You ever notice guys that look really nerdy in high school tend to not age and look progressively cooler as the years go on? like Mr. Gilbert? Petrucci? Satch? And instead of partying, doing drugs, and chasing girls, they spent their entire youth locked inside practicing so now they get to spend the rest of their lives being awesome and enjoying the skills they harnessed for the last 20 years. Dedication is a beautiful thing.
@Brentypooz in the Down To Mexico video thingy he did a mariachi band introduces him with the phrase "PABLOO GILBERTOOO!!" then paul shreds the shit out of his guitar
Muscle memory is a truly amazing thing. The body is programmed to do amazingly complex tasks with great precision, and once a degree of muscle memory has been established it becomes instinctive. However, if you make even minor changes in the sequencing, rhythm, or tempo it goes right out the window. You can see that here as he actually has to search for the right chords when he slows down for the lesson. He has to familiarize himself again by playing it in familiar rhythm (but lower tempo)
I liked the look of the Iceman but the Fireman is a gorgeous piece, loving the single coils, ps the middle coil pickup, gives out an AMAZING clean sound.Love that dang riff
This remember me the main riff of Radiator, Paul's song.

Randy Rhoads used a similar idea on 'Steal away the night' on the Blizzard of Ozz album

When I first saw that he was losing the trem a couple years ago, I was like "NOO! His riffs won't be as cool!" but luckily, I was wrong.

Could we have maybe 5 or 1,000 more albums like "Fuzz Universe" Paul? I mean, Mr. Gilbert? Pretty please??!?

I love how excited and visibly happy he gets every time he talks about guitar or explains one of his riffs

This riff reminds me of Randy Rhoads part on "Steal Away" from Blizzard. I got Fuzz Universe for Xmas and can't stop listening to it. Every day.

After 20 years of great tones, he's got it even better now. Pretty much perfect sound for him, damn dreamlike!
