I went to Paul's parents house in our late teens. He played some VH for me and he played my Iceman 100. His bands Giant and Tau Zero were great! So proud of him.

Dude was born a baddass. It's one thing to be fast but it's a whole other level to be fast and pristine clean.

Well, it's 100% result of relentless practice. Doubt he was born that way, other than the musical ear to hear the difference between clean and unclean. But you and I hear it too

[@rferguson3]

That is absolutely untrue. The way you perceive, that is. He most definitely out in a fucking TON of practice. You're just seeing the results of said practice. And that's not to take anything away from his massive talent, either. It's not hard to find vids where he talks about woodshedding like a mf

Awesome instructional video. I still have all my VHS instructional videos from the early 90s. Paul Gilbert, Frank Gambale, Eric Johnson and Al Di Meola. The things is, it was the little tab book that came with the video that was synonymous with gold. Even though you can find all of those exercises if not most online I can't bring myself to throw it out. I still have tons of guitar one and guitar world magazines. Shredder 4 Life

[@Bill628]

Your welcome

[@Cantstandtherock]

I love the guys that watch George Lynch and say hes a "genius". Paul IS a genius and the nicest rock star I think I have ever met. He doesnt bury his playing in a bunch verb and delay, he's as clean as clean gets, tight smokin speed and accuracy!

[@jimsicle]

Agreed, but Lynch is no slouch though.

[@TrueMetalWarlord]

Gilbert is a faster picker and has great style but Lynch has a very unique style and in his Dokken days wrote some incredibly interesting and tasteful solos with that diminished fifth and amazing pinch harmonics all over the place, They are both great players but don't bash lynch.

[@fistoftulkas7335]

Yep, personally i consider Gilbert the best rock/metal guitarist that ever existed, totally proficient in power-pop, blues, jazz and stuff too... And yes, the cleanest and most accurate playing around, at any speed, with a pure thin tone that doesn't allow mistakes, no one like him, true genius...

[@brighton09100]

The cool thing about this video and what he is teaching you is, you really can make it your own and play these riffs and runs through your own sound and your own style. It sounds 90s and that was the cool thing at one time for a lot of people, but I’m imaging this technique through a vintage fender amp and a good ol les Paul minus the squealing and just clean. Thank you for this video. Great guitar playing. Now all I need to do is find the time to practice these exercises. Haha. ✌️

His discipline level is 9000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

​@vlaskz then you're either not paying attention or not trying. There's a fkn wealth of incredibly useful information here. Exciting lesson for sure. And I also feel like there are basically two types of guitarists. 1) those that see exceptional talent, get discouraged & wanna burn their shit. And 2) those that see it & get super inspired. Def glad I'm not that way. Whether it's a small child absolutely fuckin shredding or a geezer ripping up some bluesy pentatonics, it motivates the hell out of me. Speaking of, I can't wait to get home & try to cop some of this and improve my playing
