[vonMohl]

Skip 1-2:33

[SASLEAD666]

7:52 the guitar makes a mistake

[kierungg]

@SASLEAD666 was the G string :)

[WeirdoNabido]

try doing the galloping upstrokes he just did.... lol

[RACERXrg550]

would i be correct in saying the bridge on this guitar is a kahler 2300 ??

[MikeToddOnline]

You can really hear the high end "presents" in his tone during this era of his career. *drum roll*

[GCLwins]

This is the definitive guitar instuction video - Paul's an amazing guitarist, and an all round great guy with an awesome sense of humor!

You ROCK, Paul - you created my guitar playing technique in 1992!

Keeping rocking, man!

[Billyhadley1965yeah]

Yeah, I noticed the switch later on.....the pixely footage almost makes the tiny switch invisible!

[Billyhadley1965yeah]

Edit....I see the switch, it was one of those extremely tiny switches....and the horrible video quality renders it invisible. Gotta love the Standard Definition days.....

[Billyhadley1965yeah]

Lol! Looks like Paul was hunting for a selector switch at 1:18....must not be used to this axes layout. Gilbert RULES!

[Artybruh]

@Billyhadley1965yeah nah man if you look closely there is a selector switch there

[kungfuman82]

Remember kids: with an fuck-ton of practice you too can go from thinking that all guitar playing is done with an upstroke to this!

[aldricsuan]

WHAT'S THAT SPELL??!!

[Megatallicaupyourass]

GIVE ME A S!!

[OneBlazedDood]

GIVE ME A K!!

[danosdrake]

[TonyMistry]

GIVE ME AN I!!!

[sturniboy]

GIVE ME A L!!!

[XxKiRkH4mM3TtxX]

Til now I can play the tuning part

[dynamiteshredder]

1'50 the speed and energy is AMAZING

[MahtiHiiri]

well, that was intense! i want those fingers :<

[JohnPain123]

I can play faster than this with my balls! You should see them both moving up and down the fretboard! In fact, I reckon I could play faster than this with one of my balls tied behind my back! Just wait until I post that vid on YouTube, man it's gonna kick so much ass that everyone elses balls are gonna explode!

[Ricoshr3d]

I wonder who taught him when he was 9? A warped memory is one thing, but when a teacher tells you "only use upstrokes," that's just an odd technique to begin with. And only with one finger? Who the hell is this guy? I'm self-taught, and that's still odd.

[Luqueiral]

@Ricoshr3d  maybe thats his secret for alternate picking :O

[HasaanFatal]

@Ricoshr3d I think he only remembered what was emphasised - you must remember to use your pinky on you left hand and you must remember to play upstrokes. A lot of beginner students use three fingers on their left hand and neglect the pinky. Many play everything with downstrokes only.

There is also the possibility here that young Paul was only making a joke. He does that.

[TonyMistry]

Paul Gilbert's picking technique increase my speed and articulation tenfold! Love his lessons!

[ChucklesMginty]

Licks licks licks licks licks licks licks.

[sakura0emma]

I hate him

[METALLICA4EVER1547]

@sakura0emma Go die in a hole you douche

[FRIDAY13TAURUS]

it's not about one picking technique it's about whatever works to achieve the sound, tone, and feel you're going for...the greatest picker is not even alive as all of this picking technique is still relatively new...in a hundred years there will be a picker that will leave everyone in the dust, and so on and so forth...the point is, we are just scratching the surface of what's even possible on guitar or anything for that matter...get out of that confined thinking and make something happen...

[neurocosm]

pfffffffft.... I could do that too if I was extraordinary awesome and kicking ass on guitar. :) I will stick to the whistle.

[TheInvalidChronicles]

is he lefty or righty?

[JonIsFrench]

he stopped the world at 2:15 - 2:16

[Hellomynameis91]

i love paul gilbert

[varetao666]

toka nao! dexa

[SAK47RAMENTO]

one of the "classic" solos in shred guitar history...

[Bfredmusic92]

what i would do to have that alternate picking ability. But i guess lots of practice can help ya get there :)

[kstret]

The one of the keys to alternative picking is consolidation of movement. The smaller the movement your picking hand makes, the faster you are going to be. Pay attention to Paul's picking hand. A good exercise to to just do one string exercises. So try to play the firsts string part fast. B-C-D over and over again. D-C-B over and over again ect

[nulife022]

Economy picking may be necessary in some situations, but alternate is much easier to keep track of (and faster). I worked for a long time on both and think alternate is much less confusing, so I settled on that, apparently so did Paul. I wish I could do it as fast and clean as Paul, but then who can.

[funknotik]

I don't understand why he would up stroke on the E at 5:05 wouldn't that be slower than just going down? Isn't contrary to "economy picking techniques?" I'm confused.

[Kaosguitarist]

he does a lot of upstroke stuff to accent the notes

[SirJamestheIII]

he doesn't do economy picking. he does strictly outside picking. Why?

A. cuz he's badass

B. better dynamics

C. He's better at anyone in the world at it

practice doing outside picking. your alternate picking skills will be much better and cleaner than if you only use economy picking

[funknotik]

I have noticed a nice improvement in my speed since trying this regardless of what technique I use. Still not anywhere close to P Gilbert speed. It's ridiculous!!!

[dodo4hire]

@SirJamestheIII what the fuck is economy picking. i like dropped economy class after i had it for like 2 weeks O.o

[DeadlyDictator]

@dodo4hire its like if i did an alternate pick ending on a up on the high e then basically sweeped an up stroke on the b and then continued the lick on the b

[dodo4hire]

@DeadlyDictator so basicly. ur just raising the whole lick by a certain interval?

[DeadlyDictator]

@dodo4hire no, its instead of like doing a downstroke on the low e and an upstroke on the a to change strings, you just sweep pick kinda with like two strings and then continue alternate picking. economy is pretty much just two downstrokes or upstrokes

[dodo4hire]

@DeadlyDictator well so. outside picking to alternate... well i chose what picking i do. fuck him for saying i should pick that way. even tough ill do it anyway cuz its the best way lol xD

[AuralOverdose]

@SirJamestheIII Well I doubt he's going to do an up stroke when he's ascending one string. Economy picking has its place.

[FieldsMusicME]

@SirJamestheIII C is false. One name: Marshall Harrison. Mastered economy picking. Look him up.

[SirJamestheIII]

@FieldsMusicME i know who marshall harrison is. C. meant paul is better than anyone at OUTSIDE picking not ECONOMY picking. and marshall is insane

[DeadlyDictator]

@SirJamestheIII he does inside picking, look at technical difficulties intro riff

[neurocosm]

@SirJamestheIII - Good comment and great advice. I agree, and discovered this (though I did not know it was what it was).  Once I went back to simple pattern exercises, I was like.. whoa... how did that speed happen? Exactly.

[FRIDAY13TAURUS]

@neurocosm i'm glad you're following the advice of a moron...

[FRIDAY13TAURUS]

@SirJamestheIII you're a moron...you don't know shit about picking...

[SirJamestheIII]

@FRIDAY13TAURUS given that i asked Paul in person about this at a clinic at SUNY Purchase a year ago, I may be a moron, but I am a moron who is reciting what paul said, so..... STOP TROLLIN

[FRIDAY13TAURUS]

@SirJamestheIII

blah blah blah moron...

[FRIDAY13TAURUS]

@SirJamestheIII

I'm a better picker than anyone you've ever heard...

[OuterHeavenMetal]

@FRIDAY13TAURUS doubt that

[FRIDAY13TAURUS]

@OuterHeavenMetal eat your heart out

[georgeygeorgey1]

@SirJamestheIII It's good to learn both inside and outside picking. If your strictly playing using alternate picking instead of economy picking, you'll always run into inside playing, aswell as outside playing.

[camjambitches]

@SirJamestheIII You fucking know it man!!!

[HiImJerry8]

@SirJamestheIII thats true i used to do only economy picking and completely forgot about outside picking, that just killed my technique, i had to start doing it again, but it was quite easy because i had already done it before

[ozzy9691]

@funknotik but paul doesnt economy pick

[MrMusician100]

The PERM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[UnchainTheNight1]

ima put this in my favorites and make myself not watch the next video til i master this lol
