If you're looking for a ton of Paul Gilbert videos and information, visit this kickass blog:

By the way, I urge anyone reading this to watch this video of a guitarist called Don Maloney:

This is one of the best videos on youtube and no, it doesn't feature Paul Gilbert. To make up for that though, this guy is using an eight string Conklin.
