Hot off the heels of releasing The Dio Album, Paul Gilbert stopped by Sweetwater Studios to talk all things riffs, gear, and the legacy of the late Ronnie James Dio. Oh, he also treated us to a searing performance of his cover of Dio’s “Holy Diver,” aided by Sweetwater’s own sound hounds Nick Bowcott, Don Carr, Nick D’Virgilio, and Sweetwater Sales Engineer Andy Rice, on guitars, drums, and bass, respectively. Besides honoring Dio’s extensive catalogue of timeless tunes, Paul took a distinct approach to voicing by eschewing vocals and expressing those lines on the guitar, resulting in a unique take on these classic tracks that retains the unbridled spirit that defined Ronnie James Dio’s work throughout his life. Take a listen!

Absolutely ridiculous that something this good is on the promo channel of an online gear retailer. Kudos.
He plays so darn clean on everything! Rest of the band killing it too, Nick!
@@hon8177 So true!
I think Vivian Campbell was 17 when he wrote this solo.
that is amazing!@@felipez7113
Who's playing bass
Relevant to my interests.
You play guitar? More importantly, do you shred? :DD
Why i season my fretboard
Paul Gilbert once again proving that he is really the greatest
For a guy who built himself on being a warp speed shredder, these days you see him noodling a lot more blues based, soulful licks, then exploding into shredder phrases that surprise you, and are placed with taste and excellent choice. His musical maturity astounds me.
@@GeneralTHC”then exploding into shredder phrases that surprise you” I think they were noticing that for sure. The shredding is more impactful now because he’s just got such a balanced approach in the last 10 years as compared to his younger days
Ya, great phrasing for sure!!!
Ralph Machio already won the duel against the devil. he beated the devil so bad that he became a spiritual guy, one of the most respected guitar virtuouso ever.
I saw Paul play with Racer X at Jezebels in Anaheim when he was about 18 years old, he was all the talk in the So Cal scene. But I think Mr. Big tempered him, and he took his cues from Eddie Van Halen who never did the incessant noodling himself.
One of the greatest guy in electric guitar world. Not just for his talent but also personality
Paul Gilbert is the guitarist I would take to a duel with the devil.
He possibly is the best shredder ever, and yet still a virtuoso in any genre you can think of.
Depends if the Devil demands odd note groupings I go with Eric Johnson though :P
And it it needs to be stegatto only that he wanted to hear I'd call Yngwie :P
But it it's stegatto and legatto than definitely Paul
God, I miss Ronnie so much. He always treated me like family…and I will remember that about him forever. 🤘🏼🙏🏼
paul gilbert is the guitarists' guitarist, his approach to the way he plays is masterful and a true guitar hero. love you Paul!!!
I think Paul just hears music differently than us meer mortals. To nail all those "in-between" and slightly out of tune micro tones to match the vocal is just beyond amazing. I've always been a fan, but this is like next level.
Paul's tone is phenomenal!
Bro you're spot on cos i'd never imagined that he'd maintain the same tone watching him Paul on videos and RUclips until i'd got to see him and Mr. Big live in my state of NAGALAND India .
His intonation is spot on too through the slide playing, bends and harmonizing.
@@marcwillhite7967 lol you seriously telling me you can hear the accuracy of his intonation on a youtube video? Sorry but i have a hard time believing that
I can't stand his tone from the last decade or so, too muddy, soft, no bite, doesn't work for his playing. His abilities are always on point and fantastic but i miss the sharp shred tone he used to have, the last time he sounded good was around 2010 when he was experimenting with single coils.
@@yoteslaya7296LOL
One of the most hardworking and talented guitarists on earth paying homage to the greatest heavy metal vocalist of all time. Thank you so much Mr. Gilbert. I’ll never forget the first time I heard you play many years ago now and you’re still utterly awe inspiring to me! Thank you for everything.
Who's Rob Halford, Ian Gillan... then? DIO may have been the greatest to you, but given the sum of parts that make a good singer, DIO didn't have it all, nor in exactly the same way as others, and a portion of it is also subjective to the listener. He was great for sure, but I wouldn't call him the greatest, and there's no real way to narrow it down to just one "Greatest singer" anyhow. I can say that on "Sad wings of destiny" Rob Halford gives very many singers of varying styles a run for their money. He uses every technique in the book and then some on that album, and much of it is totally 🤯!
Him and Marty Friedman... guitarists blessed by Gods
* handworking
Paul is far from the most talented guitarist out there. Very far. He plays fast and that is about it. All his best songs of his entire career can be counted on one hand.
@@MAGAMANон один из лучших по технике и скорости. Музыка у него тоже отличная, но некоторым может показаться не такой интересной из-за того, что основана на классическом роке и блюзе, он не так часто использует необычные сочетания нот и гаммы, но это не делает его хуже. Многие гитаристы выделяются у чём-то, но они не всегда лучшие во всём
Paul is one of those positive dudes. Such a gifted and dedicated player.
Is Paul the most huggable shredder out there?
Do not hug people you don’t know, that’s how pandemics start 😂
I’ve gotten a hug from the man himself so yes very huggable haha
He sure is!!!
@@alexcorona Based on your screenname I figure you would know 😂
Yes, especially now that EVH passed away, unfortunately.
Long live Dio! Thanks for the album, Paul and thank you Sweetwater for having him here playing it.
PG just shredded the f out of that song... absolutely amazing!
He plays every single note, Dio sing in the song…amazing!
That’s honestly some of the best playing I’ve heard him do. Everybody in the room nailed it 🤘
True that good sir, true that
Absolute mastery. I have seen him live so many times and I don’t think he has ever missed a note
His wrong notes are even melodic and in the key.
Paul is a phenom.🥊
He bends or slides his wrong notes into the right notes!
WOW!!!! This was AMAZING!!!!
Nick BOWCOTT, and Don CARR adding to the shred fest! Face melting Rock and Roll being served up HOT!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️SWEETWATER⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Paul just gets cooler with age.
What a combo! Paul and Nick in the same video!
Paul: You are on fire!!! Soo tastey. . . .. I have been enjoying your incredible playing since "Street Lethal".
Paul Gilbert is one of the finest ever. No question. But shout out to Nick D'Virgilio who just crushes everything he plays. Nick for the win!
Paul Gilbert and Nuno Bettencourt need to team up on an album together.
GREAT! Both humble and virtuoso players, and seem to be great guys who know their history and respect their peers and craft with minimal ego.
That would be EPIC❤
Superb. Again how great was Vivian Campbell who came up with these classic songs on guitar. 🎸
The solo on I Speed At Night still blows my mind.
real great.
Actually all the songs were written before Vivian joined Dio he just played solos over the songs which were great tasteful solos.
Another great guy who can play anything! Met him and had a few mins with him at a Guitar Expo in about '89, very nice guy!
I liked Vivian more in whitesnake
That last lick blew my face off 🤯 So good.
I used to be neighbors with Dios niece. She was cool. And him and my dad share a birthday. I have to remind him these days because of his dementia. But i say, "you know it's dios birthday too, right?" He asks "who is that? " and i just say "holy diiivaah!" And he instantly remembers. If you are remembered by someone with alzheimers, you're a legend
Best living rock and metal guitarist is Paul Gilbert - the articulation of what he is doing is incredible. I was a big fan of him shredding but he evolved into what looks like the best 🙏. With Eddie, Randy, Dimebag gone , now Paul Gilbert holds the torch 🙏.
Did Marty Friedman die? 🤔
@@DANTHETUBEMAN Marty is good, but certainly no match for Paul.
@@darkages9507 right, where is Paul's RUST AT N PEACE level work? 🤔
he ant got it. 😁
@@DANTHETUBEMAN I assume they are friends. Anyways, both are good human beings and guitarists.
BUT, there is an old japanese TV music show video, where Paul is Martys guest.
There is some sort of an improvisation challenge there. Paul literally obliterates Marty.
@@darkages9507 that's your opinion. Marty made a solo album within the last 5 years I think it was, anyways, find it and listen, some of those tracks have the best lead solos ever played. 💥
Paul Gilbert is probably the best guitarist alive!!!! Terribly underrated!!!
Ain't no probably about it
Underrated? Are you joking? 😂
@cybergnetwork588 no. Pretty sure that's not a joke. But fact
lol................pls investigate meaning of 'underrated" fml
he is not underrated at all. lol
legends still got it..
always love paul style and sound..
Mr. Gilbert really is such a pleasure to watch and listen to. 🤘
Very cool interpretation of a classic Dio song. Paul is obviously one of the greats..I still get goosebumps from Vivian Campbell’s playing on Dio’s first 2 solo records. His tone and touch are incredible..not to mention it’s difficult to copy his unique voice and phrasing. Viv is often overlooked in the discussion of all time greatest rock/metal guitarists but he’s right up there in my book!
My goodness, you are made for this girl! Please do the whole album, like a tribute! That line up was a huge promise, and it’s a shame it didn’t last enough. A lot of potential here…
Paul Gilbert is a gem, and rest of the band nailed it too, an electrifying track of the true HM genre
RIP Ronnie Dio,
an all-time great voice and the originator of the horns symbol
My god!!! they sounded like a band that had been together for years. I think it's time to start talking a 'TOUR! '
^this^
Can we talk about how clean that removal of the slide was at 1:52????????
his guitar got a slide holder..
@@idrulidris6404 Neodymium magnet would suffice
Imagine going into work and getting an opportunity to jam with Paul Gilbert? How cool is that??
Paul's album of Dio covers is great!
0:08 this bending is just pure class! slow ascend and perfect vibrato. Hats off
My favorite guitarist and favorite Sweetwater team members crushing it! ❤
Dio would have loved this!!! i saw dio back in the day and a Giant mechanical spider came out of the rafters and had a lazer fight with the guitar player during the solo.
Paul Gilbert is an inspiration to me because like me he has hearing problems but continues to play.
Paul reminding those that may have forgotten, can gunsling with the best of them as he always has from thr beginning. Shout out to Nick and the Amazing Don Carr ... ridiculously good job fellas!
Mr. Gilbert is the best. His technique is just amazing.
Paul playing Ronnie's vocal melodies, that was really cool. The band was solid too! Great performance!
An absolute guitar legend The Maestro Paul Gilbert ❤🤘🏻
the sound was tight and timing was killer! you guys have to do another DIO cover ASAP.
he did a whole dio album
Playing phrases and notes that express and emphasize...so powerful...no mindless flurries here 🔈🎶✌
PG is just amazing !
I listen PG since 1988 and til I die ^^
Thank you Sweetwater. What a way to start the weekend. Stoked🎉🎉🎉
Alright, Awesome Guys!!!! Let's do some more videos like this!!!! Absolutely loved it!!!
What an undeniable giant of a musical genius! Rock on! 🔥🤘💀🤘🔥
I saw Paul Gilbert and Mr big at Cal Expo Amphitheater back in the 80s awesome the guy is incredible
Ronnie James Dio the GOAT RIP
I wish Paul would tell us where he hides the fountain of youth. I swear he doesnt age.
Paul killed it! Is it just me, he looks like a skinny Pablo Francisco.
A Living Legend... this man!
È bellissimo vedere un grande chitarrista pagare un tale tributo ad una delle voci più belle del rock e del metal! ❤
🤘 Paul Gilbert + Dio 🎸 The perfect combination.
You can understand every word this is fantastic being a Dio fan since Elf days.
6 hours since the video was posted and only 40 comments. It's an insult to the genius of Paul Gilbert!
wow! The sound is amazing! The playing is amazing
What a fitting tribute from one legend to another. R.I.P. Ronny James Dio
I saw Paul Gilbert play for Mr. Big at the now extinct "Rocket Club" in Tampa. There were about 20 people. As a bass player it was fantastic being with my best friend from high school, also a bassist, standing about 6 feet away, just watching Billy Sheehan's fingers, trying to figure it all out.
Nice cover. I know everyone sounded great and it is a showcase of Paul Gilbert's playing skills and his new signature model Ibanez guitar, but the sound engineers did a great job on miking the toms and snare so the final mix-down of all the drums and cymbals sounded great.
So true...loved the tasteful precision
Just Wow. Beautiful tribute.
That was clean as usual. That Ibanez is probably one of best looking PG models I have ever seen. I like yellow, my 1st car was yellow.
Vivian Campbell and Paul Gilbert would be a Pretty Lethal Combo Playing Together on the Dio Catalog.
Andy Rice playing and sounding great!!
That's my rep on bass!!!! And as a boy from Southern Illinois, that's my homie on lead.
One of the BEST! Thanks for jamming to DIO!
Thank you for that. AWESOME.
This video is for anyone who has slept on Paul Gilbert. The man can shred.
i love paul gilbert.hands down one of my favorites...i wish he would have stuck closer to vivs solo but i get it
I saw Paul during a G3 tour. One of the great shredders. Super fast on that fret board
I saw G3 too with Satch Vai and Eric Johnson ,So good 😎
PG doing it yet again, like no other. We are blessed to hear such amazing talent and creativity!
UNBELIEVABLE - Gilbert's STILL got IT 🐐 One of the true GOAT's of Shred ... shredding like this possibly every day for the last 40+ years 😯 BADASS phrasing,speed,cleanliness,articulation as EVER ... on guitar dude ain't aged a second... still mind-blowing. Make MORE with Gilbert Sweetwater - dude's a living shredding LEGEND 😎
Awesome !!!! Paul never ceases to amaze me ,
Thanks for the heart .. You should send me a guitar like the one Mr Gilbert played in this video 😉
Paul is the real deal awesome guitarist very humble down to earth keep rocking thank you for your brilliance style's racer x
I'm sure it's great working for Sweetwater but that has to be a top day for everyone involved.
Demos are useful and fun...but jamming on some Dio with Paul Gilbert must've brought out the kid in everyone.
When Paul plays, you know it is going to be good. I enjoyed this and the pocket of the groove was very very enjoyable. Excellent drumming.
Yes, the groove takes this phenomenal playing to another level.
This is art in a piece of art.
Fantastic.
Not only is Paul wearing my jacket, also playing my guitar. Paul Gilbert, I love you.
Amazing. Been a fan forever. Watching his right hand is amazing. Thanks Paul! 🤘
Lovely to hear him doing Heavy Metal Again 😁😁😁😁😁😁🪄🎸
Wow. Paul definitely Rocked the Holy Diver out of it. That was awesome 🙂
That is the most unmetal looking guitar ever. And it makes sense because Paul Gilbert has always been so unique. Here's to never conforming and looking like an absolute beast
Paul is amazing again, as usual. The Dio Album rocks!
That was pretty badass. Dio was my favorite for a long while growing up.
Awsome Love you Paul Gilbert
So sick don and nick jammed on this with him
Devirgilio and Bowcott!
The great Mr. Gilbert!!! One of the most fluid players ever!!
Yes Yes! The man of Guitar Legend is here.. 🎸
Paul Gilbert is one of the best guitarists of our time. Great video Sweetwater!! The band killed it too.
I could watch Paul play literally any genre and be entertained. Dude is amazing.
Stellar. Nice work by all!! 🤘
I humbly bow to this master guitarist! One of my favourite guitarists of all time!
Gotta love Paul ❤, fkn awesome. Toss up between this and John Petrucci's Ibanez days for best ever guitar tone. Love it.
This is just fantastic !
Sweetwater shreds ❤
