Great playing and lesson. I wish I knew about speed bursts 25 years ago. I always tried to get faster with playing very slowly... It's great that you not only show licks, but also how to practice them correctly.
That burst practice tip will be the golden egg for some people. That was exactly how I learned to play the intro to Cowboys from Hell, learn it as 3 parts, (1-4 twice on top string was part 1. 1 on A string and 4 on E twice was part 2, and 1-A, 4-E, 2-A, 4-E was part 3.) And I played until I could do each part isolated at quite a bit faster than the actual song, and once I had those down, put them all together at the tempo of the actual song, which was technically slower then what I could play them isolated. It's a super useful way to do it in my experience.
Subscribed. Everyone round of applause on straight to the point passionate teaching. Coolest thing about guitar there are endless ways to get notes out of it.
As a guitar instructor at Guitars for Vets in Canada, I have to say this is passionate teaching, and skilled at instruction, through real demonstration, just enough theory, and killer player capability. Kudos!
Great post! The licks are great. I’ve never had a name for it, but I use the speed bursts regularly. Even just trying to attach a shift from one position to another. Pick the 4 notes and nail the shift. Then work on the next four or whatever. Great technique
Awesome! for me, if i play the first note from the next beat, it helps putting the positions together. then i like to put together 2 beats at a time, and keep increasing the length of what im playing until i have the whole lick. like i said, full video on this coming soon :D
Excellent sequence ideas, definitely in the style of Gilbert, but has your own inflection which it should of course. I can appreciate lessons like this one, as they teach originality as well.. good work 👍👍
Thankyou for the kind words! glad you found it helpful too. for sure i'll cover Paul Gilbert again, and include more of his pure alternate picking stuff :D
Thank you for the exercise for increasing speed. Speed bursts are something I've tried and heard of. But most of the time when I try to improve my picking speed, I'm mainly practicing riffs/ solos or songs a lot slower. Whereas I have seen quite a few lessons explaining that you actually need to push yourself past what is comfortble ( within reason) to actually speed up when you reach a certain level. I don't want to be stuck around 110 / 120 bpm for all of time. Excellent video, thank you for the tabs and for explaining everything so clearly. I appreciate that you give tabs for free and don't ask me to join or sign up to anything. I'll be subscribing ! Anyway , this is an incredible lesson to make for free. I hope your channel continues to grow, you deserve it! :)
As a few people said, PG picks everything and is a master picker. This is more a hybrid between picking and legato. But it’s still good. I prefer to pick everything if I can.
I'm getting my metal back after 20+ years, I realise I need some help as my shred abilities are rusty and full of bad habbits. This has helped me a huge amount.
Hey man, how happy are you with the Charvel? I’m looking to get a DK24, since its like a baby Guthrie Govan signature 🤣🤣🤣 Are you happy with the single coil sound?
When we say Shredding on guitar, usually we mean playing lots of notes really fast while soloing. and then the techniques are the things i talk about in this video, such as note divisions, note choice, alternate picking, legato etc. Hope that helps :)
Thank you so much , yes your video helps a lot, when you have time i would like to see steve morse style techniques have a wonderful day THANK YOU !!!!@@fulltimeguitar
I’d like to learn more about that Paul Gilbert scale. I remember reading about the EVH scale years ago, but it wasn’t very useful. I think that needs a whole video.
In the original cut of this video i had a whole 2 mins going through that scale/shape. RUclips retention is brutal tho lol, and you are right it needs its own video. In short, its a mixture of mostly minor blues and dorian :)
Can you demonstrate Pauls "signature lick". The one you hear most of nearly everytime you see him play.Ive seen other people try to teach it, but they didnt do it too well. You seem like you would make it more clear.
I would need to know precisely which lick you are talking about. theres one pure alternate picking one, and theres one which is mixed hammers and pulloffs. if you can send a link so i know, maybe next time i do paul gilbert i can cover it :)
He used to pick everything. Then as he aged/progressed, he started the alternate picking style he is known for. Has a lot of vids here in yt talking about it.
I remember buying RacerX first album 1986? - i was like ok he's my age let's hear it. Fffkk. And then later seeing them live in LA. I was a already a minted YW freak a few years before RacerX, and after the last decade of Ulis and MSG and Iommi, VH and Blackmores. I literally hated PGs tone. Hated it. And i didn't even understand what tone was, but i hated it. Live it was shrinking piercing pain. Great player though i kinda leaned Bulliet, but my accolades go to PG for being the most humble gracious and effective teacher. I had all those VHS, or copied them from friends. It made me a fan of him as a musician and as a person way more than anything. Saw Mr Big open for Rush a decade later por something, people were throwing sht at him ( at a Rush headline show..lol what) But you know what. He smiled dodged and quite literally shredded as Mr Paul Gilbert can do ( better tone too ) :)
Thanks for this story thats amazing. Thats mad about the rush fans throwing stuff at him, and how he responded just staying chilled out. very humbling and inspiring to think about
oh boy, i spend WAY too much time on my lights and other aspects of my production quaility than i probably should as a guitar channel haha. I have about 10 different lights: i large godox 100 watt light with a soft box, small LED panel lights as the fill light, as well as another for a teal backlight and teal on the wall behind the guitars, then some small pocket LED lights on the guitars and whiskey bar, and some cheap LED bar lights one 2 of the shelfs behind my whiskey collection. and dont get me started on my cameras, lens, and colour grading haha
Thank you very much for the detailed answer! 😊 this helps alot. I asked, because i want to create a guitar channel for the german speaking community and i am now struggling with lights 😂 but i love your setup! It looks amazing. And I have the same guitar 😁👍🏻🎸
the charvel is LUSH. im getting the same one again with a fixed bridge in black. there are a lot of great channels to learn videography, i recommend Sam Holland@@Amir-RockstarT
Hi! thankyou! i'm not sure which part you mean by Line 1 and 3. But try playing the video back at half speed and watching my right hand for the up/down strokes. they are pretty intuitive for these licks :)
@@fulltimeguitar I'm sorry to confuse you I was talking about lick2. at 12f E 1st string and 14f A 3st string, did you start with down picking and end with up picking? at fast speed?
i think in lick 2, i start with a down stroke on the high E, then and up stroke on the B, 2 pulloffs, and and upstroke on the G. same for all the positions and speeds @@qpdband
its paul gilbert and his band. i dont know the story behind it, but if you watch "Paul Gilbert Racer X Scarified" the performance i took that from will show up. PS i hope you watched past 9 seconds haha
@fulltimeguitar LOL, Yes I went back and looked at it. It's a Rif, that's kind of like what I started back in 2013 and it works well on stage jumping around, but my guitar tuning is completely off from the norm, and a mix of 10#gage drop D mids 9#Gage, B and last E are 8#gage, but that Orange astronaut suit cracked me up. It's a grate video you made, and I was like. Oh WOW! Someone does doing almost the same thing. Keep up the awesome work. Bigbird
Thanks so much! glad you liked it. i hadn't considered how it would be to play in an orange jumpsuit. some of the shots in the intro might not alyways line up with the audio, because i wanted to make sure i was always showing paul gilbert playing and not his band haha@@bigbird-xm
Tired is good. Do it again next day as long as you can and you go a bit longer. Next day longer and soon BAM all day. Fingers are weird - you MUST put the time in but you DO notice real soon like next day when you put the time in. I do p-offs with ring and pinky now - and those 2 fingers couldn't do SH*T before I decided to try - 1st day nada, 2nd day got about 3 clean reps, next day about 6 good p-offs and all of a sudden the easy fingers 1st, 2nd and middle could do pull offs a lot faster and stronger and the "dumb" fingers felt like newborn damn fingers in about a week. Like gaining 2 new weapons 40% more fingers. The thing is to just do it for a couple days and you FEEL the diff right away. The pinky could literally only do ONE weak ass pull off first day - would've given up but next day the damn thing did like 3 so on we went !!!
first off, thanks for watching! There is a lot of reasons why our notes might sound different. But for getting nice clean hammers and Pull-offs, a great exercise is just to trill between different combinations of fingers. my video with randy Rhodes on the thumbnail shows this. and your endurance and efficiency will improve over time :)
OMG bro you just made my day. Thats AMAZING. I'm going to have to feature this in an upcoming video if i play this patern again. thanks so much haha@@cowondeso
@@leninefect fair enough, I promise I stole all this from PG haha. I’m doing more videos on him soon, including much requested pure alternate picking stuff that I didn’t have time for in this video
Thank you for understanding the importance of what we're saying. We put a lot of thought and effort into our content, and it means a lot to have viewers like you who appreciate that :)
You are second person to say this, and to be fair, Paul Gilbert is famous for his alternate picking and i maybe should have mentioned it at least once in the video so thanks for pointing it out.... that said, if you watch the tokyo solo, or the solo for scarified, its like 80/20 these types of licks vs pure alternate picking. DW i will be covering alternate picking a LOT, its one of the most misunderstood techniques in modern rock guitar IMO :)
i havent heard that episode, but that is what im saying. maybe 80/20 in favour of legato most the time. but his alternate picking is awesome too haha, so i'll be covering that soon
So? It's the same thing just with different technique. Legato/economy picking is a good skill to have. Just alternate picking everything sounds stale and robotic, using all of them together makes good phrasing and a better sound imo. Seen tons of guys that can speed pick perfect but can't bend a note in key, be humble.
wow ... playing 5,6,7 on one string makes theorywise no sense ? are you so fast playing that the disharmoic can not been heard?.. ive never seen that before. or maybe im just confused right now .. anyway i signed instant . tahnk you very much for your content
Thank you for sharing your feedback, helps me to find things to improve. I understand it goes a bit fast, but i target intermediate/ advanced players and also youtube retention is brutal lol. Also if you get time, please link me to a video with easier camera angles so can get ideas to improve. cheers :)
This was a great lesson, ignore the above comment. Camera angles were fine, though the kind of diagonal angle wasn’t necessary. Thanks, I’ll learn anything Paul Gilbert style!
Yeah these are all learnable techniques. i would say partly unconsciously, but some of his techniques he talks about in his own instructional content. hope you found this helpful :)

Most important factors to consider is muting and picking pattern.

I LOVE Buckethead. Especially his solo on Jordan for Guitar hero :D
Colorado bulldog ,technical difficulty ,scarified still so very hard for me.
yeah it will still take time, but with the right approach we can get there :)
Even at slower speeds I can't make the notes sound like yours. I think I am trying too hard with my pulloffs so my fingers get tired.

Yeah these are all learnable techniques. i would say partly unconsciously, but some of his techniques he talks about in his own instructional content. hope you found this helpful :)
I've found the MAB (Speed Kills) lessons to be the most effective for fast guitar playing.
