  • I don't find anything hard about this other than my ibanez RGT42 is mushy and not defined , I'm usin an RP350 , I understand the signature lick.

    I'm speakin of the opening rythem parts of this which are very simular to mr.scary

    I have no idea how paul cleans up the low end mush , I've tried just about everthing but a bulldozer.

  • 0:41

    Paul Gilbert, the pimp.

  • That's all good but tassles are still way gay.

  • 2:09 does that guitar on market?i gotta buy it

  • @amierbassripper it is an ibanez pgm 300 /301. it will set you back about 2000 english pounds :)

  • @TheWombatWarlord thanks man

  • what is the name of his guitar? is he using an esp guitar? it's does sound so japanese

  • @werdof he is using ibanez guitars and have own series of them :) Ibanez PGM

  • @4NKKA nice to know ,thanks man (:

  • from 2:00 onwards the chord progression and feel is exactly like pink floyd's comfortably numb

  • lol guitar tassels at 2:00

  • paul gilbert was on MTV?? i doubt that. MTV isnt THAT cool

  • @MariosGuy they used to be cool.but that was a looooong time ago..

  • I noticed that the ending solo has the same chord progression as Comfortably Numb, interesting touch!

  • He really needs to play that fast?

  • @diazconias

    Its metal, where one of the most power mediums of music comes from speed and showmanship. Paul is regarded as the best because he is not only lightning fast but also very musical at the same time.

  • metal dog

  • Comment removed

  • At first I thought, "Oh, this is from the 80s, maybe early nineties", until I heard Metal Dog (Tecnical Difficulties), which was released in 1999.

  • @H057IL3 this song, metal dog, was written in early nineties so you were right.. :) technical difficulties, the "updated version" of metal dog, was written in late nineties and released '99 :)

  • @tomppalie Ha! Didn't know that, thanks.

  • pual gilberts terrifying guitar trip sounds like a sitcom

    but it it was it would be one hell of a sitcom

  • @00ASSASSINATION

    You have just come up with the best show ever.

  • nice, the way he harmonized the melody at the beginning was incredible- Bravo mr Paul Gilbert!

  • If his pinkys 6 inches how big is his fucking dick

  • @felttoaster it's probably large enough to make shaquille o'neal's snake look like a baby penis.

  • FUCK!

  • The harmonies make me believe in Christ

  • 2:03 Loool, what kind of thing they put in that guitar? anyway it looks awesome

  • @TheRaven0us; It's fringe.

  • Yo thats some bullshit, they aired one of the best guitarists ever to shred on mtv in the 80s, and all my high school watches and listens to is JB and gaga and miley cyrus and shit. Ima try and get this shit back on mtv in like 10 years im goin to cali, and recording some metal instrumentals and covers and then im going to start an entreprenuership and make get rich then ima make sure my shit and various artists gets aired, fuck yall bitches im comin in.

  • @ryanskillz44

    Yeah MTV sucks ass now. but this video wasn't from the 80's, the absolute earliest it could have been was 99, cause that's when this album came out. so that wasn't too long ago that MTV actually aired good shit

  • @ryanskillz44 um good luck?

  • @ryanskillz44 lmfao

  • myyy herrrroooo <3

  • Hahaha comfortably numb accompaniment from 2:00

  • The only man who can play a duet with Paul Gilbert...is Paul Gilbert.

  • @Andrew45stavr

    Or Marty Friedman, but he doesn't count.

  • @Andrew45stavr no one else can match paul in a duet. that's why paul does it himself

  • HAHAHA THAT IS THE MOST RIDICULOUS GUITAR EVER!!! only paul gilbert could rock that man anyone else would probably be blown away by its awesomeness

  • does anyone have this version's mp3?

  • @panamanian911 its racer x, you can find it in alot of places

  • @123vaw123 i meant this version, with the harmonized part right before the solo.

  • Es un genio.

  • God gave this man an amazing talent

    this guitar trip was indeed terrifying!

  • my dick just just whent back in to by body and out my butthole

  • is it just me or is his pinky his longest finger?

  • 0:41 LMFAO XDDDDD he looks like Stevie Ray Vaughn on crack!!!!!!!

  • guitarists nowa days could never play like this

  • @GuitarCoversLessons don't try to discourage people like me man...

  • @panamanian911 hey man im just sayin and im right there i only wish i was this musicaly talented but think about it how many famous guitarists(recent) can actually play like this

  • @TheEvilution666 well said sir very well said

  • cool vid the slow part at the end of the song sounds like the lead break from pink floyd's comfortably numb but with someone shredding all over it .......man can this guy pick every note or what.....

  • @lefty99riffs

    its because its the same chord progression :)

  • @pabcq I just heard that part it sounded like Floyd and thought it was cool he was shredding over a pink floyd type jam...

  • @lefty99riffs

    yeah its rly cool :)

  • You know, I just remembered something. Paganini also had abnormally long fingers as well.  Not too many people knew that Paganini played guitar as well. So it's looks like Paul Gilbert has those long fingers as well, and it explains his pinky.

  • Dimebag Darrell vinnie moore paul gilbert chris boderick and mr.batio are my favorite guitarst of all time

  • @xMETALHEADx124 minus batio IMO

  • Mista Buckheadz mentor!

  • senor pablo hahahaha

  • when you can play the guightar like that. you can tell what his emotions are inside when he is playing.paul gilbert shreds man.keep on Rock'n :)

  • the man is a monster of a player..

    awesome

  • That guitar is so amazingli nice! A special guitarist should have a special guitar just like Paul Gilbert!

  • A PGM300 with the trem cavity filled and a fixed bridge put on, so basically a PGM301.

  • @prydogga or a pgm 299 lol

  • 0:36 "APPLAUSE" ftw

  • i love that little part at the beginning where hes dressed like SRV !!!

  • cheers budd

  • man... what band is he in?

  • racer X

  • Well, he was in a few - Racer X and Mr Big are the best known, he does solo albums as well and recently did one with Freddie Nelson called 'United States'

  • mr. big

    racer x

    and solo guitarist

  • Racer x

  • пол очень хорош))

  • if he does super fast shredding on the guitar at 2:01.. i bet all those hanging threads will fall off clean n burnt to crips

  • w.t.f. paul gilberts is the best

  • Amazing 2:01 goosebumps

  • his songs are actually songs, they make sense, go somewhere, and aren't just vehicles for mindless sweeping. he's one of the most tasteful "shredders" there is. and he's goofy and humble. cheers paul gilbert

  • @MitchTenderness yea, he is pure shredder.

  • *but I found it quite soulfull

  • i fucking luved that - now i know why awsome players of our day look up to paul gilbert technical but it quite soulfull

  • my guitar teacher took lessons from him

  • Oh man, I'll bet he's an awesome teacher....you had better turn out really good ;)

  • Well, Buckethead turned out pretty good.

  • haha why have i heard that so many times. im not saying your teacher didnt ive just heard it a lot

  • idk. he didnt take a lot of lessons, just a few in california

  • lucky bastard ¬_¬ lol

  • Amazing!!!

    Its a guitar that doubles as a parade float!

  • that chord progression in the solo isn't that very similar to comfortably numb solo's progression?

  • this guy has the best picking technique in the world. ever. no question about it. he's probably one of the best player out there, maybe not the most popular but he is certainly one of the best

  • Actually, a lot of Paul's playing is more legato-oriented rather than just straight picking.

  • yeah, but when he does picking stuff there is no doubt that his stuff is insane

  • Agreed.

  • Tassles on a guitar. That's so badass!!

    Jesus Paul, no obstacle is gonna fuckin stop you! Why don't you just play while someone is shooting at you? xD

  • that's flawless and i dont know whether that makes me wanna try harder on the guitar or just quit lol

  • I wish I came from the world where pinkys are 6 inches long also

  • lol

  • ...and where the guitars are decorated with some dodgy fabric ( 2:00 )

  • you wish you came from the world where cocks are 6 inches long newfag!

  • what?

  • @Beauthegreat1 doesn't it seem like most shredders have monster hands! i want them so bad...and massive dexterity doesn't hurt either

  • @Beauthegreat1 yea my pinky has problems reaching the 5th string sometimes during fast riffs. =(

  • the tassels on the guitar are so funny!

  • what song is that

  • this song is called: techincal difficulties (:

    paul gilbert rocks! hahaha!

  • its metal dog from technical dificulties

  • 2:01-3:39 rythem sounds like comfortably numb

  • thats cause its the same thing

  • thats because it is comfortably numb

  • i love that hairy PGM 300 xD..

  • If you look up the definition of Paul Gilbert it actually says...

    'An absolute bastard of a guitarist who will ALWAYS be better than you.....and probably god...'

  • new technique 'mushroom slide' vid on my channel..

  • white guitar is my fave when he shreds :D but the dueling is pretty sick as well wow 5 stars fo paul gilbert :D

  • tiene uno de los mejores atauques con pua!

  • 41 seconds.... gibson firebird?!?!

  • no shit sherlock.

  • well paul uses ibanez exclusively.....sherlock. so it seemed weird to me that he used one.....

  • Ibanez pre lawsuit copy

  • somebody can tell me what is this part 1:50 ?? is an another version

  • Black Dog

  • non its metal dog, black dog is a led zep song, this is also very similar to technical difficulties but with a different bridge and solo

  • ah thats right

    I get mixed up

    Yea I noticed..lol :P

  • this is metal dog, it was changed into technical difficulties a while after this was made

  • yeah i know mate, that was what i was telling fenderbender............

  • sorry, didnt mean to reply to you lol

  • lol thats k mate :)

  • Damn I love this DVD! Check out my channel for the complete DVD !

  • Whhhaaa...lol at 0:40 haha paul -.-''

  • my orchestra director grew up with the bassist from Racer X, he has mad skills

  • i shuk his hand not so long ago

  • if you were on ug you would know we have Grammar Nazis. im a not one however i think you will find it's spelt:

    Shook

  • WOW noobs and snappy comebacks go together like retards and electric fences.

  • ooh,u were correcting me. pardon me-I SHOOK his hand and your closest female relative's titty (correct me if i am wrong)

  • love the Johnny Winter impression right before the video starts!

  • yea lol

  • how the heck did he develop such long fingers?

  • Anyone else reminded of comfortably numb at the end solo bit? The bass line sounds very similar but then again it is a popular progression.

  • good catch dude

  • Paul Gilbert is the way.

  • Because he is that good at guitar, he can do whatever he wants to/with them and still have them look cool. Paul Gilbert is the man!

  • cause hes stuck in the 80's

    but it doesnt matter

    he could play a giant guitar shaped like a dick and still be awesome

  • LOL

  • The tassles keep his incredible energy forces contained, thereby saving the world from definite explosionation. You should thank him.

  • That my friend, is the best comment reply ive ever had the privilege of reading!

  • uh, because they're awesome. Actually, I think it's because he has a sense of humor.

  • Yeah I think it's a joke:P

  • Yea there his pimpin tassles! How he picks up babes LOL :D Nah justinsaneds probably right....... And Humanure22 ur dumb. If Paul Gilbert played with a dick guitar,.,,,, no it just wouldnt happen

  • sigh...

    so you are saying that if paul gilbert was playing a guitar shaped like a dick, you wouldn't like the music?

    Im not saying it would ever happen, im just saying paul is just that cool

  • im going to see him in 2 hours!

  • How did it go? was it good? what did he play?

  • Anyone knows where I can download this as an mp3?

  • limewire, its also known as metal dog

  • This isn't metal dog it's Technical Difficulties geez man it even says it is. Not trying to be an ass or anything.

  • Technical Difficulties has the same intro and rhythm as Metal Dog, and is the track he recorded on the Technical Difficulties.

    Metal Dog is the version he recorded for his Terrifying Guitar Trip Dvd, which was done 5 years before the Racer x version(2000).

    And not that I'm being an ass, but it doesn't say 'Technical Difficulties' on this video anywhere

  • Yeah not being an ass but it says it in the little gray box to the right! And I know my mistake.

  • Yeah, just seen that! D'oh!

    What an awesome video though

  • except in the video info over on the side

  • it does say that this song is metal dog on the video

  • Did you even bother to read all the comments I have put and the conversation I had with oldskool!?! Please show me where it says ANYTHING about metal dog in the video!! Can no one read or does no one one know what the fuck a description is?!? OK kids it is the the little gray box on the top right hand side of the screen where it says subscribe what the fuck does it say there please tell me!?!

  • man stop being so fuckin rude ur giving me a boner

  • the white guitar, is one of the ugliest guitar I've ever seen... but with any guitar, he can play kick ass solos...!!!

  • god on earth

  • you hypokonder!!! just kidding.. but hes one of the most complete musicians on the planet inside the gender of guitar.....(sorry for my bad english)

  • hypokonder? :|

  • hypokonder? :|

  • U R GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • oh yeah!!!!!!!!!!!

  • good luck playing as good as him

  • Ever heard of Marmite? Some people love it some people hate it. I'm a big Gilbert fan, he does use vibrato, perhaps not as much as a player like Gilmour or BB King, but thats because he's not Gilmour or BB King. And I'd love to see you do what Paul does.

  • If you don't like him so much, post a video of you doing better,or just shut up.

    I agree 100% with mastershake513. Gilbert's good, and can't be proven otherwise. You might not think he's the best, but he's not your average player.
