  • From the December issue of Guitar One, Paul explains his crazy idea to play an E minor arpeggio in 3 octaves, eventually leading to his idea to retune the 2nd neck on his double-neck.
    Enjoy.

    “It’s a difficult lick to play.” Plays it fairly well anyway.

    Rips out perfectly fluid wide string skip 3 note per string licks like it's nothing. I've been listening to Paul ever since the soundpage in Guitar Player magazine back in like 1987 and throughout the past 20 years he has never ceased to amaze me. Thanks Paul for making life so much better all around!!

    One of the easiest explinations for people who are just starting to make progress on their guitars on how to sound out arpegios without having any form of lessons or text to learn from without all the technical jargon. I like Gilbert alot not only cos of his styles and abilities but that he's real and a down to earth bloke.

    One nuance many of us guitarists don't really appreciate about Gilbert's playing mechanics is that his hands are freaking huge and he can probably reach more notes in the upper octaves than most others.

    I'm working on an adaptation of this
    on bass - 5 string - standard tuned
    low tuned D
    I like D instead of down to B on top
    for chord purposes - less rattle also

  • @yngvaigilbsteen
    @yngvaigilbsteen 16 років тому +1

    I was speaking from more of a "producer" standpoint concerning tone. Certain types of guitar tones "sit" in a mix better than others...depending on the type of mix. In those instances, it's not so much about taste as it is about what "works" and makes the mix sound cohesive and musical. Having said that, John has really well produced tone. Paul has a very easy tone to mix as well. Both guys have really groomed sounds. Sounds like your tone is solid, too. I love Dimarzio as well. : )

  • @DKURevan
    @DKURevan 15 років тому

    This was an extract, a demonstration for a Guitar Techniques magazine. How he puts it into play, such as "GooMY" is art. His skill and control of the guitar is art, and how he can bend and manipulate the guitar to his will basically.

    @dimetonn Yes, I'm a guitarist too and I agree absolutely. String skipping is way harder than sweep picking, but Shawn Lane has some pretty badass string skipping licks so.. That's what I was aiming at. I didn't think about comparing string skipping to sweeping.
