Hey Phil! Next time you play a strat with a trem how about doing a few bars of Led Zep's In The Evening? Jimmy smokes that whammy like I know you like to do. So, uh...yeah! love you man!
Just imagine how that guitar would sound had the owner actually played it for the last 47 years! I've played a '63 strat that has been played so much that it looked like it had been pulled from a fire, and it sounded 10 times better than that one. And at only $15,000, it was a steal!! :)
God Id love to hear mr.X do dont stop me now or somethin' rocked by Queen 'cause hes such an honest rockin soul. Freddie would have Digged this man as an artist, he was a hendrix fan u know.
Phil X, you ROCK!! I love your videos, and yes, I laugh just as hard as you when I'm watching them, and seriously enjoy your awesome guitar insanity! You inspire me to want to get back into playing guitar in a big way!... You should make an instructional DVD to teach us mortal beings the ways of your awesomeness!!
What are the chances of using a new vocal mic to avoid the clipping all over the place? I love listening to Phil play and sing, but it ruins the experience for me to hear it clip like this.
you know whats really sad, this is probably the last time that guitar will be played that way. more than likely it will be hung on a wall or left in the case....
@TPGxSuperMan Cold Sweat by James Brown, Phil plays the horn parts as well as the guitar parts. I'm waiting for him to figure out how to play the drum parts on the guitar as well... :D
Wanted to say something really nice about Phil X and Fretted Americana but I can't think of anything good enough, so I'll leave it at a: You guys are sweet.
what would be a really good song for me to learn? I am not super good but i am intermediate. something that would be good and help me progress. any comments would be appreciated. thanks.
@officerdonut1 Play some Jimi Hendrix stuff like Purple haze or foxey lady they are not that hard to play. Or try Texas flood (Stevie Ray vaughan).
Try to learn them by ear not with tabs or anything like that and keep in mind that blues is about feel. Also try to improvise to backingtracks and don't just play your scales. Try to feel the beat and the melodie. Think about a melodie that would fit and try to play it. Try to sing the melodie you play!
i thought someone at my work had on a drills shirt. i said "hey cool, phil x, man!" before noticing his shirt just had a picture of a drill on it. LAME.
I could never afford some of the gear he's demoing but he does some of the best demos you can find here. So very entertaining. I would like to get that new evil robot that just cam out, mixed with my dual rec would sound epic.
are you going to demo the new (black) Evil Robot? I want to hear it, its got to be half the price of the original Evil Robot for a reason and if its decent sounding I'm buying it
@rodpico His band is The Drills. But I guarantee you've heard his playing before without even knowing it. Go to his website, PhilX (dot) Tv. I think he's got every artist he's recorded with listed there
What has the guitar chops of EVH & Hendrix combined, the energy of a basketful of puppies born inside a nuclear reactor, the cool of Chuck Norris *before* he became trendy, and the musical style of everything that was right in the LA rock scene before it all went wrong?? It's PHIL X!!!
I've said this before, but it really is a shame (and quite ironic) that as much time as you spend around vintage guitars and playing music from around the time period they came from, you hardly know any of the music you play outside of simply knowing how to play them. Of course, you did acknowledge that fact,
I'm not complaining, i'm just disappointed. As always, it's a pleasure to watch you play. \m/
Phil, why don't you use the Tonemaster anymore? Do you like the Evil Robot more? Or is it because the Tonemaster is a old amp and you don't want to go everywhere with it?
Phil X, the very name strikes fear and envy in many player's hearts, but many also dream of a peaceful coexistence between guitar and mutant. Phil X has such a dream, and we, his X-Men are the team of you-tube mutants willing to take stand for him: The PHIL-X-MEN !
Forgive me if you've already done it but I'd ilke to see the non-reverse firebird with the p90's. If you got one (or anything) with 3 p90s I'd love to hear/see that.
Stevie Ray Vaughan is the name you seek! xD
