licks borrowed from Gilbert played with less accuracy by buckethead is going to change your mind. get practising listen to every skilled player. work it till its sound like a card stuck in the spokes of a bike then we can talk. because then you will know .
i meant give me a video or something like that. describing it won't do anything. of course you try to sound like you know something and give an excuse to why you can't prove it. im not even sure if you have ever listened to a buckethead solo lol. buckethead hardly ever uses his neck pickup when he plays paul gilbert licks.
@Fluffypopcicle.you dont know what your talking about ,but when you do as I said then you will know. Until then your just an ignorant kid trying to tell a player of over 20 years something you dont yet have the tools to understand lol .buckthead regularly plays with the neck pick up and you can even hear that Jesus you haven't even started to understand.lol talk to you in 3 years may be then .
okay, it's been 3 years and you're still retarded. yes, buckethead uses his neck pickup frequently, but for shred he usually uses the neck pickup much less than the bridge. just look at where the pickup selector is. you still bring NO valid evidence to the plate anyways. saying you don't have to show me proof, it's just something experienced musicians can hear, is like saying a musician sucks just because. no real reason, just a stupid attempt to sound experienced.
It's mostly about your perception of what you hear. Two years ago when I first heard BH I thought he's flawless. But after these 2 years of listening to Paul I've watched a couple of BH videos here on youtube and the guy is sloppy sometimes. He's fast and pretty accurate but he can't touch Paul. TBH I don't know a guitar player who CAN touch PG when it comes to accuracy. He can hit a bad note in a solo, but never gets totally derailed by it.
yes, he can be sloppy, but if paul put a bucket on his head, a mask over his face, and played a guitar with no fret markers, i guarantee you he would be very sloppy. you want somebody cleaner than paul? i will give you 4: shawn lane, guthrie govan, rusty cooley, and david shankle.
Did you ever try to shred? A lot of times, playing the patterns you know it's actually easier to play not looking at the guitar since you don't think about where your fingers go and just focus on the pattern. Shawn Lane was pretty terrifying, but he's gone now. And I don't think any of these guys is 'cleaner'. They are 'as clean'. But you can't be better than perfect. Come on.
it's not the fact that he is playing tricky patterns, it's where he is supposed to play those tricky patterns. i say those people are more clean than paul gilbert because they play trickier stuff, but play it just as clean, if not cleaner than paul gilbert.
I'm not really a fan of that pattern played so quickly. I thought it sounded much prettier slowed down. The technical merit is definitely there, but artistically it just sounds like mush. Few notes sound prettier played faster.
@MistahhB And yet Bucketheads picking and legato technique is virtually identical to Pauls very distinctive ones (nothing at all like the techniques pebber insists people should learn in his videos, no 'sarod' picking or anything like that), he uses very similar licks to Paul (again distinctive) and in the few interviews he has done he ALWAYS mentions Paul Gilbert as a massive inspiration and help in his playing, he has never mentioned pebber in one. Its pretty clear who had the biggest impact.
@Necropenguins i think pg had a big influence on bh because bh took lessons from him when he was like 15, so i guess that is around when bh was developing all this licks.
@MistahhB Strangely if you attempt to post any of this information (all of which is 100% true and easily verifiable using google) on any videos relating to pebber then be prepared to recieve relentless misdirected abuse and ridiculous arguments from the same group of 3 or 4 guys every time who claim to be close friends of pebber. Highly dubious all the way.
@ibanezxiphos700 Buckethead didn't "go to paul" for lessons. They worked with each other, teaching each other things. Buckethead had been playing guitar for near 15 years before him and PG worked together, I think he already had his own style established by then.
But yes, Buckethead does use some PG-ish licks, but that's because he respects him so much. It's kind of like an homage to PG.
@srng619 well that and alot of people do it... yngwie malmsteen did it for example, not exactly like that, but its a part or a scale i believe, its really just that paul and buck both use it alot
@srng619 Absolutely Correct Mate! cuz hes Buckethead teacher, and Buckethead Influences! Love them both ae, Paul G. & Buckethead 2 of my guitar Influences ever!
0:46 to 0:53 is the chorus of Judas Priest-Living After Midnight........FANTASTIC i just learnt it from this video!!Paul does 2 lessons or maybe 3 in 1!!!!!! And tabs at ultimate-guitar sucks horse balls!! Paul Owns!
whats the point of emotion in a song if you dont show it, look at paul gilbert and his fast licks, look at him, thats emotion, its not mental its phsical, how can you put on a great show if you stand in the same spot
you really should keep your shit comments to yourslef btw cause you have no idea what the hell i know and what i dont know about guitar so shut the fuk up
@123satanic321 If a song is written well enough, a musician shouldn't have to move when playing it. In my opinion, most "emotion" conveyed by moving on stage is empty.
If you download or buy some of Bucketheads many solo albums you`ll hear alot of emotion in his songs. He is not just about speed and technique. He is a complete player.
no offense to you, i think bucket head is really good, but YOU KNOW he does just stand on stage most of the time and just tilt his head to the side, then again i cant see through his mask so maybe he does, i still think paul gilbert is better, cause without him buckethead would be another shred guitarist without extra ordinary skills
I like Paul Gilbert better too but I think it`s wrong when people make remarks about Bucketheads playing when many, not all, barely have listened to his music.
One of the main points of Buckethead is to listen to the music and not care about the man behind the mask. The music he creates is full of emotion, the character however does stand there, just so you can listen and not think about him. So just blatantly stating "no emotion, stands and tilts head" is showing the ignorance of what Bucket really is.
is it ignorant or informed to say 90% of what gilbert plays is an overpractised pattern? I mean here hes going on about an 11 note patter - i think theyre called nondecatuplits - but jazz and fusion players play this sort of thing all the time, while improvising!
Not really, just a bit of an over statement. Pauls got his own signature licks that he recycles a lot when he's improving, but listen his records. Back before the instrumenta ones he sang and only had basic enough guitar work with neat solos and on the instrumental ones he has a pretty wide lick and riff repetoire.
But on these vids all over youtube its all the same thing.
Buckethead has ridiculous amounts of emotion, you just decide to ignore it. And he does not stand still, I have videos of a concert I went to and he was plenty active on stage. Not to mention the dancing and the nuncucks.
heh, all this time i thought this was bucketheads signature (to a point of overusage) lick, but apparently he got it from paul! still love both of them to shreds though
Hehe funny, but no. Im not critizing since I've been using when I was younger and I play guitar And im a PG fan. I don't care if he does heroin(which he obviously isn't). Nothing will ever change my musical opinions about him. Pz
Yeah it is a beautiful guitar, but at $9000-$10000 dollars I don't think I'll be getting one soon. Why couldn't Ibanez just put these out and have them priced near a normal iceman? They always have to do limited runs and raise the price to outrageous proportions. $9000 dollars for a reverse Iceman?
The shavings of the Korina wood that they use for the guitar are actually poisonous. Because of this it has to be manufactured in a separate factory. Higher overheads = much higher retail price :( Gutted, they sound SO good!!! Saw him play one last Dec, I was about 4 meters away. What a tone!!
That's because he does have a huge nose. There's another video of him on here from an old music video he did that really accentuates its size, and lots of people comment about it. I think it's where he gets most of his tone. Kidding, but it is huge.

is it ignorant or informed to say 90% of what gilbert plays is an overpractised pattern? I mean here hes going on about an 11 note patter - i think theyre called nondecatuplits - but jazz and fusion players play this sort of thing all the time, while improvising!

Not really, just a bit of an over statement. Pauls got his own signature licks that he recycles a lot when he's improving, but listen his records. Back before the instrumenta ones he sang and only had basic enough guitar work with neat solos and on the instrumental ones he has a pretty wide lick and riff repetoire.
But on these vids all over youtube its all the same thing.

Buckethead has ridiculous amounts of emotion, you just decide to ignore it. And he does not stand still, I have videos of a concert I went to and he was plenty active on stage. Not to mention the dancing and the nuncucks.

thats called the electric guitar, similar to a drug but not at all...

Hehe funny, but no. Im not critizing since I've been using when I was younger and I play guitar And im a PG fan. I don't care if he does heroin(which he obviously isn't). Nothing will ever change my musical opinions about him. Pz

He's said in an interview with Ultimate Guitar that he doesn't do drugs.

Why is this a big deal? I don't do drugs either, but i have when I was young and naive.
Mind you, this pattern has been played by buckethead as a standard shred phrase ev er since paul taught him 20 years ago!
snyggman 2 years ago
Yeah, I was just clarifying. I don't do drugs, but I don't care if other people want to do them.
MimicDaravon 2 years ago
He doesn't do drugs and he's a really energetic person, which you'd have to be to be able to play as fast as he does.
Deddinsyde 2 years ago
He definitely can play, and not just fast but also musically. Someone needs to make him eat more though.

He repeats the same thing 394389 times, if he didn't do that, he'd be my idol.

beautiful guitar :)
jewtastic71 2 years ago
Yeah it is a beautiful guitar, but at $9000-$10000 dollars I don't think I'll be getting one soon. Why couldn't Ibanez just put these out and have them priced near a normal iceman? They always have to do limited runs and raise the price to outrageous proportions. $9000 dollars for a reverse Iceman?

The shavings of the Korina wood that they use for the guitar are actually poisonous. Because of this it has to be manufactured in a separate factory. Higher overheads = much higher retail price :( Gutted, they sound SO good!!! Saw him play one last Dec, I was about 4 meters away. What a tone!!

This video makes him look like he has a huge noise...
TravisSimpson 2 years ago
That's because he does have a huge nose. There's another video of him on here from an old music video he did that really accentuates its size, and lots of people comment about it. I think it's where he gets most of his tone. Kidding, but it is huge.
