Paul Gilbert - Take Cover Demonstration in HQ (Mr Big)

[Roguestandards]

Mind = blown

[MrEdongzki]

it sounds so easy to play..but its not as easy as you may think..the picking technique is crazy,it will take you time to get a feel of it..

[fugazivicarious1]

@MrEdongzki Yeah in a interview of Young Guitar magazine from Japan, i remember even Richie was surprised when he knew how paul played this song.

[PROGNUT777]

I love his playing - he still amazes me !!

Crazy Skipping

Dat Flying V guitar.....

[TheInvalidChronicles]

i wish paul was my dad

[Simonemoni]

@TheInvalidChronicles And I wish Paul was my children's Dad ;D

[FilitosCDM]

HOW DID HE GET THAT SOUND !? AAAAAAAAA

[CavemanJesus4Life]

I hate how he makes it so simple that even this Caveman cant do it!!!!

[Vash027]

anyone have tabs for the verse??

[YummyBananaFish]

@Vash027 11th fret on the D and G strings. B and high E open. The picking is easy to work out from there.

Also, I already commented this like, half a page down... so read next time!

PAUL IS SO COOL IN THIS VIDEO!! LONG HAIR!!!

[Nauticusss]

I really can't get how he's playing the darn verse! I have 2 versions of my own and now this. Is there really a muted F# I hear in this E, C#, B, E, (F#), E, C#, B etc. or it's just my ears trying to complete the lick for themselves XD

[musiccalgary]

@Nauticusss I hear you. Paul is the king of impossible-to-emulate-100%-per­fectly riffs that seem so simple you want to bang your head against a wall. Even Kotzen failed at getting this one perfect, and THAT'S saying something -- Kotzen is a genuine god of guitar. Long live Paul Gilbert.

[YummyBananaFish]

@Nauticusss Old comment to reply to sorry! But it's a really simple lick. D and G strings 11th fret, B and E open. It's just sorting out the picking after that... hehe

[Nauticusss]

@YummyBananaFish Yeah, I figured it out already. And doing the picking up to tempo is a completely another story hah. I noticed on the live version at Budokan in 2009 he's playing it in lazy mode lol

[YummyBananaFish]

@Nauticusss yeah I saw that too. Paul can do as he likes I guess, but the accents sounded quite different to me. Nowhere near as chunky!

[x7stringinJSCx]

classic. such a good song
