I don't know if anyone else notices this but this is the only video that shows Paul playing Scarified with the camera focused directly at his hands the entire time. If anyone wants to see how Paul plays Scarified, this video is by far the best for practice and slowing down. I think the camera man deserves an award.
Yes but Paul really altered/slowed down the solo, so it's kind of disappointing and not very accurate. This 1987 video, although somewhat out-of-focus, seems to focus on PG and BB when they solo: ua-cam.com/video/iOW_-OESnq0/v-deo.html
@@RecoveringReporter - That makes it easier to slow it down and see how he's actually playing it then. No point in seeing his fastest version filmed with a low quality camera that's 50 feet away. This version is a far better one to learn and practice, once you've mastered this song, then you can challenge yourself to see if you can keep up with the fastest version. Besides, you can always speed up this version and make far faster than the old live one.
+TruthSurge I can tilt my guitar any way - upside down, or inside out...I will never be able to to anything like that. My fingers are just not long enough :/
For all the little handed people doubting yourselves to play this song. Look up 11 year old Anton Oparin playing Scarified. If his "then" little boy fingers can play this song very accurately. So can you.
Funny thing thought, Paul himself says he doesn't play at 100% because if you need to speed up a little you won't have room, so he plays at around 80% to 85% potential just in case he has to step on the gas he'll have plenty of potential. I play at 100% all the time and it's still not good enough, Paul doesn't play at full potential and he's still at God tier level. I'm raging with envy.
GoSTeX - Fun | Gaming Exactly ! They are perfect ! Everbody is talking about his alternate picking, but I think I like him even more for his bends and vibratos!
Guess what happened in our guitar heads when we got this song on a record inside of Guitar Player magazine 1988/89. One of this guitar moments one lived through.
Excellent !!! His picking technic is always, for me, the best and so perfect....he can change sound by whanging just a little th picking attack angle to bruch or to cut...or falt...I m rellay scared by all the job during all these years....and to always see him so simple and cool.. Great musician and human being...
Has anyone noticed that whatever amp Paul plays through, whether its a Marshall, Laney, Boogie. He sounds exactly the same? He's playing through a Road King in this video. AMAZING!!! If thats not pure mastered technique then i don't know what is.
You should listen to PG talk about how he played for the first several years. Its hillarious how bad he said he was in the beginning. He must have had a very good teacher at University.
Damn 2007 days haha im just only 7 at that time i start play guitar at 11 years old i lately discovered paul Gilbert around 2015 2016 i guess in teen ager days
They do its true,don't get me wrong even people with below average/smaller hands can get just as good as this technically and even in general shredding/hand/picking speed,but I think its fair to state that those with large hands and very long fingers like Gilberts Pinky for example definitely have a legit advantage over others for sure, He still puts in just as much practice time as anyone, if not more!,but it's likely that he was able to do more complex patterns/movements/arpeggios etc quicker and more efficiently with greater speed earlier and quicker than say someone with little girly man hands could lol.
1,5 are played which leaves modes completely out because minor nor major really exsists when the 7th or ,3rd is not added.i went to git with gilbert and assure you he transposed minor to major and starts his scales off all major related keys.saying i play in gmajor start a solo on a gmajor chord play a 5 4 back to 1 "gmajor" and resolve on a 5th or a gnote even e note is correct when your speaking of modes which are scales within scales.but modes are based on the chord progression in that key.
I see Paul is using a Mesa Boogie Road King there. Sweet amp, but i think Rivera are the most underrated amps. And before someone say Mesa Boogie are the best, i would like to point out that Paul Rivera made amps for Mesa Boogie. Check them out!!!
Just lightly touch the string [don't fret it] on the third fret of the D string. He usually picks it from the other side of the string [closer to the nut] but I'm reasonably sure it'll work from either side. He might have gotten the A# harmonic in there too, for that you'd have to get the 3rd fret of the G string when you pick the harmonic.

Lol it may not be the original, but man I definitely would not call it disappointing. This one has more musicality to it IMO. @@RecoveringReporter
lol! "Not very accurate..."@@RecoveringReporter
I love Paul Gilbert. I love this song. I will learn this song, and then I will die.
Ravi Teja I just learned it and the hardest part is definitely that last string skipping arpeggio sequence. it's a bitch lol
do you pick everything? cant find proper tabs
kotdrauf no its legato. it'll be almost impossible to pick all of it haha
R.I.P.
Paul teaches the arpeggio outro section in this vid - ua-cam.com/video/oKvIAuXMl7U/v-deo.html
3:04 haha when PG has to tilt the guitar up like that to get the reaches, what chance do mere mortals have???
+TruthSurge he actually learned to do it without having to do it anymore.
+TruthSurge I can tilt my guitar any way - upside down, or inside out...I will never be able to to anything like that. My fingers are just not long enough :/
+MrCorvusC yep. long fingers are better I think. So, do what you can and don't lose sleep over it.
I have fairly small fingers and I can do it don't doubt yourself! 👍
For all the little handed people doubting yourselves to play this song. Look up 11 year old Anton Oparin playing Scarified. If his "then" little boy fingers can play this song very accurately. So can you.
The person yelling Scarified was me lmao Paul was a class act! Still signed all my stuff!
It's called Scarified because when you try to learn this song, all the shredding makes you shit your pants.
There´s a German in the crowd, shouting: "SCARRRIFIED... YESSS, YESSS!"
i just know he sat in that crowd and watched in awe
Not a German; it was me an excited California fan lmao.
@@darkinglory 😂👍
Paul Gilbert is a true master and one of my favorite guitarist!
''I'll do my best to play it with my ibanez guitar'' He nailed every part of it! xD
Funny thing thought, Paul himself says he doesn't play at 100% because if you need to speed up a little you won't have room, so he plays at around 80% to 85% potential just in case he has to step on the gas he'll have plenty of potential.

Paul maked that riff so amazing
Unbelievable playing. Gilbert is a God. And, my Lord, are his hands huge! Alien like fingers. 😳
He has put those blessed hands to use.what a perfect name for that song
that last lick... HOW DOES HE DO IT?!?!?!
this is crazy...the rythym riff to this song could be a solo in itself
Yes even its already 15 year's still love it haha
This Never gets old-LOL
He is the best!! i wish i could see him live!!
This is simply mindblowing…eternally
Paul Gilbert is unbelieavable!...he's the master!..Thank you Paul for sharing your talent!..We love you here in the Philippines!!!
Bow down to the God that is Paul Gilbert
i've had an incredible pleasure seeing Paul live in Chicago during G3 tour.
I love his vibratos. ^.^

A great song to practice for those who want to become half as good as Paul Himself.
omfg the last bit from 3:04 . psycho hand movements and with the shadows from the fingers across the the fretboard it looks CRAZY. guitargod!
Man this shit still blows my mind. I remember trying to learn this via this video when I was 15. Turning 30 this year, picking up where I left off!
Yep, that's PURE skills!!!
@RARECANDYBAR
Well if you open your ears, I don't think your mind will follow. It'll get blown away from the sheer awesomeness that is Paul Gilbert.
this guy rocks! hes amazing at guitar
O.O that is one godly pinky!
Absolutely terrifying technique, makes me shiver!!
Well don't you guys know that Buckethead is Paul's student?
I do bro.
MrFDeath thanks, bro
i just love the way his fingers look when he plays fast! They look so cool
Paul's fingers are our of this world!!
Great footage thanks:]
that pinky is out of this world
You bet your ass "WOW"! Unbelievable. Paul is THE BEST. Period.
My idol..the best playing guitar..
Excellent !!! His picking technic is always, for me, the best and so perfect....he can change sound by whanging just a little th picking attack angle to bruch or to cut...or falt...I m rellay scared by all the job during all these years....and to always see him so simple and cool.. Great musician and human being...
Is that pinky a foot long?
I think he cloned his pinky and then had it attached to his real pinky to create a super pinky.
I heard he had face hugger legs graphed to his hands.
5 inch pinky
Videos shot by guitarists are the best; what do we need to see his face for, 3 minutes of his hands will do just fine!
True master of guitar!
Damn, this is my first time ever hearing this song... WOW
rigth now i'm with my mouth open... no words.
Ouchhh.....so humble at the start and then breaks out with the shred....awesome!!!
A guitarra fica pequena na mão do Paul, incrível.
His fingers so damn cool to watch while shredding
Paul Gilbert is the shit. Best guitarist there is
"YES" "YES" he is!!
he is like a god
Open your ears and your mind will follow!!
That's a pinky of the gods right there.
What's nuts is that his bassist matches him note for note at some places when he needs to.
Has anyone noticed that whatever amp Paul plays through, whether its a Marshall, Laney, Boogie. He sounds exactly the same? He's playing through a Road King in this video. AMAZING!!! If thats not pure mastered technique then i don't know what is.
Oh my God!!! :°°°°° Shivers....
Erhhh....okay.I guess you seem to live with that without feeling inadequate.Way to go dude.
His fingers remind me of "Alien" movie. Thanks Paul Gilbert for all UA-cam videos and guitar lessons.
YES! YES!
That "Yes!" kills me everytime I hear it..xD
You should listen to PG talk about how he played for the first several years. Its hillarious how bad he said he was in the beginning. He must have had a very good teacher at University.
HIS HAND IS A TARANTULA!!!
wow. that crowd is EXTREMELY enthusiastic
Damn 2007 days haha im just only 7 at that time i start play guitar at 11 years old i lately discovered paul Gilbert around 2015 2016 i guess in teen ager days
Simple. The best. LOVE U .no 💕game no play.
wow.
their speechless
DAMMIT!!! I was gonna go to this show!!!
I am scarified of this becoming a Guitar Hero track and never being able to finish it
ROCKING
@FizzOfInsanity hey me too and i fuckin love this man and his genius hands
Guitarrists born with pinky x-mutant gene such as PG surely have advantages :)
Rafael Vasco word up. His small finger is grossly large

his hands are like australian spiders
absolutely right : )
That slow section gave me goosebumps
OHHHH!!!!!! Eres un crack!!!
He makes it look so daamm easy! :D
amazing!
He is supercool...how easily he played it...
i miss white ibanez paul gilbert :(
the kid in the audience who says "yes YES!" is a spaz.
for 2007 video looks good!
Paul Gilbert u
n ejemplo como músico y como persona!.
I'm sure he didn't have to. Paul has been with ibanez for over 25 years, and has his own signature model with them.
His tone here is ludicrous
Let's cry together.
you know it's hard when Paul himslef hopes to play it well!!!
@GoatMT It means that the key of the song is in F sharp, not the tuning.
This is a Racer X song, it's called... Scarified
@Sike! that's the wrong number it's a quote dummy
The lick from 3:04 on. Fucking hell I love it. I could listen to it all day...*drool*

I tried playing this. My fingers fell off...
andriuchaMetal How are you typing then m8?
+No Name Using his nose probably
Speech to text?
My fingers don't do that.
Fuck I would love to see something like this and really be there....wow.
Like a clinic with both Paul and Billy...that would be so cool
SICK
Paul is the shit.
*song ends* "yes! YES!" lol god that guy is such a winner
@qyasser Eb/F#, Finally, someone who actually studied music theory.
in just a blink of an eye, his hands would be in the other part of the fretboard. it's like teleporting
10% of his ability to me, God please!
идеальный переменный штрих !!))
@mike86325 I have to say the camera work and sound are awesome...you rule
Dam!!!
