I still got the original VHS of this from like almost 20 years ago laying around. Back in the days, it was kind of special to hold a video tape from your favorite guitarist in your hands. There weren't that many available and it was actually kinda hard to get, too. Now, you just come here and have everything available with one click. It's crazy!
If only we had things like youtube and guitar pro etc back in the day! All those poor tab books and tapes get no love anymore, getting old and soon to hit their antique stage of life...
Yeah I remember having to wait weeks and months for tapes to arrive from distant lands, e.g. from USA or Japan to little old England (UK). At the time it seemed like magic that I could even do this. The rest of the time you would trawl music stores, including the upmarket places that normally sold Classical instruments and sheet music books. I remember seeing the first Tony Macalpine VHS instructional video in a store, and I stupidly left it for next time. It took me nearly twenty years before I eventually found it to buy, and this time on Ebay which obviously did not exist back in 1991.
It was the same way with porn. I knew a kid that had a VHS tape of an actual porn movie and he was like the king of the neighborhood. We would all try to bribe him with Taco Bell to let us borrow it. I wonder if Paul Gilbert has ever met Ron Jeremy?
This is a Master showing trade secrects to make everyone better. Paul uses standard musical terms to name the chord he is playing arpeggios to - to help the listener identify the composition of each run and put it into memory. Paul Gilbert is a helpful Master. These You Tube videos attest that fact without question. Thank you, Paul, for a lifetime.
My classmate borrowed my VHS tape of this back in high school and he never returned it ever since. He currently plays in a death metal band while I play the rhythm section in a blues garage band with my dad and relatives.
I traded a Joe Satriani tape for an Eric Johnson tape then the Johnson tape for the first Paul lesson tape. Then my neighbor and bandmate stole it. Lol.
Deserves more credit this man! Can't think of many guitarist's that play as if completely free flowing at will and virtually without incident as Mr Gilbert. NA1974🇬🇧.
William Lo everyone gets bored of their own stuff at some point :( too bad paul gilbert didnt naturally evolve into anything greater musically from the early days, dont get me wrong the recent albums are nice, but not so great. but he will always be in my top3
100% agree. The way he played, picked, spoke, the guitars he played, even how he held the pick, made me want to play. This is inspiring and nostalgic. Damn, that’s a lot of treble though🤣🤘🏻🤘🏻
you mean the lead guitarist for Steel Panther - Russell Parrish aka Satchel. Paul, Russ and Jeff Martin started a "band" called Electric Fence playing only covers from Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, Judas Priest, Hendrix etc...Paul and Russ would swap instruments, they both can play bass really well. Paul can also play drums.
I like listening to Paul because he's as articulate with his descriptions of ideas as he is in his execution of them. His approach to technique is simple and down to earth, but so powerful. He did more for my capability with the guitar pick than any other person whose guitar playing I admire, including other greats like Yngwie and John Mclaughlin. Way to rock!
I'm surprised all that fringe hanging from the neck doesn't get in the way of his playing. Regardless, he sure is a master of alternate picking. I've never heard anyone else do it as clean, precise and fast as he does.
Paul is one of the best guitarst out there, not because of his technique, but unique ability to express emotions using guitar. People often thinks that fast playing = "no soul". Try seeing live performance of Paul :) Best regards.
***** Are you asking me? It was more of a joke. In the eighties, you couldn't really be a guitarist in a band unless you were the shit. Then 1989 comes and blows everyone's ideas of what to do and how to play out of the water. I don't have strong opinions about what people should be playing. I like Nirvana okay. They're not the greatest thing since sliced bread or anything but they're pretty cool. Paul Gilbert is also pretty darn cool. It's all groovy. I just thought it would be funny watching this amazing guitarist shred like lightning because he practiced his ass off right before the three chord thing came into fashion. :)
***** But, what I'm saying is that people had very fixed ideas about what to play and how to play it in the eighties. There was a formula that worked and that's what they went with. I didn't say anything about the popularity of a song being determined by the number of chords it had. Had the Beatles played "I Wanna hold you hand" in the eighties they would've been laughed at. I mean, you know, assuming they hadn't already established themselves. Hypothetically. I don't know if you realize how much of a surprise Nirvana was. They literally ruined careers. Musicians all over LA moved to Seattle, people threw away their synthesizers. The spandex and hairspray industries went into financial ruin. Okay I'm exaggerating a little but the whole 90's grunge thing really did take the music industry by surprise and it was big business back then.
Rayza1983 Well, it started in the mid 70's but then punks, synth pop new wavers and spandex wearing hair rockers existed side by side. Nirvana and Pearl Jam made that whole costumed caricatured rock thing seem cheesy and old fashioned. I remember all the long haired black tee shirt metal heads from middle school dyeing their hair green and piercing stuff in high school. That transition happened at that time for me. As I said, it really did take the music industry by surprise and it did ruin careers. Now, it's different. You still have your post grunge people still trying to capitalize on that sound and you have bands like Steel Panther doing well with the eighties look. And there's punk bands and new new wave bands and every kind of genre you can think of and a few you can't but they're all relatively underground since no one is making any money selling records or cd's anymore. It's a different time. It's like everything has been done and there's no major paradigm shifts left for music to make. Everyone just listens to what they like. It's kind of liberating in one sense but it's kind of sad in another. The day of the juke box hero has come and gone.
I never cared for the bands that Gilbert played in. Nothing against him. But, I met him at a NAMM show one time, and he was so nice and laid back. No ego at all, willing to talk to and give advice to anyone that approached him. Not like some of the dickhead players that were there as well. And watching these videos, he's a GREAT teacher. Explains everything so well, and so willing to show you everything he knows. I dig the hell out of him.
Ive scoured the you tubez, ive looked thru everything from flat picking blue grass to gutgrie goven to yngwie.. and everything else in between.. but when i watch PG, Its exactly what i was looking for 🤘🤘
Paul is one of the most down-to-earth guys on the planet. In fact he's one of the most self-depricating guitarists out there. Just because a guy enjoys shredding doesn't mean he's an egotist. That's sour grapes if I've ever heard it.
Hey Paul. I truly enjoyed watching this video. I have been playing guitar for 50 years. I play well. I play tastefully. I am a bit of a snob when it comes to listening to many other guitar players. But, there was just such an endearing vibe in this video that lead me to watching it all the way through. Obviously, your playing burns (when necessary), but you were so cool just sharing a bunch of "inside" stuff with your thought-stream. Thanks. I really enjoyed this. I don't play a whole lotta fast stuff but I love hearing players who can share their wisdom and just be down to earth about it. Great job bro. Really appreciated this. Cheers.
My first thought, too, but Rick's comment is so sincere that it makes me feel like this should be brought to Paul's attention. It's not impossible for him to have seen it. ; ]
Well....HOLY FAAAA'N SHEET!!! Sorry for that wee pause, was picking up the last few chunks of my skull from my MIND EXPLODING. This guy right here...he might have to quit his day job. Looks like he could get good enough to maybe be in a cover band??? HA HA HA...clearly I'm still delirious from my recent head 'splodin. Ok, bye
@@jasonaldenhaley1 lol that's hilarious. I don't know if you're talkin about my really old videos or not? lol but if you are I decided I'm not that good with a camera lol I'd rather just stick to working on my dirt bike

it sure is, but for me he as a whole is kinda underratted no guitarist would have fitted better and more deserved in generation axe than paul along with yngwie and steve
So gifted yet so humble. PAUL GILBERT: Shred with feel. Genuine Feel.I really wish Ed would embrace the G3 thing. Never happen though. lol It would be interesting.
If I had to pick one guitarist to sound like, it would be Paul. I just can't get enough of his percussive attack. ❤ I had to change my shorts after @ 52:30 - 52:35
Exactly. Just because a guy is incredibly talented someone feels the need to knock him by saying he's an egotist. Listen to the man talk, he's super down to earth. And no technicality isn't everything but Paul has a unique style and creates interesting textures within the confines of shred. As long as originality and melody are present it's good musicianship.
Thank god for UA-cam! All this kind of stuff wouldn't probably see light of day. But now everyone across the world can witness this genius. And that goes for everything else too.
Its sad that Paul Gilbert isn't uber-famous like the pop/rock stars of today. If he had been super famous all his life I would have head his playing when I was 7 instead of 27. Then maybe after the 20 extra years of practice I could be one 7th as good as Paul Gilbert.
My best attempt at flamenco? What humility. Segovia would be proud. This is why Paul is so good. He really enjoys what he is doing. Humility can take one a long, long way in life's adventures When one appreciates a gift, given by the Gift Giver, humankind can really excel to heights unimaginable.
You know what I love about Paul Gilbert? He realizes how ridiculous people like MAB, Satriani, and Vai are and plays off of that. I will be forever grateful to Paul Gilbert.
Man, that is some real shit about a drummer. i jus got together with a drummer for the first time like 2 months ago, an it brings out the best in my playin', i mean i was "Knophlerin'" an i've only been playin for like 4 years, i practice on a twelvie i made into a six string jus for the extra reach, i've also been playin' bass too on the side religiously, i jus cant touch the electric till band practice or jam to a track alone, an for some reason it really helps when we jam out!
I've got guitar in hand amp on trying to keep up with this mofo this right now. I am at about almost 70% ability to Mr Speedy Spiderfingers. He has the longest fingers ever. At 23:05, he just got done rippin an alternate take of the end solo for What's It Gonna Be... killer.
MAN he sure has got some nice vibrato, I never really listened to Paul before, I am sure going to try and get some of them sweet licks down, man they are fucking sweet, one of the best rock tones I have heard in ages, I think I just creamed
I'm not a noob. I listened to players like Hendrix, Clapton, Blackmore, Page for years. I decided I wanted to improve my skills and got into guys like Gilbert, Bettencourt,Friedman and even a little bit of Vai. It's fun man. I mean yes, some of this is very "music lesson-esque" but he has some great ideas and some great lead work in his songs. Remember this is a tutorial video. Gilbert has some awesome solos. Listen to his cover of Iron Maiden's "The Evil that Men Do" I believe is the song.
Great Instructional (as are all Gilbert's) but honestly... Intense Rock and Sequences I&II have everything you ever need to learn from Paul before branching out into your own thing. If you didnt get what you need from the first two Gilbert videos from the 80s, you're not going to get it ever. :)
So much nostalgia. This is peak teenage years for me, hour after hour of watching this and practicing licks..
His pinky finger is just illegal...

Quite right my friend. David Gilmour is one of the other very few true examples. NA1974🇬🇧.
who could not like this dvd. only some one that is not into guitar could give this thumbs down
Best guitar player in hard rock/ metal in my book. Certainly the best alternate picking I have ever seen.

Paul's tone is underrated.
it sure is, but for me he as a whole is kinda underratted no guitarist would have fitted better and more deserved in generation axe than paul along with yngwie and steve
Ol' Wiggle Pinky is up to his old tricks again, I see. Paul's jams are ageless, man. They just never get old.

The mark of a great musician is teaching others whatcha know, thanks Paul!

First solo reminds me of David Gilmour
+datgrass Yass, same chord progression as in the solo of Comfortably Numb
lol what the fuck is wrong with you lolol
It is.... and Why not?? Not so serious Nah!!!
Its bc its the comfortably numb backing track and progression
Paul's hands were uncomfortably numb after playing that solo, in 'Technical Difficulties', which I believe wasn't known at the time.
Its sad that Paul Gilbert isn't uber-famous like the pop/rock stars of today. If he had been super famous all his life I would have head his playing when I was 7 instead of 27. Then maybe after the 20 extra years of practice I could be one 7th as good as Paul Gilbert.
Is that Really Tom Jones Autograph on his Guitar , lol
My best attempt at flamenco? What humility. Segovia would be proud. This is why Paul is so good. He really enjoys what he is doing. Humility can take one a long, long way in life's adventures When one appreciates a gift, given by the Gift Giver, humankind can really excel to heights unimaginable.

Paul Gilbert is one of THE Best...
When he's 70yrs old he'll still melt your face.
I can't really listen to his music, but it's such an inspiration to see how much fun he's having playing :)
0:50→2:06 ~ I have an old Big Muff from the 1970s,
exactly like his strange choice of background.
That was awesome when you calling out the chord changes I can't stop😂😂😂
I love his lead tone here.
The cooking dumplings in the background around 14:00 is a universal WIN.

Man, that is some real shit about a drummer. i jus got together with a drummer for the first time like 2 months ago, an it brings out the best in my playin', i mean i was "Knophlerin'" an i've only been playin for like 4 years, i practice on a twelvie i made into a six string jus for the extra reach, i've also been playin' bass too on the side religiously, i jus cant touch the electric till band practice or jam to a track alone, an for some reason it really helps when we jam out!
Master class still in 2024
What is the name of the song that PG played from 5:30 minute
Prebian Marak Nothing But Love
Paramarta Iganp. Thanks
The guy playing bass in the tuning section is Satchel from Steel Panther. It's nice that they're friends.
I've got guitar in hand amp on trying to keep up with this mofo this right now. I am at about almost 70% ability to Mr Speedy Spiderfingers. He has the longest fingers ever. At 23:05, he just got done rippin an alternate take of the end solo for What's It Gonna Be... killer.
I know this is a 5 year old comment but do you know the name of the song he plays along to at 21:00?
@@jplittle1987 nope, had never heard it before. Clearly a Mr Big song that didn't make the album
Папа Пол! Great job, maestro!
Thank you very much for sharing this with us specially the tabs!
Thank you very very very much for those tabs!! You're awesome!
MAN he sure has got some nice vibrato, I never really listened to Paul before, I am sure going to try and get some of them sweet licks down, man they are fucking sweet, one of the best rock tones I have heard in ages, I think I just creamed
I'm not a noob. I listened to players like Hendrix, Clapton, Blackmore, Page for years. I decided I wanted to improve my skills and got into guys like Gilbert, Bettencourt,Friedman and even a little bit of Vai. It's fun man. I mean yes, some of this is very "music lesson-esque" but he has some great ideas and some great lead work in his songs. Remember this is a tutorial video. Gilbert has some awesome solos. Listen to his cover of Iron Maiden's "The Evil that Men Do" I believe is the song.
Great Instructional (as are all Gilbert's) but honestly... Intense Rock and Sequences I&II have everything you ever need to learn from Paul before branching out into your own thing. If you didnt get what you need from the first two Gilbert videos from the 80s, you're not going to get it ever. :)
The solo starting at 22:04 is absolutely kickass! Anyone know what song this would’ve been for?
