I wasnt saying that, I was saying that the whole upstoke thing was mainly gilberts idea. bucket was 13 when he listened to gilbert (17) just because it wasnt released doesnt mean that it wasnt made before bucket. all im sayin is that gilbert helped bucket get his echo skills a little bit farther all im saying. upstroking sounds alot cleaner than downstroking echo songs youd know if u were a guitarist (which u r)
he learned how to upstroke like that from paul gilbert, because when paul first started playing guitar he explained in a training video. that he thought you could only strum up for the 2 years he started playing. so he became really really good at it. so when paul taught bucket some tricks he caught on pretty fast. and learned how to use it with nice effects. And establish some creative songs
you've been playing for 6 years?? i admit that precision in upstrokes is hard but i've been playing for a little more than a year now and i don't find it "a bitch" to pick upwards periodically. seriously.
Its not ungodly hard but it is alot easier to do just up or down strokes when your first starting out on guitar.You get into the habit of economy/alternate,ect picking and its more difficult to change your primary style even for a short period of time.
Exactly! That's what a lot of people don't notice at first is that part of the sound is make by all upstrokes and that is why Buckethead pwns so much ass. I've tried this shit with upstrokes and I will tell you, I've been playing guitar for 6 years and that is a bitch.
wkd!! i really wanna go see him live, but i doubt it'll ever happen. And its really nice of him to say "thanks" to his fans by giving them toys at his shows. He seems such a kl guy!!
I think it sounds awesome on his solo when he does the breakdance and then breaks out into the song, it's awesome gotta hear it or yea by the way.....100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000/5
this song is not meant to be hard, for those of you idiots out there that think this is Buckethead's hard licks. Listen to him improvise and shred for a whole concert without slowing down and then you will know what's hard.
This song fucking rocks and music doesn't have to be a certain difficulty to be good, as long as it sounds good.
Guys just type in 'buckethead shred' for the whole video..

@Killzor420 Actually the "sad" truth is that, Paul only gave Buck 2 or 3 lessons.

Not true at all... Gilbert released a song with delay a lot of years later than Buckethead.

He is upstroking eighth notes with a delay on.

there is only slight delay and reverb. close to a 1/16 or so delay i think. and all up picking. its very difficult to play.

Well, its constant up-picking, but other than that this lick is nothing difficult to do.
But how about creating these kind of licks? Its a really tough job to come up with things like these.
