Thanks for posting this- i never knew GIlbert played a 7 string. What year was this recorded?

 

[Zehailiu]

I'm not sure on the dates, but I believe it was a bit before GOOMY came out, possibly 05?
Yeah, it looks like an early idea that eventually became GOOMY, it's pure awesomeness!

 

[The Dark Wolf]

Anything with Paul rules. Thanks!

Any one ever try that tuning? Was it D/D/D/D/G/b/e? with the lowest D as a drop-D D, just below standard low E.

 

[Zehailiu]

only 3 Ds.
I tried it, the song is wicket fun to play, you could tap the GOOMY intro all by yourself, no human capo needed!
But I only have 1 guitar and it renders it useless for all but 3 songs (From PG) so I changed back after the "honeymoon period" was over.

When I get a second axe I'd probably keep 1 in that tuning.

Thats a really cool tuning. Thanks for the post up man.

I believe the tuning is
7 - Low D
6 - Middle D
5 - High D (same as first string)
4 - C
3 - F
2 - A
1 - D

That was seriously badass, Paul Gilbert is simply amazing.

He needs to play a 7 more I think!. Paul is an amazing player!

 

[Izebecool]

Paul is the man.

Paul can hardly do any wrong.
Him playing a 7 in that video is further proof of his awesomeness

Can't go wrong with Mr.Big stuff, solid writing, solid singer, rock solid playing from both Paul and Billy, must see electric drill solo!!!
