Two things about a Paul Gilbert guitar lesson: You can’t help but learn something, and you can’t help but love the guy.

Paul G has such a likable personality, he is a music fan just like all of us. A total nerd lol. He can even appreciate less technical players, because it has soul. Such a likable dude.

Paul is simply too likable of a guy.

This guy is _cool._ And he plays like fire.

So, high pants, apricot fruit rollups, and morph Heartbreaker into Eruption using your elbow. Got it.

Love this guy. Breaks down genius in a way that a regular person can understand and at a minimum get inspiration from.

The Jimmy Stewart of shredders. Utter genius.

That was the most entertaining and fun Hooked episodes I’ve seen. Paul Gilbert is hilarious and extremely educational. Thank you Mr. Gilbert, I’m saving this to my watch list so I cam go back and try and learn that riff.

Paul Gilbert is lightning fast guitarist one of the best in history

The coolest accordion player on the planet right here!!

I have watched Paul Gilbert over the years and his teaching is always the best. His passion for guitar is infectious!

Gotta Love Him! Paul is on a different Level. Also one of the coolest guys on the Planet.

All ways a good time with Gilbert! Led Zeppelin, the greatest band ever!!!

I’m 29, and Heartbreaker was a big part of my childhood too!

One of the best accordion players on the planet! Rock On PG!

Beautifull manchild still keeping the soul fresh and alive! Love this guy.

The Dread Zeppelin version. Once you hear it, you can't un-hear it ever again. 😁 I always thought Paul was a couple of years older than me, but it turns out we're the same age. Damn, we're getting old... 😂

I've never laughed (or learned) so much while drinking a beer after work. Cheers to Paul and Jimmy!

So, the secret has been revealed: low guitar high pants! The clouds have parted and I can see the sun. Fun video

He'll yeah Paul.. .you bring back the goosebumps....

That was great! MORE Paul Gilbert please!!

Paul always brings a smile to my face. A great teacher!

We need more people like Paul Gilbert.

Paul, you are the complete package. Talented, modest, funny and humble. Your wisdom is cherished greatly. Keep blessing us with your knowledge. Thank you

We need a record time podcast with Paul Gilbert and Josh Scott

Man... how nice can be a guitarist? Thanks for sharing your knowledge and your personality! 🙌🏻

I pissed myself laughing! I was roaring, thanks so much sir...great guitar lesson and truly the most entertaining & funniest lesson/video AND playing that gorgeous Artist with tone for days (when in your hands) wow, thanks very much.

You really have to give Paul and every other guitarist killing it on YT the credit they deserve...most have lost a career or taken a huge cut in income, no gigs, concerts, jams. I cant even buy guitar strings in my province (Ontario) because it's nonessential. But turn on yt and here they all are keeping our community strong. Inspiring us all to keep playing.

Two days I’ll remember. I was in HS, playing folk guitar, when my younger brother saved my musical life and dropped the needle on LZII. Blown away ... second day is my teenage son asking me to take him to a G3 show with Satch, Petrucci, and Paul Gilbert. I was only vaguely aware of Paul. It still ranks up there as one a the best shows I’ve ever seen (and I saw LZ at MSG). Everyone love playing guitar, but Paul shows it every moment he’s on stage, or holding one. Or talking about it. I would love to see him and Rick Nielsen get together for a “coffee and guitars” chat.

This guy is a pleasure to watch

Those old Ibanez artist’s were great guitars.

This man is something else! PG is the man... and JP, of course.

I'm sure this has been said before but, the world is a better place with Paul Gilbert.

I can't believe how entertaining this is, he would be the best guitar teacher ever

The middle part of Heartbreaker is why I play guitar!

PG:EVER the gentleman!

We all love you Paul!!

That's what Heartbreaker sounded like to me when I first heard it as a kid.

Great guitar teacher and passionate as all hell!! Thanks Paul!!

Guitar playing aside, Paul has got to be a fun dude to hang out with. Smart as heck and you know he has a warped sense of humor.

I enjoy watching Paul Gilbert. He seems to be a down to earth type of guy.

Paul is awesome. I seen him before with Josh from JHS talking about his fave pedals. I need more PG in my life. Very inspiring!!!!

I don't usually like or comment but I really couldn't help myself - this dude is an absolute geezer

I love Paul Gilbert!!!!

I remember Eddie definitely had the high pants no shirt. And yes apricot was the best roll up by far. LOL

The “Elbow thing” will forevermore be known as GILBERTURE!

Absolutely beautiful! Thank you.

Paul, you are so cool. Thanks for bringing so much enthusiasm to guitar learnin'! it is so contagious.

Paul's attention to detail leaves no stone unturned and your personality I love you man you're such a riot and one of the most gifted guitarist ever. My only problem is Paul you're giving away all the secrets. High pants and low guitar 😄. Us older guys are losing our mojo😭

That was beautiful. Thank you.

So much fun to watch this!!

I was fortunate enough to attend GIT back in ‘87/‘88 when Paul was still, ‘teaching’. This is such a far cry from his shy, awkward self plugged into 2 Peavey bandits in series to get a decent sound. Way to go Pablo!!

Paul is amazing - my favorite guitarist and best online teacher.

love both these guys jimi and paul!!

Love this dude. I watch any and all things Paul G

He's like the teacher who teach the most hated subject but making it fun and you don't hate it anymore.

Paul Gilbert is glorious.

Dude, you kill me. Always a laugh with some good instruction. Thanks for both.

Oh my...!! A big THANKS to Mr. Gilbert as he seems to be the first guy on YT telling the kids how to properly hold a Rock'n'Roll guitar!! Also thanks PG for sharing!

Paul Gilbert. The likeable mad scientist of guitarists.

So awesome! Thank you!

Simply fantastic!!!!

LOW GUITAR HIIIIIGH PANTS 👖 Keep em high and tight Paul

OMG! This is HILARIOUS!!! PAUL IS THE G.O.A.T.

Marshall Bluesbreaker and humbucker's=tonal heaven!

i never listen this solo this clean... wow

Thank you how great the music is.

Without a doubt best video about a legendary Page's style by a legendary Paul Gilbert. Nowadays, it looks like only punk bands do care about the rock'n'roll feel and emotion. The more complex guitar playing involved, the more stiff and frozen guitarist on a stage frightened to miss a note. I worship Page and thankful to Gilbert for spreading what rock'n'roll is really about.

Love PG!!!!!

That was amazing 🤩. Thank you PG ! what enthusiasm! So great to see . Paul is an incredible guitarist such command of his instrument. Love how he sticks with Ibanez by breaking out the artist 🤩. That tone is amazing gotta get me one of those 😜✌🏻

Most entertaining guitar teacher ever. Thanks PG. You too PG.

Best line ever “Imagine putting that in tablature” !

I see cabin fever is alive and well.

Thanks for sharing!

Hey Greensburg, that was fun. Thanks from McKees Rocks :^)

It always cracks me up how Paul plays his own fast thing in between all the phrasing licks when he does covers Pretty cool how he plays Jimmy's pull off lick wrong, it's actually. A C A G, E D , C He is putting an extra note in there His phrasing is spot on I remember some Jimi Hendrix thing he did where he just shredded it to peaces . Amazing . you definitely can't say he wasn't fast enough. He is the top shred guitarist in the world for good reason!

Apricot fruit rolls...they were my favorite. I love your passion and teaching style. Way too many people demonstrate technique without explaining why it's done like it is. I saw Journey and Boston in the 70s but didn't pay attention to the guitar placement versus britches height, kicking myself now. Keep on Rockin'!

Ha ha ha ha. What a wholesome video!! Great guy. Funny when the reflection of the lights in his glasses makes him look like a crazy person!

This is sweet, thanks Paul. And I'm digging that cool Ibanez.

Looooove that guitar!!

We should cherish this man while we still have him. Lol his tab comments...so true!

So good to see Paul on here. Back in the day l bought the instructional book & cassette version of 'Intense Rock 2' & learnt a heck of a lot from it. From this video l took the big finger & high pants concept & concluded l am the master of big pants !

A great teacher! Thanks

The Man. PG!!

In his wildest dreams Jimmy could never play it even close to that perfectly. BUT, he is Jimmy Page, so there's THAT...

You are the most incredible musician alive. You can play whatever comes to mind. I'd give anything to see the moment when you went from being able to comp any technical licks ( i.e. - VH) into your own realm; that would be a magical moment. I bet you spent the entire day/night vamping on ideas. And, "low guitar, high pants" FTW!!

PG is just as enthusiastic as he was 20 years ago. He litterally lives and breath this instrument.

My first instructional VHS tape was Paul, I almost gave up playing the guitar on the spot. What a great guitarist.

Best dude to learn from

I've been following Paul (Pablo) since the early '90s when Intense Rock came out. He is just a wonderful balance of talent and good humor. He's the kind of person ya just look forward to growing up with and his respect and absolute wonderful covers of other great guitarists just brings me back here. I always go back and listen to the stuff on IR II and one of my favorite lines from a lesson there is "Of course, I have to come up with an ending that doesn't suck!" Haahahhha!

Loved the explanation of putting physicality into it. Great tip! Thanks Paul, you're too cool. Now where's me some of them highpants!?

Paul is the coolest guy on the planet

Love ya,. Paul! Thanks for a great lesson, and a laugh. "The knee bone's connected to the jaw bone."

He's at the age almost like our parents, but his wrist, fingers, and picking never get old. It's insane!!

Dude is hilarious. Great teacher.

Awesome stuff!! Rock & roll forever!!✌️

More Paul lessons! Daily please.....

lovely guitar Paul

I have seen a few Paul Gilbert videos.... I had no idea he was this funny. 🤘🏻
