Eudaimonia Overture - Paul Gilbert - Cover By Patrick A.

[andyrosebrook]

Great cover. I've been trying to learn it over the past year and know how difficult it was to get that down! The end part is the tricky bit, you nailed it. I gotta get back to practicing, thanks for the inspiration! I think this is one of Paul's best songs, Olympic has some great varied parts too.

[PatVsGodzilla]

@andyrosebrook thanks dude, best of luck!

[andyrosebrook]

@PatVsGodzilla The break where you play the cleaner chords in a little bit of an odd time signature, I had been struggling to learn that. Watching you play it, picked it right up, thx! I think you also helped me figure out the tapping part to I Cannot Tell a Lie, YouTube is so awesome for learning guitar.

[PatVsGodzilla]

@andyrosebrook i'm glad i could help!

[OneManPants13]

4:41 and pause. nuff said haha

[akira1969age]

The sound in which it ..brilliant performance.. has it is a wonderful, nice play.

[TheInvalidChronicles]

Wow I'm working on this piece to I just can't get the darn Bach ending down :(((( amazing loved every second of this

[rafaelkargov]

Nice tone, playing and guitar ! I'm amazed.

[Kamgtr]

Flawless cover!

Wow.

I learned about 50% of this song by ear for a few days. Now I'm stuck. May I please know how you learned this? By tabs? By video?

If so, where can I find full tabs.

Thanks

[PatVsGodzilla]

@Kamgtr check out a program called "amazing slow downer", it'll help find the difficult bits by slowing them down as much as you need. thanks!

[strozatrastes]

!!!Impresionante!!!.. Precisión, sonido, tono y ejecución... y me encanta la telecaster (richie Kotzen)... !!!enhorabuena!!!.

[xFusionlClutchPS3]

That was flawless.<3

[NicVsGodzilla93]

Great cover man!!!! you are awesome!!! can you post the library that you used on guitar rig?

[guitaralmond]

Fantastic, keep it up!

[RicardoDiazHimself]

its a kotzen right? I was gonna buy that guitar but got an american deluxe instead :p beautiful axe's

[PatVsGodzilla]

@RicardoDiazHimself it is. don't know how the deluxe sounds but i think they're two completly different guitars (pickups etc.)

[RicardoDiazHimself]

@PatVsGodzilla yeah i know, well the deluxe has a smaller rounder neck i guess, and the wiring configuration is the same but with different pickups. matter of preferences but the 2 are awsome guitars.

btw your take on this gilbert track is really good! cheers!

[uidsea]

At first I was like "He needs to rock out." At the end I was impressed.

[PatVsGodzilla]

@uidsea thanks!

[spray32]

The Bach excerpt was just perfect.

Congratulations :)

[PatVsGodzilla]

@spray32 cheers :)

[1101PaulLee]

good job



[m3erZone]

omg that was a very2 good cover. considering youre using a tele and still got this kind of sound that was very nice. what pickups you put on your telecaster sir?

[PatVsGodzilla]

@m3erZone dimarzio chopper & twang king, thanks!

[gzi95]

[R4Snowboarding]

[PatVsGodzilla]

Nice greets

Uli

[torpinouch71]

realy nice cover man ( lol paul gilbert twin ^.^ )

[kiloch]

This is brilliant. The only thing I dislike about this video is that it makes me wanna buy a telecaster, and Ive got plenty guitars as it is.

[BashYouLongtime]

Fantastic!!!!! LOVE that guitar, too. Tone was pretty spot on, too.

[BreakingBenniBoyA7x]

wow your an amazing player!! great cover ...

i hope i'll get there, too

[TheTeep123]

Hey. This is probably the best cover of this song ive seen. sounds just like the original. also you looked like you really enjoyed playing. keep up the good work. unfortunate about there being no tabs though. Well done!!!

[PatVsGodzilla]

@TheTeep123 thanks dude and i probably said it before but it's better to use your ears rather than tabs, that'll make you a better musician no matter what! ;)

[therealpsp1mp]

TEACH ME.

[slashnoob]

paul gilbert twin..

[Colerosity]

You may as well be Paul's younger brother.

[PatVsGodzilla]

@Colerosity who told you?? ;)

[IbanezPGM300]

@Colerosity Yeah man! I agree with you :DDD

[IbanezPGM300]

@Colerosity Yeah man!

I agree with you,He really looks like a PG:DDD

[TheLowerCaseJ]

Epic

[lowyaw]

[PatVsGodzilla]

@lowyaw no tabs sorry, i used my ears and checked out fingerings by watching Paul's videos

[lowyaw]

@PatVsGodzilla

[ConnorShawMusic]

great playing

[PatVsGodzilla]

thanks

[AirHendrix91]

Oh yeah, you wear your strap high too like me :) I love the reach you get with a high strapped guitar. Otherwise, you can't reach a distance of 5 or 6 frets without putting your thumb behind the neck.

What model of a Tele is that?

[nikko95]

Hi Pat Ca fait un baille

It's been a while since ur last post!

What are u working on?

Please don't stay remote from ur guitars or they could fade away!

Cheers!

[PatVsGodzilla]

i'm currently recording and mixing songs for a new full band project. i will probably record a video for one of the songs as soon as the mixing process is done!

[nikko95]

It sounds like you're having some good time!

Don't forget us on youtube

We want the full band video!

The whole crew lol

[AirHendrix91]

Geez, you're one of the only shredders that I've seen on Youtube that puts their soul into their music.

You're friggin great man. You inspire me so much!

[PatVsGodzilla]

that's a great compliment, thank you very much!

[AirHendrix91]

Love the Tele, man. Beautiful neck too :D.

[strats4ever321]
