alright dude...i've seen your name a few times but haven't subscribed to your channel...more of a jake the garden snake fan, myself...but anyone who recognizes how cool paul gilbert is deserves my sub.
Paul has always been a down to earth guy. Remember seeing him in Racer X as well in the 80’s. A real musicians musician. No big ego or attitude with this guy.
You know what's really great about PG, is that he keeps his pedal board nice and simple. He gives himself more time in playing than complicating stuff.
you'll notice in all these rig run downs and such....Paul always shows off his OWN gear...not all give the time. That's very telling and a reflection of his character!! he's as good a person as he is a guitar player!!
Great guy. Great rig rundown. He could have the most expensive boutique pedals in the world, but it's all bout his talent, and he makes a $40 distortion pedal sound amazing.
I like listening to this guy - I'm actually learning things about setting tones and vibes from him by watching this video! I really appreciate his openness and transparency about what he's doing, how he's doing it and why. For instance, during this video he actually shows you what do each of these different pedals sound like as he's going through them. One of the best guitar rig rundowns I have seen.
I love that he get's his tone from distortion pedals. I've always used them & find you get more control with them & they can sound just as good as tube distortion.
I caught Mr Big back in the day at Gazzarri's in Hollywood. Word got around town that a new Guitar Wonder boy named Paul Gilbert was in town and all the local guitar players swung by to check him out, grab a girl to bang and take off.
I met Scott Travis when my band opened the first three Fight shows back in 91’/92’. I asked him about playing with Paul and his experience in Racer X. He said Paul would fall sleep playing his guitar and they’d wake him with it still in his hands. Paul has put his time in and then some. 🎸
I like how simple his board is. Couple drives, a unit to power his pedals, a delay and reverb, phaser, chorus/vibe, and compressor. Most people would've shoved those pedals as close together as possible because "Hey, I can shove another 3 pedals on my board!"
Saw Mr.Big open for RUSH at more than one show. Very impressed by Gilbert and the whole band. I remember they came out at the end of the set with RUSH and played In The Mood.
@@heavenlyguitar5913 Yeah, the vintage ADA isn't exactly affordable but can be replaced with a lot of other flangers. Now if only money could buy Paul's amazing fingers...
I love the way he uses the Alter Ego Delay. I use a Reverb pedal the same way. I'm not a huge Reverb guy, but I use just a smidge to "have some clothes" on, and not feel completely naked.
I cant help laughing. The japanese guy dont understand a word of what Paul say, but he nod and smile like crazy like "Of course dude" every time Paul say something. Priceless.
Chris Oliva from Savatage did it, too. He used 2 Boss DS-1 in series in front of a Marshall 1959 (although he had a Laney-endorsement, i know a couple of ppl who saw him playing back then, and he never used a Laney). And not to mention myself, did it for a long time :D :P Works great as long as you have a good amp behind the pedals. It just doesnt work in front of every amp. And, most important: the fingers....
I use 2 drive pedals in front of a Laney AOR Pro Tube 100, a DS-1 and a TS-808, both set as boosters (level only, no distortion). They sound great. The TS adds crispness for rhythms and the DS adds warmth for solos.

Paul is such an amazing human

Gilbert is one of a small handful of oldschool guitar players who isnt a jerk, kept it together through the 80's & 90's and hasnt lost his mojo.
he never lost his mojo because it's taped strong as fuck to the board
Nice one! haha
Joe satriani?
Greg Howe also.
With the MojoMojo peddle he has increased his mojo! 😂
I could listen to him talk about gear for months.
Paul has always been a down to earth guy. Remember seeing him in Racer X as well in the 80’s. A real musicians musician. No big ego or attitude with this guy.
Paul Gilbert is so likeable. :)
I saw Mr. Big in 1989 their first album I remember we were all blown away with Paul Gilbert. He can play everything well.
Not everything, just rock.
@@jspartacus Rock, metal, blues, jazz, even classical.... don't underestimate Paul's musical knowledge
@@JT_Grogan He's extremely limited. He couldn't hang with the greats of any of those genres, much less county or classical.
You should book a jam with Paul Gilbert and play every genres with him. I am sure he can play everything he just often play Rock and Blues.
@@JT_Grogan He's a Flamingo player as well.
Paul Gilbert is just the best. So amazing and unpretentious.
Absolutely the cleanest alternate picking in the world. He took what Yngwie did on Rising Force and just kept on going and going.
2:22 Walking On The Moon by The Police. I love watching any Paul Gilbert interview, he pulls out so many amazing songs he has stored in his memory.
agree, the man is like a human jukebox
yeah the bridge of sighs riff sounded great
cool
I like the way he describe his gear
You know what's really great about PG, is that he keeps his pedal board nice and simple. He gives himself more time in playing than complicating stuff.
It’s always a pleasure to hear Mr Gilbert say anything!
That's a really simple rig. The magic here is all Gilbert.
you'll notice in all these rig run downs and such....Paul always shows off his OWN gear...not all give the time. That's very telling and a reflection of his character!! he's as good a person as he is a guitar player!!
Mannn, I respect mr Paul Gilbert. He is such a humble guy, friendly to approach and like to share his knowledge with everyone.
Great guy. Great rig rundown. He could have the most expensive boutique pedals in the world, but it's all bout his talent, and he makes a $40 distortion pedal sound amazing.
Love paul gilbert when he is giving his gear explaination.

The most truesome guitar player of all time! Paul Gilbert never gets old with those shredy fingers.
Greatest video displaying how cool, talented, and down right awesome PG is !
One of my few favorite players. Ferocious 6-string Master !!!
This is incredible simply stuff for a international famous guitar player!!!
That flanger sounds amazing!
The cleanest guitarist in the world right now!
Him or John Petrucci, both are my faves and both are insanely clean at insane speed too
@@iwatchyouatnight1550 Michael Angelo Batio as well..
*ahem ahem* BUCKETHEAD *ahem*
How are these things measured?
Laughs in Guthrie govan
I love how old school and minimalist his pedal board is.Old pedals, duct tape, cool.Paul's the man, wish i was @ the Budokan for that show.
face melting, precise picking. casually continue talking as if nothing happend. I love PG
I love that he get's his tone from distortion pedals. I've always used them & find you get more control with them & they can sound just as good as tube distortion.
Gets, not "get's". No apostrophe.
Saw mr.big live here in manila last week.. it was a dream come true.. been a fan since i was a kid..
I
Love the way he can go ballistic shred and sweep, then play something soulful. His playing is something else!!
I caught Mr Big back in the day at Gazzarri's in Hollywood. Word got around town that a new Guitar Wonder boy named Paul Gilbert was in town and all the local guitar players swung by to check him out, grab a girl to bang and take off.
Is there anyone cooler and more down to earth than Paul Gilbert... the answer is no
Jim Dewd Guitars petrucci
actually there is another one. his name is kanye west. lol
sujirou Lil Wayne too
ah yes. them self-professed "geniuses".
Ye.... Oh just finished reading your comment. Guess not.
Love Paul Gilbert, his enthusiasm is totally infectious.. Not to mention a great guitarist and all round human!
Such a gentleman and legend.
loving his tones.

You're the best guitarist for me keep on inspiring people to get their guitar and keep on practicing beyond their limits thank you sir
Humble personality and friendly as my own bestfriend. Kudos to his life and keep rockin
I like how simple his board is. Couple drives, a unit to power his pedals, a delay and reverb, phaser, chorus/vibe, and compressor. Most people would've shoved those pedals as close together as possible because "Hey, I can shove another 3 pedals on my board!"
God bless Paul Gilbert... Such a gem of person and an amazing amazing guitarist
Sounds like Paul is enjoying life. He deserves it !!
Love to see PG's minimal pedalboard setup with a big sound. ♥️♥️♥️
That "Anything For You" intro... too beautiful
Love this guy. He always seems passionate about what he’s doing and talking about.
Paul Gilbert is amazing guitarist!!!
Simple rig! I always like to watch Paul talking, he likes to keep things simple and that's why he sounds so good. It comes from the fingers (:
One of the best ever and a total class act.
Paul I said it when I first saw and heard you back in the 80's your no joke your a real guitar hero.
*You're*
Paul Gilbert is great. He did a clinic at Motor City Guitar in Waterford, MI a few months ago. Had an awesome time.
Lov ya Paul. Your such a cool dude. Been listening to ya sense I was 14. Always be a fan
Take notes from a legend stacking 2 overdrive or distortion pedals into a clean amp with a noise gate is epic!
your clean tone was something paul! i love it so much
We are not discussing the elephants in the room then?
Rafael Andrade I didn't notice any elephants? Is that part of their tour this time around or what!
For th absolute win.🏆
Rafael Andrade almost missed it. Good eye.
You mean that yellow with dumb hair?
verbotenco lol
He is a national treasure and obviously loves what he does
Paul is the man.
legendary ... he plays so goooooood
Amazing human being, a true musician
Bruh is cool as hell. I dont even follow him but Paul Gilbert was my first GUITAR CLINIC at GC when I was 14 back in 1989
What a credit to the music industry and to music lovers the world over.
Saw Mr.Big open for RUSH at more than one show. Very impressed by Gilbert and the whole band. I remember they came out at the end of the set with RUSH and played In The Mood.
Thank you TC for the pedals I leave on all the time!!!
I don't see enough comments talking about how awesome Paul is, so I'll just say that he is awesome.
Fun video. Thanks Paul.
Paul never drops guitar pics! The three pics are for lucky fans . Love you Paul!
He's my fave, never heard him miss a Note.
Nice clean sound Paul !! 👍🏻👍🏻
Wish I had this amazing gears
Nice thing is that the pedals are affordable. The Marshall stack will cost some money but a Fender Twin can do the same thing.
@@heavenlyguitar5913 Yeah, the vintage ADA isn't exactly affordable but can be replaced with a lot of other flangers. Now if only money could buy Paul's amazing fingers...
what absolutely humble rockstar!
The most important is "the Man behind the gun"....he is paul gilbert...the best
Paul is all class..
I love the way he uses the Alter Ego Delay. I use a Reverb pedal the same way. I'm not a huge Reverb guy, but I use just a smidge to "have some clothes" on, and not feel completely naked.
This fuckin guy right here... who doesn't love 'em?
Paul you are a really music historic boock open !!! amazing !
My all time guitar inspiration
I cant help laughing. The japanese guy dont understand a word of what Paul say, but he nod and smile like crazy like "Of course dude" every time Paul say something. Priceless.
Love paul . Very humble person
MUITO BOM!!! COOL... ❤🤘🎸
He's great.
One of my heroes that's why I have his guitar
Awesome video
He’s such a humble bloke
Paul Gilbert is the only guitarist I know who uses stacked drive pedals like that and still sounds better than alot of other players tones.
David Enoch ya, I tried my boss super od with a the boss distortion ds1, through a rack eq into a two notes cab sim, didn't sound bad
Chris Oliva from Savatage did it, too. He used 2 Boss DS-1 in series in front of a Marshall 1959 (although he had a Laney-endorsement, i know a couple of ppl who saw him playing back then, and he never used a Laney).

Through the Marshall 1959s. Clean amp. Stacked drives. Repro 1959s.
This humble guy rules
You're awesome Paul 🤘
TC is also awesome 🤘
Damn Mr Gilbert is so engaging that it took me until the very end to realise the elephants in the background! 😂
So simple but so great... 👍
He's got an ancient A/DA flanger on there,and I though I was the only guy that still had an original.I bought mine in 1981 I believe.
He's amazing!!!!
Loved that he busted out 'Walking on the Moon', probably my favorite Police song
Pleasant personality
His tone sounds great
Never thought I'd see Paul play the Opeth tune at 2:07, great taste!
It's Robin Trower - Bridge of Sighs not Opeth.
what a legend
ポールって、ほんといい人だよね。。
Genius Paul Gilbert
PG, just the best!
A true rock star maestro
😢 Paul is amazing st interviewing himself.
Great guy. No questions needed! :) The "interviewer" is actually a human mikestand with a funny hairdo.
Legend
A genuinely nice person, no egotistical maniac here considering he is a phenomenal player.
Nice
