    Paul wrote me a letter when I was in the army serving in Desert Storm and send me a cassette tape of Lean Into It for me to listen to on my Walkman. Coolest dude. Down to earth. Amazing guitarist.

      Yes he does. He also teaches in a site called Artisworks and you can send him a video of your playing. He takes the time to respond to your video, calling you out by name, not just a generic video. He is a hell of a guitar player, in the beginning he was mostly shreds but as he grew and matured he went into Jazz and blues which I think made him a better player. Very down to earth.

The scary thing is he’s so gifted musically that anything he thinks he can easily create. And the more you see him in videos like this the more you have to like him. Just seems like an unnecessarily humble guy.

    The Mr. Big song at the end sounds like Paul's impression of a Rick Wakeman Yes breakdown but on guitar 🤣

    I typically hate bluesy solo type things like he's doing, but honestly watching him play has totally made me love it. So much emotion and skill.

    Paul is the greatest! So happy to see the Kikusui Sake guitar again :) I was blown away by it and his performance of Bach Partita Dm when Fuzz Universe came out. It's so cool to see it again :)

    I have seen many talented guitarists live. Tony Iommi, Ritchie Blackmore, Gary Moore, Randy Rhoads, Tom Morello, Bucketheat, Steve Vai, Joe Satriani but Paul Gilbert is the one I remember as just being so obviously excited by the joy of playing guitar. His obvious enthusiasm for his craft and for his instrument was so infectious.
