People who think they can tell the difference between this and someone who can't play doing a really good fake-job are suffering from a delusion. Melody is absolutely indispensable.
Why do this PG vs EVH shit? You know, they are way too different. Yeah, Paul's better at showing off and some of his blasing solos (I really can't call it "songs") are awesome - take "Echo Song" for instance. But what about catchy memorable riffs or just balls? Eddie can play simple stuff in the way, that tears your crotch apart. BTW, Paul's playing "Ain't Talking But Love' sometimes and seems to really enjoy it. So do I.
come on guys eddie knows his stuff his age now he may be slow But give him credit where its Due fellows he's been thru good,bad,terrible times he was born with a pick in his hand and making the MASTERPIECE of all time FRANKENSTRAT was born.in my book he'll never be Beaten at Music don't care what any of you say.you can e-mail me at dreamride98@yahoo.com replys are welcome
I just watched that after first seeing it in '92. Still makes me sick and laugh at the same time.
The problem as I see it with so many players is how seriously they take themselves.
Just look around on here at all the "serious" musicians - monster technique and no charisma. PG is pure fun and he can back it up and he's been doing that way for years.
@KellerDude4 I wouldn't say that. Paul gilbert got a lot of the shit he plays now from eddie. Eddie was before Paul gilbert and set the bar for many guitar players.
Yes but Paul Gilbert absolutely embarrasses EVH at guitar. They are both alive so there is no reason that EVH would not be around the same skill as PG so really Eddie isn't that good just taps a lot and is loved my shitty/new guitarists and Paul is a whole notch up on the musical scale. I understand what you mean, EVH did come before but that doesn't mean he is better. He is obviously worse
@KellerDude4 The thing is though, just because he's really good at speed picking doesn't mean he's better. Because all paul gilbert does is speed pick nowadays. EVH can do everything he can do.
@iKrackeD I don't know, man. Eddie can pick really fast but I've never seen him sweep or play those terrifying runs that Paul does. Don't get me wrong, I worship Eddie and prefer him over Paul, but I'd be surprised if he could do that stuff. Having said that, Paul could never come up with the Beat It solo in one take like Eddie did. Incredible.
@skrason Exactly what im saying, paul started with tapping and then tried to do it one handed. Tapping all started with EVH. They're both great guitar players, but Paul got a lot of what he knows by what EVH started
@KellerDude4 PG can play Eruption. Any teenager without a girlfriend and nothing but time can learn Eruption, these days. But he can't CREATE Eruption. Ergo, as awesome as Gilbert is, he can't hold a candle to Eddie. So, try again.
Are you retarded? That's like saying EVH couldn't create Scarified, Technical Difficulties, The Gargoyle, Eudaimonia Overture, because EVH couldn't!!! Have you even seen Eruption? It's simple A minor shit! No, PG would not hold a candle to EVH, he'd be a fucking volcano compared to him you idiot. EVH was great, yeah, but not anymore. The are many better guitarists. You are judging PG from one video and I'm sure you're some Van Halen loving nerd, so nice bias as well. Retard.
@KellerDude4 Wow, why so angry? Look, I LOVE Paul Gilbert. I saw him live at China Club in Chicago at a NAMM after party in 1988. I was under 21 so some roadies snuck me in. I wanted to see Paul Gilbert that bad. He was incredible. He made everything look so easy I was convinced I could go home and do it all myself. Hilarious because, of course, I couldn't. But I'm just saying, Paul can't write like Eddie. Eruption, Hear About It Later, Unchained. Yeah Ed's new stuff is terrible but I don't care
I can't believe you are actually comparing EVH's songwriting ability to PG's....
PG is many times better at making a memorable and emotional song, EVH was just the first to play fast in front of people, and Eruption has become immortal because of all the wannabe shredders that love it.
I would imagine so, but that is completely random. I'm sure Paul would probably never say these things about himself anyway since he is such a humble guy but it is most definitely true.
@KellerDude4 Obviously YOU don't know anything about guitar ,when you concentrate on both guitarist licks there actually quite similar in a way.It's kinda like saying that Bach was shit compared to Beethoven.You see shredding would basically be an under ground tool that nobody would really use in modern day music , thanks to Eddie shredding is greatly appreciated among most guitarist .But whoever compares music is fucking mental because music is for enjoyment not to compare.
@KellerDude4 Haha, you know EVH invented a lot of technichs including tapping, tapping harmonics, pinch harmonics, he also helped to create the floyd rose. And he completely changed the way people play the guitar, he invented fucking shredding. Don't belive me, PG is a huge fan of Eddie, if it wasnt for EVH he wouldn't even play the guitar ;)
He didn't "invent" tapping, NOR fucking pinches and tap harmonics ... Nice fail. And it doesn't matter how much he influenced other guitarists, he is still shitty compared to Paul Gilbert. I don't CARE if he was an influence, he is STILL WORSE, how difficult is that to grasp?
@KellerDude4 And why is Paul better? because he is faster? haha. I don't think the best player is the fastest, but the one who can create things, like songs that will live for ever, such as Hot for teacher, Panama, etc.
Hot for teacher?? What the fuck is special about either of the songs you just said? Hmmmm Silence followed by a deafening roar The Gargoyle Eudaimonia Overture even songs like Scarified? Way better to me, not for speed either. Eudaimonia Overture isnt even a fast song, it's not like Eddie is some writing god. Seriously, I can not stand Van Halen.
Holy Shit! So clean, People say that alot of distortion or overdrive compensates for bad playing, this dude manipulates the shit out of it! Sounds like he's playing through clean channel
@RGdood Because it is both of those things, If there was no melody it wouldn't sound like a solo..it'd just sound like he was picking at a muted string. The whole solo is based on harmony within a scale and thus melody.
@RGdood are you a moron? this is definetly musical. scientifically there is still lots of musical thought going on here. and the thing to remember is that you could definetly take these licks and scales and probably turn them into a real good song. shredding depends on how you use it. oh and how is it even possible to masturbate your guitar?
@fade617 indeed. and i could play basketball as well as lebron james.... with practice. but the amazing thing is that these people have actually put in the right amount of time practicing the right stuff.
@fade617 The thing is they did practice. We don't give them fame because we think they are superhuman, we give them fame because they are devoted and love what they do (hopefully they love it anyway) and spent their life getting good at it.
Seriously, I'm pretty sure you can't even play a solo + I'm prolly much, muuuch bigger than you, so go and cry a bit more over the internet you immature prick.
@aerosmith425 Yea sure, I'm not agressive at all, unlike you ;) That's why I have a gf and can actually play some cool shit on the guitar and you're a big ugly pimplefaced big mouth that talks shit but doesn't have a single vid of him playing guitar online?
Just shut up, I cba wasting time on dipshits like you, I've got songs to write.
@qdsqd are you still bitching you little pansy? and what the fuck does agression have to do with anything and your a fucking pussy your just talking shit cuz its youtube you would never open your mouth to me in real life you and last of all YOU SUCK DICK AT GUITAR ugly motherfucker mr guitar shirt who do you think you are you faget ass nice warlock really shows how good you are hahahahahhaha you dont know what music is pussy death metal sucks there im done with you drop your balls pussy
@aerosmith425 Yerr sure I suck at guitar, check the dates on the vids, it's from over 2 years old. I have lots of gigs with my band where I am the sologuitarist, have a beautiful girlfriend and have enough money to atleast buy 2 warlocks, an Ibanez Rs, Jackson V and a big ass amp to play my gigs with :)
So until you post a vid of you playing a better & faster solo than I do (which I highly doubt you're capable of) just fuck off uglyfaced child
@aerosmith425 For the 3rd time, I don't have any decent vids, I'm WAY too busy with bandpractices and writing songs or helping other bands out to make any vids.
@qdsqd Alright, first off don't come into a Gilbert video and start talking shit. Second, don't be flaunting your "guitar skillz d00d" like you are hot shit, I don't care if you are Yngwie, you are a cocky dick. Third, what the FUCK!? You are what's wrong with the world today, you cocky little man! Why don't you play music for music and stop talking about how "totally hawt" your girlfriend is and how much money you make. Wow, you have 2 Warlocks, what a fucking mistake you made!
@fadetoblack1290 first of all, faggot isn't the same as gay, try and learn some shit. Secondhand I did NOT fuckin come and talk shit on this vid, I just said it's the same damn lick Alexi played in his documentary, so try and get the shit out of your eyes and get it straight, lmao.
@qdsqd First of all, how is faggot not the same as gay? If you're going to go that far, gay isn't the same as homosexual, either. Second of all, I never said you talked shit ON THE VIDEO, so get that shit out of your eyes and get it straight, lmao.
@fadetoblack1290 Lmao, I'm not even going to discuss with a kid that doesn't even know the diffrence between Faggot and Gay, or even Gay and Homosexual. Goodbye have fun with your 2 shitvids
@qdsqd Ohh, the feeling of being put down and put into place in front of a ton of people hurts, doesn't it? Yes, you are an idiot. Why did you capitalize faggot, gay, and homosexual? Are they pronouns, or do you just hold them in high regard?
@fadetoblack1290 Not really, I have a beautiful girlfriend, I'm just not as stupid to use those pleonasms for the same meanings :) And err put into place or put down in front of a ton of people? If you didn't notice I'm a GUITARPLAYER, I play IN FRONT OF TONS OF PEOPLE every week, I'm not having a problem with whatever ammount of people you moron.
@qdsqd So, "And err put into place or put down in front of a ton of people? If you didn't notice I'm a GUITARPLAYER, I play IN FRONT OF TONS OF PEOPLE every week, I'm not having a problem with whatever ammount of people you moron." Sooo, you're saying that you are use to being put down because you play in front of people? So you suck? Teehee. MAN you make yourself look stupid.
He is the total ruler of the universe when it comes to acuracy combined with speed, but on his side is the fact that his fingers are 4ft long the lucky bastard
It's not so much the speed that blows me away (there are lots of guys who play fast), but what makes this guy different is that his technique remains so clean and flawless. It's like playing fast doesn't affect his chops one bit. Very impressive.
@hiladelphia Michael Romeo suck compared to Gilbert? I'll have to disagree with you there but I can understand Stump and Loomis to a degree. Regardless I was just listing shredders from the 90's because that one guy said that there were only shredders in the 80's.
the one thing i dont like about this video is you think youre actually starting to get good at guitar and then you watch this and you realize how far you still have to go to get a just a quarter as good as paul. but at the same time its kind of motivational
That's a custom model based on Ibanez's RG series from the late 80's
As far as know Ibanez never made a guitar with the mini-humbucker , or in that color, for sale to the public. Therefore it may not have a specific model #.
Paul Gilbert is sick!!!!!!! He is a sick mean dirty nasty guitarist....I wanna give up guitar playing now....forever...I wanna become a barber instead or work for pep boys. Whatever...this makes me wanna cry..
He'd make the dirtiest, shittiest pickups sound clean with his shredding :D

@qdsqd Ohh, the feeling of being put down and put into place in front of a ton of people hurts, doesn't it? Yes, you are an idiot. Why did you capitalize faggot, gay, and homosexual? Are they pronouns, or do you just hold them in high regard?
fadetoblack1290 1 year ago
@fadetoblack1290 Not really, I have a beautiful girlfriend, I'm just not as stupid to use those pleonasms for the same meanings :) And err put into place or put down in front of a ton of people? If you didn't notice I'm a GUITARPLAYER, I play IN FRONT OF TONS OF PEOPLE every week, I'm not having a problem with whatever ammount of people you moron.

If you didn't notice I'm a GUITARPLAYER, I play IN FRONT OF TONS OF PEOPLE every week, I'm not having a problem with whatever ammount of people you moron."

It's not so much the speed that blows me away (there are lots of guys who play fast), but what makes this guy different is that his technique remains so clean and flawless. It's like playing fast doesn't affect his chops one bit. Very impressive.

@hiladelphia Michael Romeo suck compared to Gilbert? I'll have to disagree with you there but I can understand Stump and Loomis to a degree. Regardless I was just listing shredders from the 90's because that one guy said that there were only shredders in the 80's.

the one thing i dont like about this video is you think youre actually starting to get good at guitar and then you watch this and you realize how far you still have to go to get a just a quarter as good as paul. but at the same time its kind of motivational

That's a custom model based on Ibanez's RG series from the late 80's
As far as know Ibanez never made a guitar with the mini-humbucker , or in that color, for sale to the public. Therefore it may not have a specific model #.
