All in the title.

[@serratoanthony]

Im convinved paul gilbert is the best guitar teacher ever

[@joelflmartinho]

+1

[@NuZTheRockerOFFICIAL]

+anthony serrato That's where the Buckethead started.

[@zainb.9416]

+anthony serrato Guthrie Govan is also great guitar teacher.

*cough*joe satriani*cough*

[@vinurajraj8816]

yup his mind is good

[@jonkautz3716]

3:42 "A happy accident of fingering" ...sounds like my Friday night.

[@SmileNDenile]

beat me to it haha.

[@andyhinds542]

I was thinking the same, lol!

[@turockandar]

This man is not only a great player but a really down top earth and modest human being....if only all great players could be so cool!

[@HouseofBrewz]

Paul is the greatest guitarist EVER, and one of only a handful willing to share his knowledge!! Thank You Paul...

[@sab2871]

Paul Gilbert , cool down to earth guy , really cool dude !! Doesn't suffer from " assholidous / Big Head Syndrome " !

[@ZippyThePinhead]

You gotta love & respect the guy, because he's willing to teach everyone what he knows, and how to do it. He has the desire to help anyone who wants to play get better, and very personable & unassuming while doing it.

[@wyattsprague2218]

Bucket head used to be my favorite guitarist, I don't know how I've gone so many years without hearing this Master class shredder, I learned a lot on my own but this guys videos are super easy to understand, I would be light years ahead if I started learning from this dude.. catching up but will never be anywhere near as good.

[@TenThousandTacos]

It's funny you mentioned that! Paul Gilbert actually was actually Buckethead's teacher and very formative in his development. Bucket talks about it here: /watch?v=otrqEZifHeg

[@TheFleetfingers]

Of all the technically-minded shredders, Paul is the best. He has a fun and expressive vibe about him that I don't get from that Malmsteen fella

[@wolfgang2007aaaaaaaa]

+Alexander Olson Very true. Malmsteen is a showman, not one bit a teacher at all. His funniest videos are his instructional videos where he shows you how fast he can play.

[@yrussq]

Agreed till YM passage. YM has an absolutely different composition of shredding and most of the time PG is worse in that aspect. I'm talking about YM Rising Force stuff. But PG is far superior in many other aspects like impro and not so metal stuff. Imho.

[@wolfgang2007aaaaaaaa]

Yes I agree PG is far superior , the bonus is he is a great teacher, and thats what makes him more interesting than the same'ol neo shred guy that everybody knows.

[@maggyfrog]

as great as malmsteen is, there's something oddly missing in his overall sound. if you don't feel like listening to something that gives you that malmsteen rush, you don't really listen to his stuff. with paul gilbert, i could be in any mood and still want to binge listen to his stuff. also, gilbert is a real artist for not being afraid to evolve and do stuff outside metal shreds. malmsteen is just the same in anything he plays.

[@stacywatts6242]

Paul you are great as always I never get tired of watching you, always something fresh, new and exciting. I'm so glad you never give up but are a true musical explorer an insperation to every aspiring guitarist you truly are one of the greatest players who has ever walked the planet please never stop attacking that crazy noise maker you do it so well stay cool ! Curtis Fordahl a definite student and fan always, I hope you release another album ! Or at least some new songs preforming with a full band if anybody deserves a place in the rock and roll hall of Fame It's you, you have definitely earned to respect to be honored because of all your life changing achievement's you are always a positive roll model and that is something to be proud of, you make us all want to keep on rocking never a full moment I just want to say thank you in case you don't hear it enough, no really, thank you for just being you .

[@sqlsmarty4325]

Not only one of the best players, but one of the best teachers as well. 🎼🎸

[@THALL_1]

for those that wish to know, the reason why all the bends in the key of C minor fit in the key of A minor, is because when bending all the notes in C minor, it bring the 3rd, the 5th and tonic, all into the key of C major(except for C, which would bend into C# or D). In closing, C is A's relative major, which has a lot of functionality.

[@chopinsiblos]

the most comprehensive way of teaching, excellent tut. thanks

[@TheDjangojunkie]

paul gilbert is so awesome!! he really makes guitar playing/practicing fun.

[@zestycarrot]

TYVM!! A lesson which doesn't let too much theory get in the way but instead focuses on listening to what you're playing. Well, played sir.

[@eddiebender8256]

my most favorite guitar player and teacher.

[@llewellynanthonycarr9453]

Mr. Gilbert is not just a Great Guitarist but looks like he's a Down To Earth person!!! Simply Great!!

[@mr_guy661]

Occasionally, I jump to any old note at random and make it bend until it fits in the key lol

[@reiniervanzwieten7092]

3:41 a happy accedent of vingering yup

[@shalomdrawings4627]

Paul be happy, you are making a lot of others happy, thats your licence. Have a great day.

[@MrEdongzki]

a great teacher..

[@greggyk1]

I wish paul was my uncle Jimmy. I love watchin' your lessons Paul, keep up the good work and keep on teaching. We really appreciate all you do for us out here. I do anyway.

[@chisao101-gaming7]

8 people are unappreciative of great lessons from a true professional with a great attitude. :/

[@zainb.9416]

+chisao101 don't mind them

[@rexjansen356]

I find this man so good at teaching his way of playing guitar clear and concise I'm not really into shredding type guitar but no denieing the value of what he says or his techniques thanks Paul

[@WarPede]

maybe they had an unhappy accident of fingering?

[@Fromaginator]

"A happy accident of fingering" -greatest sentence ever in a guitar lesson

[@sykodx469]

3:08 did his guitar just get censored there? Haha. Paul rocks.

[@ssstevew5714]

I thought the same thing.. lol

[@transcendentrock6551]

My favorite guitar player pg 👍👍

[@fishmonkey74]

Thank you Paul. You are the man !!! With the Masterplan

[@JosephJoestar888]

man seriously thanks paul , if it werent for u man i would have never got back to guitar and im inspired more to play and be atleast 10% of u if i can

[@RedzyVernville]

Paul thanks for continueing to teach..You are a good teacher...Sometimes I'm looking for just SOMETHING and lots of times I know I can come to a Paul Gilbert video..Or my teacher Greg Howe who no longer lives around my area..bummer...

[@thorndog100]

I love Paul... He is just tooooooooooooooooo Awsome...

[@masterofmuppets86]

Greatest, no. Most likable with amazing chops. YES

[@danaeverhart6487]

He’s highly trained and motivated, with max skills and talent that we all want!

[@baymahardhika8563]

If I play with this guitar tone I would think "Crappy trebly garbage" But somehow sounds great when Paul play it

[@wyattsprague2218]

Bayu Mahardhika amazing listening to him with no effects, then when you hear buckethead you get Paul Gilbert on steroids

[@tomh4244]

@@wyattsprague2218 And then, this guy mentioned bucket head...

[@livingbeing1113]

@@wyattsprague2218 If by "Paul Gilbert on steroids" you mean drunk, sloppy and far less accurate haha.

[@58Morvan]

Yeah, he's just awesome, he understood all about music and communication.

[@stephenbrooks7238]

Totally with you S. Haugen, the bflat is ridiculous!!

[@danielluismonzonmolfino1481]

Sin duda un genio!!!! con que simpleza logra tanto!!! arriba Paul..... Maestro!!!

[@McGuire40695]

You know, Paul is a really relaxed and enjoyable guitarist. I've been watching quite a lot of his videos to sort of "get into" his playing style and see what he's doing. =P

[@okmefirst]

I usually hate shreddy guitarists, but Paul is just so great. He's such a down-to-earth guy.

[@lesurferdargent3662]

This guy is just GREAT

[@kakarotkakarot177]

He even uses True temperament frets on paper

[@TruthSurge]

hehe he says to hammer pulloff it sounds smoother then he proceeds to pick each note. ?

[@JohnSikes73]

one of the greatest......

[@SeamusMcMichael]

Awesome!!

[@musicisthebestF]

He actually was Guitar Teacher at the age of 19 and he gave Buckethead some lessons He also gave lessons to Bruce B.the 2 nd Racer X guitarist

[@El_Rebelde_]

When he said rhombus I fucking died. That was too funny.

[@23randyl]

Paul is the best lead guitar teacher in youtube!..

[@91804893]

Master...

[@danaeverhart6487]

Paul Gilbert knows his shit!

[@The13thDimension]

Woah..! I'm speechless... T_T TOTALLY ROCKING!

[@MikeNeedlerMusic]

3:43 LOL "a happy accident of fingering" just sounds hilarious to me

[@davisdeen-ty4so]

A MONSTER 🎉

[@TheAndrei1960able]

Thanks for video lesson, it was cool)

[@wakingupfrom]

i actually remember how to play guitar again after watching this. if you're in a slump like i was this will get you ripping on guitar again

[@WeCameInSquarePants]

there is actually theory to the bends... NONE THE LESS! this is a great lesson :)

[@fabianv209]

it's so funny to learn with paul jajaja who does not learn like that, thanks for sharing :)

[@startreker8591]

thnx for sharps and flats.. curious creativity!

[@veritechzero]

Actually lots of amazing guitarist love to share their knowledge, its just only a handful have a talent for being able to do so in a way that makes sense to the rest of us haha.

[@ToddPoore1]

paul gilbert shreds!!

[@hectormorales5974]

Thanks master

[@ELgobstopper]

feeling , bending , mix it up, down bends ,up bends , go off.

[@sinqros]

I've been studying his Racer X Licks since 1988 🏁

[@davearazmoamericanrockscho2338]

paul was fucking with my fog machine in Miami at a gig in 1990.

[@kurtexestandarte9168]

bravo amego paul gilberto s my mentor idol dudes...")

[@glenn2376]

Guitar secret: straight pinkies are a recessive phenotype. 3/4 of humans have an inward curve to their pinkies. Paul Gilberts are straight.

[@nayob]

"A Happy Accident of Fingering" Sounds like a cool Band Name

[@germanb37]

excelente

[@jgmopar]

Dimebag was good at those weird bends in his music

[@robertboyland426]

jgmopar dimebag was good at everything

[@jgmopar]

Yes he sure was. Can not arguee with that

[@rangerrange5232]

Guitar guru😎

[@markmende]

He is scary good. But I find it interesting that his volume knob is on the bottom. I've never noticed that before!

[@HNKaan]

that sounds interesting (understatement).......

[@akajimaro]

"I love the sound of that! I just want to bend everywhere!" Only Paul could say that and sound cool.

[@Jake875801]

@ewoxor i agree. no bashing on Paul. It's a bit of a pet peeve of mine, haha.

[@brendanmoore5456]

Maniacle bend

[@gerenhill]

What a great way to play yourself out of a sour note, just bend it to sweetness!

[@souravroy2609]

Wow

[@mr_guy661]

So many bends, I turned gay

[@CoryFinchProductions]

I couldn't stop laughing when he bent that B flat really hard to make it work. Lol...

[@Shreddergilbert]

Im just guessing here but could this be a video about guitar excercises :O , By the great GiLBERT

[@Fromaginator]

true

[@ELgobstopper]

great vid, i need to pause this ,back up too much when trying to get it. but i play with feeling and somewhat stay in the root key and off. i know its not right probably, but i think a have possibility. peace.

[@AlmostEd1]

I hate to say it because I love Paul but he was wrong about his happy accident with the cm. those notes all fit into A blues cause you're bending all those notes into A major tones. C into C#, Eb into E, and G into A. A C# and E make up an A major triad. It's a sweet way of looking at it but it's not just a happy accident!

[@Veaseify]

er, if you buy the dvd you get tab, thats why it says Figure 1C etc..

[@BrewokGanas]

what does he say for his left hand? calusus?

[@yrussq]

Bending sounded absolutely Queens of stone age-ish.

[@brtmont]

thats what she said.. no really ,she did say that...

[@ROSSI_FPS]

5:35... Oh man that Bb makes me laugh hard, look to his face...

[@yngwiej.malmsteam3173]

My father was a great guitar player. When I was 8, he said "My son, you were a happy accident of fingering."

[@pulidomi]

un guitarrista muy bueno,me gustaria que estubiese traducido al español

[@jernejification]

TOK A LOT OF RIGHT HAND MEMORIE

[@specthanatos]

This dude is jesus! He can turn everything into freaking juice!

[@SuperSossossos]

he actually does that in his lessons so we can hear the notes he plays more clearly ;)

[@SuperInstaGib]

I think part of the issue is the cheese grater that they filmed this with.

[@jonoce633]

my calluses disappeared but my fingers dont feel the pain anymore

[@sebastianrognlien6198]

4:50 Paul goes full bucket head

[@TheAgentAssassin]

since I can't read a lick of music I've always bent strings anyplace on the neck in tune to the chord being played , I thought this was just normal

[@fobsternd]

yay 2 licks for the price of 1!

[@Buyskruit]

It's so you can hear the notes clearly

[@ELgobstopper]

u are awsome, but i go by my ear and play with feeling and use my fingers and still need to learn more chords and everything else , but i love your vid ty . peace.

[@sebastiansavalli8109]

Paul say Rumbus again😂😂😂😂

[@meanbeats]

Its uncomfortable for me to palm mute on a flying v or rr signature, to be honest they're both very uncomfortable all around but they look soo cool

[@CoryFinchProductions]

I came down here to say the exact same thing.. Damn you... lol
