@@chongli8409 Holy shit! I honestly wasn't familiar with Anton Oparin...........until 2 minutes ago. Thanks for the recommendation. He is unbelievably talented.
I have watched so many guitarist who plays like paul gilbert but this is the only guy who can really play like paul gilbert! solid picking! perfect tone! good job bro!
Like many folks who’ve said it here, if you didn’t mention it, we would’ve thot YOU WERE ACTUALLY PG HIMSELF! You’ve clearly been his silent disciple and WE LOVE IT!!!
@scootyman10 Hey there, I don't really remember I'm afraid....:-( But I remember that in 1992 I already played Mr Big stuff live. I guess, taste, accuracy etc. improved more and more over the years. For me the speed is the " easier" part in the bigger picture, but to be able to do this kind of stuff standing up, playing live, anywhere and anytime , takes some time I guess... I hope this kind of answers your question though! Thanks for watching and Good luck! Best, Remy
Dang!... that was very good, you have really captured the way Paul groups phrases and your left hand looks identical to how Paul holds his pick keeping his hand floating but digging in nicely and quite aggressively too. Very well done mate :))
This makes me feel like complete shit about myself. Oh well. MUCH respect. I'm on my way to playing like that, but it's gonna be a while. A long while. Good shit
@WalkinDude91 Thanks man! The Action on all my guitars is pretty low! But I can still bend without 'dead" notes. I use ;10-46 gauge strings though. Thanks for your kind words!
Thank you so much! However this was years ago and I doubt I can still do it with that speed and precision hahahaha! All the best and happy new year, Remy
Incredible! May I ask you what kind of strings (brand, type) are you using? And how did you gain that kind of speed and accuracy? Years of playing or any types of practice lick? And to add, I wouldn't know if it was Paul Gilbert or someone else, if you didn't put in that "bedroom shredding" thing. Seriously, awesome!
ik ben deze video opnieuw gaan opzoeken hier om gewoon te zeggen hoe awesome dit is. Ik ben zo fier dat deze man mijn teacher is, great ! remy you rule dude !
Remy is a good as it gets as far as playing Gilbert style. Food for thought, Remys hands are half the size as Pauls & he still is pulling it off. Fantastic job bud.
Hi there, That’s basically what I did in this video yes! Lot’s of speedy running while connecting the 7 box shapes …. And listening to my ( at that time ) favorite player to kind of make it work! Hope that helps ! Best, Remy
Thanks ! It's an Engl Powerball! the EQ is pretty straight forward! with enough mid tones! And the gain used was the low gain channel , gain at 12 o'clock
Bravo! I thought it was actually Paul. Then I saw the radiator in the background and knew it wasn’t him. 😊 Jokes aside, great playing mate. Would be great to see you do a video explaining the picking technique (and how to make that sit with a metronome beat) for the double down version of the PG lick. As in when he does “1234 34321” version of the “123432-123433…”. You do that once at the beginning of the video. It’s very rare that you see someone other than PG do that
Hey there, thanks for watching! Well let me see… I started doing / practicing that since 1989 up until the moment I posted that video…. Took a lot of practice, and also live playing to get it steady and Secure! I hope this helps! Goodluck and all the best, Remy
@@remyhansen thanks for the info! Do you have any tips on how best to practice that? I'm familiar enough with Paul's playing going way back to the old Intense Guitar VHS video but I never managed to get my picking down that tightly. I ended up giving up, relying more on legato but I much prefer the sound of the pick attack...I'm probably lazy but maybe I just dont have the muscle biology for it. When you were working on it, roughly how much time would you spend on a single exercise?(minutes/hours?)
i must ask about the string action past the 12th fret, they look pretty low, just as low as the action from frets 1-12? I can't seem to get my higher frets to have super low action like my low frets...any help?
