To see the great Phil X wearing a hot pink jumpsuit in his first band (new wave pop band 'Frozen Ghost') search "Frozen Ghost pauper in paradise". He makes his first appearance between 1:21-1:27. Classic!! lol!
@siriusisastar Frozen Ghost wasn't Phil's first band. His first band was Sidinex (his last name spelled backwards) Saw them at least 10 times back in the day. Awesome live band (as you'd expect). I've even got 2 copies of their debut/only album. One still sealed. :) Also saw Flip City a couple times (I believe one of their last ever shows too).
LAte summer '53 first run Duo Jet would have a script logo. Many had replacement necks, probably what happened to this one. First 150 guitars had old Gretsch script logo.
if you love the sound of the treble pickup in a Vox Ac-30 then you should listen to the beatles from 1961-1963 with the early tapes in hamburg, the Decca audition, and Please Please Me album
@tatesmith765 Then you should love to see him in a pink jumpsuit playing bad new wave pop in 1989 -- search "Frozen Ghost pauper in paradise". Enjoy!! :)
Phil X belting out wild thing is as close as it gets to the true spirit of rock'n'roll. How come, when it comes to singing/writing his own songs with the drills Phil X sounds like a green day (corporate punk/American Pie soundtrack) wannabee ? What a waste ! Put the X back in Phil man !!!!
I cant believe you guys have that natural strat in the background! thats an original '55 strat serial number 7070 that was designed as an early prototype of the fender jazzmaster, thats a really significant piece of fender history!
Any chance of possibly checking out a "Jag-Stang"!?? I know they aren't ('vintage') yet ..still would like to learn more about them. If you may have one. Tanks Felix!
phil, you rock man! Great channel! Any chance you can do some videos with the amp mic'd? It would be cool to check out the difference in sound, maybe even trying out some sweet vintage mics?
@frettedamericana ah I see mics now ha. For some reason it just sounds like an overhead mic or the camera mic, not a mic right on the front of the amp. Are you mixing the room in? I don't mean to be critical and am definitely no sounds guy, but I just don't hear much richness in the audio. Do you lose some quality in the upload? Maybe I just have crappy headphones :/
this dude cant say his life isnt accomplished, hot wife, a mini-dog, plays vintage guitars while being surrounded by even more vintage axes regularly for guitar-video hungry youtube users.
Whats that 2 pick-up Strat behind Phil in this video? Never seen one of those before. And a LP with a maple fretboard? Hey if he could demo those that would be cool.
@bluesguitardude at :30 there is a clear shot of it. It's a strat body, natural finish, two white single coils, looks like a black pickguard, maple neck (???) I don't think that's a 'stang
@frettedamericana I think it is worth noting that the George Harrison Signature Duo Jet, which hits stores (In a limited run of 60) in May, has an MSRP pf $20,000, which is $8,500 MORE than what you are selling this beauty for. MAN, if I had the cash this thing would be mine.
Could you please make a review of the Les Paul guitar in the right corner. Now you'll be like "Witch one, there's like only Les Paul guitars there". But i mean the one that looks like it's in natural wood. If you watch the screen at 0:39 it's the 3rd one from the right corner. I think it looks really cool and i would like to hear the sound.
Any possibility of hearing the "Phil-harmonic" neck chocking a Fender 'Jagstang'??? Please, as I'm interested in possibly purchasing one. Thanx guys!!!
It sounds soo good when Phil plays Rush!!
