Paul Gilbert Shred

[ElvisBluntman777]

What a talented skillful mfkr

[Janoline6]

I think those 16 people were expecting a Justin Beaver song!

[blakesguitartuition]

What guitar is

that?

[mattgresh1]

@blakesguitartuition Good question

[BrUSomania]

Pachelbel... of course. Everybody's played one of those :P

[dudefrombarrie]

..."you can really be musical with it"......if your fingers are 9" long. I got stuck with cucumbers with fingernails on the ends.

[Brentypooz]

SOUNDS LIKE CANNON

[hyper12233]

There should be some tabs for this, it's fucking badass.

[henrymac77]

they won't let me post a link, search for paul gilbert intense

there are more where that came from on the same site.

[henrymac77]

@henrymac77 ultimate-guitar is the site. youtube are link nazi's.

[shai1909]

RARE !!! i love that solo!!!

[Stevin13]

the notes in paul gilberts solos suffice for 2 "normal" songs...

[Stevin13]

good that theres is a clock, i thought i am crazy, when i thought about how fast he plays, until i saw the clock.. it was real

[CTuxford]

Do you know what is wonderful? It appears that as he has moved on that the stuff he plays now is crazy more soulful. Watching him in a recent seminar video shows SO much more maturity in his playing. He has really inspired me through his videos! :) Motif and rhythm ideas over pure shred. Nice. :)

[hyper12233]

I think I can pull this off with enough practice. Is there any tabs for this? It's hard to sound out every freaking note lol

[museman91]

the guitar looks like purple taffy

[ermonski]

I never knew Michael Cera could fuckin shred!

[Zombiekeks]

Hey, he played this lick live. I've tried to learn it for a while, but the recording wasn't clean enough. This should help, thanks!

[BOOBYBROS]

37 what tech. thats crazy

[Headcheezonium]

I'm colorblind and I see it as pink.

[davidlovereflections]

Are those in the left corner the notes that Gilbert is playing? :))

[EDINSONDURAN]

any tabs please?:(

[IxMAKExUxGOxLOL]

@EDINSONDURAN Search Sequenced String Skipping on Songsterrdotcom and you'll find it

[prokopto]

I've heard of hair extensions but he must have had a pinky extension. He could shoot pool with that pinky!

[sreynoldsbros2]

he is an amazing guitarist but i think steve via i better

[maxpwnsu12]

you suck

[wan2bepro]

KEYGEN MUSIC! :D

[Hideisalegend]

"RacerXBand do()t com" hahaha dit Internet exist yet back then ?

[Kamus1952]

Its music from super mario bross 3 level bonus.

[gabiotta]

All that hard work to end up sounding like C3-PO having an orgasm?

[Arnimate]

was that serrana at the end?

[zapz0rd]

@Arnimate Sounded more like Pachelbel's Canon to me, which, Jason Becker used to play quite often. So that may be what you were thinking.

[blockhead9899]

i know i cant play it anyway...but TABS?

[HarlemRic]

14 people were disgusted by his abnormally long fingers! :D

[willisenglish]

@ArpeggioFelatio In fairness it is all sweeping arpegioes placed in the oppertune locations, all been done before by Bach to name but one person. And learn to string together a sentance before you try to come back at me. Obviously he is much better than me, but then again i am not making shed loads of money from my compositions am i? And i am entitled to my opinion, so cool it

[bahamut008]

Dry, stale technique?

Ohh cause only a minute long bend is considered emotional?

Right.

Let's see people play this themselves.

[diazluisdiaz]

@bahamut008 That guy says that cause maybe his guitar hero is slash or some glam sentimental tranny

[jkriegel1]

DId he really play anything? I just heard dry, stale technique, sorry.

[AntUK]

@jkriegel1 When I have dry, stale technique in my ears, I use cotton wool buds

[DjChrispyNuggets]

Jesus Christ I just realised how long his fucking pinky is. omg

[mackiezer032]

razor x band.... THE FOUNDATION this is how it all started

[octivia]

smug git.

[Pointycrown]

14 people are deaf, are leppards, and blind

[Navarre1994]

THATS FROM SILENCE FOLLOWED BY A DEAFENING ROAR!!!

[deathcore1239]

makes me proud to be an ibanez player

[MarrickFait]

Ehh, yngwie..MAB.. and him I guess are the triad gods of shred...o.o

[Mofozofo]

@MarrickFait Add Vai and Satch to that

[rofljelly135]

@Mofozofo PENTAGON

[Mofozofo]

@rofljelly135 lol

[TAY28H666]

@Mofozofo petrucci

[kottoled]

@TAY28H666 and that would make a hexagram...

[amccoll20893]

anyone have tabs!?!?

[sprayboy666]

dammit...there goes another pair of pants

[MrRadicalsocialista]

ASI SE TOCA LA GUITARRA PUTOS¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡ ESTE SI ES UN MASTER¡¡¡¡¡¡

[workablob]

My band and his used to gig together back in Pittsburgh. At Stage One.

[TheForeignMan]

WHERE ARE THE TABS TO THIS ORGASMIC MASTERPIECE????

[dannydmangillz]

nahh i think the 14 disslikes are from yngwie malmsteen!

[shredftw]

@dannydmangillz

hahaha I can imagine yngwie sittin there with his doughnuts and coffee.... yelling at his computer "who's dis foooking man better at da guitar den me?"

[brokensk]

at :24 that sounds like the cannon rock but alot faster

[amccoll20893]

@brokensk that is the chord progression for canon rock he just uses his pattern over it

[Chubzter15]

i think the 14 people that dislike this just dont like pink

[Dorkus89Malorkus]

@Chubzter15 purple*

[chikotamo]

@Chubzter15  I agree,lol

[D1vid3By0]

@Chubzter15

pink? his guitar is purple... Well at least that proves you're not another 12 year old commenting on youtube. You're colorblind.

[ThePhenomMan]

@Chubzter15 Na It aint that they dont like pink, its that theyre jelouas of it.

[IronMetl]

i cant do this skip picking =(

[joebuckjrr]

I like his style..I think he played alot of Nintendo

[Lerborn]

@joebuckjrr Agree, and I think he got fast in his fingers because he never went to buy a Turbo controller

[1465225568]

@joebuckjrr His style is extremely influenced by classical music. That's why you get all the technical arpeggios and what not.

[kosherkickboxer]

lol he makes it look so easy...

[lisannhodges67]

THIS is the Paul Gilbert lick Ive been wanting to learn...are there any tabs!?!?

[TheInvalidChronicles]

@lisannhodges67 yeah there are want the link?

[lisannhodges67]

@TheInvalidChronicles Definetly! :)

[Rellik428]

@lisannhodges67 Search for Paul Gilbert, Sequenced String Skipping. There is a guitar pro 5 tab for it on Ultimate guitar

[XB0XFR34K]

[jimmyleppard6]

[sandyrockznrulz]

I think what he really wanted to say is:

"wow (I suck)... im seriously (not even) (0.)10x better"

[Ty2052]

this the best!

[samfukunishi]

fuck

[AceofSpadestheband]

is it just me, or does that TONE suck balls? not the PLAYING, but the TONE

[Hoshang2]

Nah, malmsteen is much more tastier and better!

[OlleOutWar]

Well, that's where Daft Punk found their inspiration for Aerodynamic :)

[ryanmark0e]

Any tabs for this?

[Rollerblader1]

Usually when I hear shredding like this, it sounds like shit. But Gilbert always makes his stuff sound really good. This kinda also brings me back to playing Top Gear on the SNES XD

[flyinglizard08]

@Rollerbladeyeah your real funny you FUCKIN DOUCH NOZZLE

[Rollerblader1]

@flyinglizard08 the hell dude? I didn't even say anything bad about Gilbert.

[MrYeswecan14]

obviously,his playing is faster than the nanoseconds!

[shenzo2000]

that is the coolest shredding I've ever heard

[TacoBourrito]

super hard lick! i can play it only half speed

[GadKing]

@ABrandNewName1 I gues the tabs would something like this... 091826340961774308478616289963­874102301234

[MrBatax]

it's edun................

[Tordek42]

Oh...my....god...

Anyone have/make a tab of this?

[dakotaj]

that just blew my mind all over the fucking wall

[deathead666]

I don't like it at all.....

[boxingin]

@deathead666 I'm with you on that.

[boxingin]

Same shit over and over for over a minute. He sucks.

[slayisinsanified]

@boxingin go to a corner and suck a dick =)

[boxingin]

@slayisinsanified After your mother gets out of there. lol

[slayisinsanified]

@boxingin she's not there, she's in the other corner FISTING your mother LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL ^_^

[boxingin]

@slayisinsanified You went to a gay bar and what did you say Paul Gilbert did to you? Ouch, I bet that hurt! Hehehe!

[slayisinsanified]

@boxingin nice try kid... how long did it take you to come up with that?

anyway why would he be in a gay bar in the first place, that place is no fun cuz i've been there...just kidding :P

PS. enjoy

_|_ ^_^ _|_

[InsanityType66]

lol shred canon in D at the end :D

[NisseEricsson]

I want to play this shit. I really do. Paul Gilbert is God.

[olix9595]

we dont want to watch your vid

its in the related...

[jollypocket28]

Yo this is easy as one two three he's doing an easy line skipping

[AaronWallace]

Yea. this is easy to play really slow.

Playing it as fast as he does, as clean as he does is something I've been working on for about a year now on and off, still don't have it.

[Ulibecker1]

how is the name of this DVD?

it's amazing!

[MerlinBunny1]

Intense Rock

[guitarshreder1231]

awsome

[Whathuhwhowhere]

Fuck, its nuts how guys like paul can create random shit like that, awsome

[Sw3d3prid3]

its scales mixxed. not so hard that part. the hard part is to play it that fast and clean

[Whathuhwhowhere]

Oh yeah, well its still a fuckload more scales than i know haha and yes he is a very accurate player

[willisenglish]

Techniquely one of the greatest

[Fendershred50]

nah, just one of the greatest period haha

[MattKondrath]

@willisenglish wat aboutt Dimebag???? wow ur a dick dude lol

[willisenglish]

@MattKondrath Dude i said one of the greatest. Lol not the greatest. Hes pretty great 2, but i prefer vai to both of them personally :P

[Jonsk12394]

@MattKondrath - Meh Dimebag was more known for the "Feel" in his shredding. Had a different tone to it. Techniquely i'm pretty sure that Paul Gilbert is better than most

[Najeepain]

@willisenglish Technically** and more then technically the melody in the intro is ridiculous

[willisenglish]

@Najeepain *more than technique* and yeah it aint bad, thaugh to be fair anyone can string a few arpeggios together, shred metal sweeping sounds sick and is dificult to play, but relitivly easy to compose with a basic understanding of music.

[Arkhandroid]

@willisenglish thats kind of the idea, lol.

The whole concept came from violins.

[Najeepain]

@willisenglish yea. i suppose.. but he was still young.. but its not about hopw hard it is if we all listen ya know?

[Zman200111]

whoo anyone else hear base of pachbells cannon in the middle of that :D he was scale sredding over the notes in the cannon :D

[cetko13]

more like in the end of it :3

[Zman200111]

Hahaha thats what I meant the middle of the video the end of the clip starting at around 26

[leonardomachadoes]

It amazes me how people like to bullshit. I'm still wondering who the hell invented this "feeling x no feeling" speed matter. Because it's not from the Romantic era, 'cos this same era generated virtuosi like Paganini. It's ok if you don't like it, just don't say it is not musical, mr. Judge; and it doesn't matter if it's Malmsteen or The Ramones.

[greatest69ever]

everyone has a different perspective of music because music is free so no one has the right to label any music

[FaNwlnG]

it's more like a study.

[mystro810]

hahah.. "you can really be musical with that". That was anything but musical. it was fast and perfect but thats not what music is about... it sounded like a nintendo song sped up alot

[NicanorPoveda]

it was harmonic.. so..

[LeeJamYam]

@mystro810

Then clearly you know nothing about music. That's all there is to it.

[mystro810]

@Leejamyam

I do not know anything about music that would be taught in a classroom or transcribed on a sheet of paper but I do know how good music makes me feel. and listening to this I feel nothing

[trinitysamurai]

@mystro810 that's your view of it - there are different styles which makes music an art. music affects people differently and in ur case this obviously doesn't appeal to you so get over it and move on :)

[trinitysamurai]

@LeeJamYam I agree, if a person can't appreaciate all music then he has no right to be respected as a musician

[mystro810]

Thats funny considering that metal fans are usually the ones going around youtube hating on anything besides metal. anything that isnt technically perfect is considered crap to a metalhead. They give no respect to artists like Kurt Cobain, Jimi Hendrix, ect because they cant shred at 1000 light-years and sometimes hit the wrong note.

[trinitysamurai]

@mystro810 - thats why i don't respect them , and yeah i agree alotta dumbasses say shit like that which i think is stupid - -" i know exactly wat u mean and the truth is most classic metal players like gilbert were influenced by santana hendrix n all. still, no reason for you to be hating on this style of music, cuz it doesn't really matter what you think almost all music is derative from other oplayerslike hendrix. all da same bruh.

[JASONX410]

lol Jimi Hendrix has never hit a wrong note. EVER.

[mystro810]

haha. I can agree with that

[SoundOfAShark]

Yeah because everything he does is literally impro anyway rofl

[UltimateImperium]

That's steriotypical...I'd say it's people like you that cause trouble

[mystro810]

And Id say you're probably a metal fan

[UltimateImperium]

Actually, I like all kinds of music...without making any ill-judged assumptions as you tried to, I can safely say that you're the typical argumental douchebag that shouldn't be allowed on the internet....I don't see what you're trying to accomplish by arguing with everyone

[nboyjn]

@mystro810 im a metal fan (also likes regular rock, blues and classical music) who never went to a video i knew i wasnt gonna like and commented negatively. paul gilbert can shred fast but he can also play with lots of emotion like his solo in while my guitar gently weeps.

[smausetrap]

how about rap? I just can't appreciate it in any sense of the world.

but i respect the people who attempt it, kudos to them, just not the genre.

[trinitysamurai]

fairnuff , its how they're expressing themselves. its alright not to like the genre, its gud you respect the ppl if they're honest and not corrupt like some artists = = (y)

[drockmuthafucka]

i like to think of it as them having good timing and rhythm and the ability to emphasize certain parts through words. thats how i appreciate it.

[mandolingrass]

to be honest he's very good but i find all this shredding kinda boring after about two minutes, playing at warp factor ten isn't always the best . but thats only my humble opinion

[DarthKazi]

It's a demonstration not a song.

[mandolingrass]

i realise that it's a demo of his ability but i've listened to his work and i still find it gets boring !!!! sorry it does nothing for me i prefer brad paisley . i only had a listen because somebody recomended me to because i play guitar ,,....sorry not my style

[Coasterpimp123]

oopps i just came.

[mandeehochhiins]

Hey look, there's a thread hanging off his shirt...oh wait...that's just his arm..

[Bolzmann13]

@mandeehochhiins old joke

[nYuknYuknYuk6495]

I love how he acts like he didn't just shred our faces off.

[rybread765]

hhahaha. he was so chill the entire time, like nothing ever happened

[TheRealJosan]

this has a classical taste to it

[Rayrockny]

Sounds like old school Nintendo music.

[abjafriggitywhoo]

My favorite part of this video, is the "FUCK YOU I'M SHREDDING THIS SHIT" followed by, "You know you can really make this musical."

Can I Paul? Damn your amazingness...

[9Nick2]

i fucking neeeeed to play it

[ardziu1]

parodia

[EWLeon]

In case anyone is wondering, this is from "Intense Rock", one of Paul's instructional DVDs. I'd recommend getting it, personally it gave me a lot of insight into his playing and helped me a lot.

[Blokkenman]

MY MIND GOT EXPLODED!

[LolEYEHasFun]

any tabs for this?

[fenderbuzzer]

is....that.....Canon??? starting at 24, and i swear i have heard Yngwie use that exact same lick from 20-24

[JthulhuOne]

oh man i love that minor 7th he just glides over in the middle of those arpeggios

[edgarrg94]

CANONN IN D JAJAJA

[superguitaristdude]

Thats unatural paul

[esa1810]

Feb. 1988 Rialto, CA.

[Garcia148]

[esa1810]

nothing out of the ordinary. The filming was during the RX dates with Y&T.

[Garcia148]

oh ho, cause i live in rialto haha
