  • mhh, paul taps on the g and on the d string..

  • @guitarchris93 Hmmm,,,, Let me see if I can clear this up once and for all!

    When he starts the lick in the Video( Slowly!!), he taps the d string once to get it started.

    When he's at Full speed, He doesn't tap it anymore! I can see that there's some unclearness about this, since the way he pulls-off the Tapping finger goes toward the D string!

    I hope this helps!

    Thanks for watching!

  • Great Remy! Is this also the lick from the Superheroes solo?

  • @orsvend hmmmmm......... I had to listen to it first( again)!:-)

    Not exactly I'm affraid...

    It's similair in some bits, but it kind of goes into "Tapping the same fret you're hammering on with your left hand" lick.

    Does that make any sense?

    He did a lesson on that kind of lick a few years back for an english magazine.

    It's also on youtube:-)

    Good luck!

    Remy

    I hope someday we meet in Holland or in France, and we can play Paul Gilbert's song with you and my friends.

  • That guitar sounds great as fuck.

  • Thanks so much! I've been trying to figure that one out for ages.

  • Haha, echt de droogste hey guys ever in het begin!

  • Hey Remy, when you play the lick slowly, it sounds like you're playing straight sixteenths all the way through. I can't really tell, but when you speed it up are you doing straight sixteenths, and then playing the last five notes faster (kinda like a group of triplets, except a grouping of five)? It seems to me that's the only way to keep it in 4/4 time (similar to Paul's 11 note pattern that this is based on).

  • Very helpful! Thank you!

    

  • batman

  • Hey Remy. i think that your lick doesn't match exactly what paul is playing. i checked his lesson closely and he seems to tap both the D and the G string, where you only tap the G string. can you check it out? thx
