Paul Gilbert - Scarified

[ShredMyESPMan]

Actually, it requires it a bit. A lot of the kids I gave lessons to didn't understand what playing in the key of "G" or "A" stood for until I taught them about proper key signature and the notes on the fretboard. We're not all born with musical knowledge. Neither were you CarvinSucks so take it easy on people's mistakes. As for your smart asses talking shit remark, I didn't quite understand what you meant.

[jasonbecklegend]

Fucking Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[scwalts]

@mike86325 I have to say the camera work and sound are awesome...you rule

[ShredMyESPMan]

It's called Scarified because when you try to learn this song, all the shredding makes you shit your pants.

[SuperCamineros]

@ShredMyESPMan I guess more string skipping & sweeping rather than shredding

[ShredMyESPMan]

@SuperCamineros String skipping, yes. He does more arpeggios rather than sweeps. If he was doing sweeps it would be way easier.

[omega052397]

My pinky isn't even half that long......

[Daemon3589]

@omega052397 haha ya dude my pinky is like, half the length of my middle finger. hes a freak, but thank god he is lol

[TeJoshta]

[AxlMurderer666]

@TeJoshta omg! D:

[nikklazz]

Fuck I would love to see something like this and really be there....wow.

Like a clinic with both Paul and Billy...that would be so cool

[paulmariani1976]

when Paul dies, he should donate his body to scientific research..shit, he may not even be human :-)

[CarvinSucks]

The playing with his teeth part about half way through made me laugh.

[AstriBlair]

That "Yes!" kills me everytime I hear it..xD

[rataafalava]

@AstriBlair lol, ikr...



[stillAfreak2008]

@AstriBlair YOU ARE SO FU***G RIGHT. Paul is the best Guitarrero for me !!!

Jesus..... his feeling is AMAZING !!!!

[derHuckepackmann]

my computer is too slow for gilberts playing! the video lacks all the time xD 

[callofgears91]

his fingers are obscenely long, they look like a spider on the frets... a rocking spider

[NickW0608]

welll i guess i don't know how to play guitar...

[RCCola339]

That slow section gave me goosebumps

[GuitarsAreMagic]

listen to that geek... "yes"

[fender210]

i thought i can learn this song from that angle, but all i can see is a blur!

[jobless205]

wow.

[omfg738]

"I'll do my best to play it well with my ibanez guitar'.....* PWNS FRETBOARD*

[beardlessjoebae]

"im gonna do my best to play it well" my ass he fucking tore that song another asshole with his teeth

[chrismolin]

HIS HAND IS A TARANTULA!!!

[jarkanciofan]

Y ave donde esta slash!? xD

[m14k15ts29]

I like the part from 0:00 - 3:26

[MrTornadoofsouls]

@m14k15ts29 LOL men you're soooo funny, amazing joke, congratulations!!!!

[MarytheVirginband]

He makes it look so daamm easy! :D

[randyward1985]

I play guitar and i kill all guitar heros on expert!!! TTFATF, and even all the megadeth and hardest on warriors of rock

[H057IL3]

A great song to practice for those who want to become half as good as Paul Himself.

[qyasser]

"its in F# and uhhh lets see what else can i tell you about this one..hmmm oh yes, uhh when i play this song, people die..........ENJOY :D."

[randommoosebrains]

@qyasser WORLD DOMINATION MODE

[ShredMyESPMan]

@qyasser Eb/F#, Finally, someone who actually studied music theory.

[CarvinSucks]

@ShredMyESPMan Lol, F# is Gb smart one.

[ShredMyESPMan]

@CarvinSucks Oh my fucking bad oh musically educated one. I believe it was a fucking typo as you notice, the F is right next to the D sir.

[CarvinSucks]

@ShredMyESPMan I believe you mean G. You're two for two on the typos lmao.

[ShredMyESPMan]

@CarvinSucks Lol? Eb=D# how does G=Eb? You're retarded man.

[CarvinSucks]

@ShredMyESPMan I wasn't talking about Eb. I was talking about F#. But yes, Eb is D#, good job, this isn't exactly something that you need to "study" music theory for. As for smart asses talking shit, you're just as guiltly as I am lmao.

[ShredMyESPMan]

@CarvinSucks Find something better to do than to talk crap to somebodies typos man. Paul Gilbert is amazing and the last thing we need is someone little smart ass talking shit.

[dkellenbox]

awesome....pure awesome

[WakeUpAdik]

I wish i could play like Paul!!

His pinky is as long as my middle finger!!

[guitarplayrRJ]

He has the pinky of god. 

[ToTaLChaotic]

I bet he's good at guitar hero...

[kibijit]

@ToTaLChaotic

Fact: Guitarists suck at guitar hero. All of us do.

[jamesroxursox]

@kibijit I play guitar and i can play most songs on expert?

[megamattlolz]

@kibijit and who the fuck are you? I play guitar and suck at guitar hero, but who made you fucking know-all of guitarists? Fact: kibijit knows fuck all.

[kibijit]

@megamattlolz You've completely lost me there. o_O

Correct me where I'm wrong, but you just insulted me only to agree with me.

[Diffle]

@megamattlolz I play guitar and suck at Guitar Hero.

[megamattlolz]

@Diffle I also play guitar and suck at GH, that's not my point. My point was that people play guitar and are also good at GH, so who the fuck was that guy to think that he could represent all guitarists everywhere.

[bmxlvlife]

@kibijit agreed

[InmateSpeedDemon]

@troglo9080- where can i buy some awesomeness, I really need about 180 pounds of it!

[NALRAMOREG]

That is some sick shit!!!!

[bodomlad]

his pinky finger is another hand....

[futurama9000]

this song HAS to be my favorite, but if you're a big Racer X/Paul Gilbert fan, you'll notice that he's changed it since the 1987 version, which I prefer! Even though any version he does is orGASmic! I learned the 1987 Scarified, which has a better solo and I believe is in the key of E instead of F#.

[jonoisgood]

I am scarified of this becoming a Guitar Hero track and never being able to finish it

[nochi143]

Paul Gilbert, Simply the BEST.

[xXTiberiusXx]

yeah i'll just try my best

*does better than studio version

[TheFireball100]

swwwweeeeet!

[ahchouch]

Someone know What effect do he use in this song ???

[troglo9080]

@ahchouch Sorry to tell you but he uses pure awesomeness

[partyongarth420]

funy thing aobut his songs is the titles.. scarified! imagine telling someone that.. theyde probably think u listented to some really gay shit like bullet for my valentine.. thats whats cool about paul hes good and very humble hes a joking around non serious kinda guy

[RARECANDYBAR]

Open your ears and your mind will follow!!

[YoruTaro]

@RARECANDYBAR

Well if you open your ears, I don't think your mind will follow.  It'll get blown away from the sheer awesomeness that is Paul Gilbert.

[FizzOfInsanity]

5 people got Scarified.

[SuperToother]

@FizzOfInsanity hey me too and i fuckin love this man and his genius hands

[lomax333]

@FizzOfInsanity you suck!!!!!!

[FizzOfInsanity]

@lomax333 Yes I am cooler than you. Thanks for noticing by the way.

[lomax333]

@FizzOfInsanity i just get annoyed when people use the title of the video and say and the number of dislikes and say some stupid shit like "5 people got scarified"

[adammadison30]

@lomax333 I just get annoyed when people say stupid comments to bring others down. so so annoying.

[FizzOfInsanity]

@lomax333 I...really don't care for your thoughts...Paul Gilbert FTW!!!

[lomax333]

@FizzOfInsanity okey dokey lol

ps: when somethings over a month old you should just leave it alone.........

[adammadison30]

@lomax333 YOu should just leave others alone. i dont see the need in being a rude to others.

[lomax333]

@adammadison30 dude im not even caring about this anymore........ and i dont need life lessons from some person i dont know on youtube.... no disrespect intended... and i wasnt saying he was a bad or stupid person, i simply didnt like the comment. and on that note leave me the fuck alone!!!!!!

[adammadison30]

@lomax333 Sounds good.

[FatherStarr]

Paul shouldn't have small crowds :(

[Dagh1]

@FatherStarr It's a guitar clinic, I'm sure he chose to be there.

[ADudOverTheFence1]

@Halocon WTF Jimi Henderix as first? Page as second? MAN, THOSE GUYS ARE FROM THE 60s AND 70's, technique, everything has changed in guitar playing, I know there are hundreds of polls say that they are the greatest but WAKE UP! THEY ARE WAY TOO OLD, ALMOST EVERUBODY NOW ARE BETTER THAN THEY, I know they changed the way to play guitar, but seriusly, they are too old and many has passed them, some by LIGHT YEARS

[nomis101uk]

@ADudOverTheFence1

Because its not all about technique. Not even close. There's fuck loads of guitarists on YouTube with mind-bending technique but no one gives a shit cos they're not musically talented. And it makes no sense to disregard what these earlier guitarists did to advanced the instrument and it's music. Its like saying that, because I know more than Newton about the universe, that I must be smarter than Newton; or that I'm a better scientist. It just doesn't work like that.

[ADudOverTheFence1]

@nomis101uk So right, dear friend!, thanks for correcting me :{D

[6786449411]

serious arthritus ten years from now lol my hands would be cramped like hell trying to play this lol, amzing tho bro . MANY thumbs up

[ReebHound]

@Halocon You can shut the rfuck up to, your calling me immature? Then your 2x as immature as i am, do the math

1 Ignorant racist, + Laughs at dead people +brags about getting "pussy" which probably means he fucked a cat + me (as you say an immature kid) = Halocon is as mature as a 6 year old.

[ReebHound]

@Halocon hahahahah, its acually funny when people write HHAHAHAHAHA after their own comebacks, cuz yuh know, that makes their joke funny.... it actaully makes u seem like a huge b-bag HAHAHAHAHAH

[ShredableGuitar]

What the fuck? A7x vs Paul? What the hell is going on here. I love a7x, they're my favorite band of all times and Synyster gates is a very skilled guitarist as well. But as a guitar player I can see past all the fan boy bullshit and just say that Paul is another plane of existence compared to Synyster gates, there's no comparison. Paul is a virtuoso, Syn is far from it. I even have a few covers of a7x solos on my channel for anyone that cares.

Anywyas, this video is crazy, paul <3

[ReebHound]

@Halocon HAHAHAAHA funny man, talk shit on youtube, but u dont have the nutjuice to say it to people in person, your such a pussy bitch, go back to eating cheezeys off your stomach u waste of life

[iEddiez94]

i just jizzed

[JavierEHW]

PAUL GILBERT ... YOU RULE!!!!

[honkiemarge]

The double kick makes my walls and eyes shake!

[RazorEd11]

Does anyone else feel the need to hit the guy who keeps going "Yessss"?

[rockmanX117]

@RazorEd11 unless its captain falcon

[bigkeith999]

yes 0:37

[MotoGPLegend]

i think Paul's left hand did the role of the big spider in Arachnophobia! : ) Paul's just too damn badass a living legend admits the world of supreme guitarist

[ThatTallWhiteGuy]

oh man, when was this? why did i miss this? he was in my town and i had no clue

GAH!

[prankovalero]

Heh heh, he didn't screw up after 2:00, after the picking-with-his-teeth part. He had screwed up once before...

[PGManiac]

He only screw up once to makes us believe that he is a human not a God..

[ConceptNull]

great!

[MaddSkillz08]

Bow down to the God that is Paul Gilbert

[drook666]

Paul is the shit.

[mijone005]

it is IMPOSSIBLE to overrate Paul Gilbert

[colyzee]

Damn, hes good

[MotoGPLegend]

god damn banana hands on that guy!! paul can probably press the 1st fret on the e string with his index and the 12th fret with his pinkie, it looks so easy when he plays it but its the complete opposite when i play it, sad how the jonas brothers get more hits than a true master of the guitar like Paul the incredible Gilbert

[lovepuremetal5]

ok the ending solo is just impossible for me to learn cuz i aint got damn long fingers to do those giant stretches. Paul Gilbert is a gifted player; born to play guitar!

[gloryamen325]

i love the quality. very good video. keep on uploading.

[25jonathan]

WE ARE NOT WORTHY!!!

[TheInvalidChronicles]

nice! does paul live in cali right now or japan?

[NukeTheCrossXPT700]

Damn you Paul and your pinky that's longer than my middle finger..... You beast, I love you. Haha. 

[mrzedlyt]

Scary rubber pinky

[switch0123]

can anyone tell me the tuning of this song " ?

[pfarina]

@switch0123

Tuning in E, song in F#

[switch0123]

@pfarina in standard E ok . thank you

[slakker321]

FUCK MAINSTREAMM MUSIC . GOO PAULL GILLBERTT!

[chop9suey]

This was in concord!?! Thats 15mins from my house!

[stratonut]

Fuck mtv or tv and for that matter youtube! Go see him live and if you do go to a live Gilbert show bring a roll of toilet paper and a extra pair of underoos , because you will shit yourself!

[bigpmc]

Paul Gilbert is the shit. Best guitarist there is

[TheJeffum]

u know what fascinates me. on his picking hand, he doesnt rest his pinky on the guitar while he picks like i do. prob cuz im lazy idk. ne way ive got this song down but its not polished. man it hurts to play it.

[FlawlessLabour]

He has the biggest pinky ever :'( I'm so jealous!

[kpw528]

@FlawlessLabour nope, buckethead has the biggest pinky. google "buckethead unmasked newspaper" w/o the quotes and click images.

[turkey1605]

@kpw528 That's not his REAL pinky! It's an extension thingy! :D

[speaker3600]

Scarified! Yes! YES!

[johnnykillspeople]

wen tema la lleba paul gilbert de daniel y de juano!!!

[xxxpersonnxxx]

God on Earth !!!

[GoatMT]

What does F sharp mean like F drop F tuning or something

[fatyummy13]

@GoatMT Learn your notes dude!

[mrdantastic]

@GoatMT

Means its in the key of F#.

Has nothing to do with tuning.

For example, you'll notice in the main riff of the song, the bass note is 2nd fret low e string, which in standard tuning is F# :)

[GoatMT]

What does F sharp mean like F drop F tuning or something

[RedSkyWhisper]

@GoatMT It means that the key of the song is in F sharp, not the tuning.

[AstriBlair]

Hes Inhuman..Get the pop crap out of the billboards,they need to see Paul.

[trp6senile]

The "YES!" guy kills me :P

[ys7b]

hes not a hunam!!!!

no guitar player in the world can think of someshing so amazing!!

[Losingsight420]

haha gotta love "ill do my best to play with my ibanez guitar".....ur not human soon. damn right im scarified afraid hes gonna just start levatating away between 2:00 - 2:20

[Emil315]

I love how this guy has complete and utter control of the guitar, for example, he picks out only a few notes to palm mute in his fast minor runs. He has some of the best techniques I've ever seen.

[25jonathan]

omfg the last bit from 3:04 . psycho hand movements and with the shadows from the fingers across the the fretboard it looks CRAZY. guitargod!

[imxthexonlyxAaron]

1:17 best part

[SomeDudeThatRants]

I've been trying to play this song for 2 years!

My Fingers Defy Me!

[DietGrape]

@SomeDudeThatRants did u learn it yet? it took me like a month but i practice like 10 hours a day.

[samueldl722]

@SomeDudeThatRants don't worry dude...:) you'll get there someday.....just practice very very hard...:D

[snoognz]

I'd be happy if I could just play the main riff perfect! I have a hard time stretching my fingers for the 5-7-9 runs on the first two strings. It sounds muddled then I get the 6-7-9 on the D string perfect lol.

[felphero]

man his pinky is the same size as his ring finger that's way his stuff are so hard to play

[Anzvillan]

@felphero

he was born to play godly music :)

[Grenendel]

give me everything and his guitar

[maciekg16kutno]

God! Please, give me those hands!!!

[TheInvalidChronicles]

no just give me him hahaha :D

[partyongarth420]

man, this song looks so damn hard to play.. i think i could play viking kong after some months... i dont know about this song.. this would take me years and a few guitars ide smash my face on before i got it lol... paul has power and hits big finger stretches,.,and like how does he tap that good. lol same thing with vai that guy can tap anything

[Rowanb1234]

you know it is hard, but he makes it look easy somehow!
