[timrocket2]

[collareddove7]

Listen to that tone OOOOO:

[bobbob53629]

why does he have a powder shirt???

[vibratingstring]

@bobbob53629

Because that is (was) one of his and his wife Ninette's bands!

[Budyguy222222]

Ballsy move playing the Stevie Wonder song; never easy. Phil still does it well.

And what an f-ing guitar with the PAFs. Lordy.

[oOFirefaceOo]

This guitar sounds incredibly amazing!

[austin7956]

he's capable of sitting?

[dialaname]

20 k for pickup rings is ridiculous, the vintage craze is just so gotdamn stupid -_-

[Juicefani11]

Humbuckers??? I thought all ES-295's had P90s.

[hazmatsquid420]

TO all the haters Phil put the Jizz on that thing and moves it around! He'll kick anyones ass with his rock! He doesn't do what he does just for recognition he does it cuz its his passion and he truely appreciates all music.

[thestilettos777]

K....ain't sayin' he doesn't know songs or the guitar....BUT...could you please ask him to cut back on the caffeine before he does anymore video's??? Seems like a funny guy...but I just might need a couple shots of espresso to keep up with him.........oh...wait, if any of us had a chance to play any of these guitars......we'd probably be jumpin' out-a our skins too....!!!

Cool stuff...keep it up...

[LurkenBoogieBand]

Phil X is cool!

And now all cool riffs and lyrics!

[zefer07]

How long has Phil played guitar for?

[mikexlong]

lol, anyone else think he was gonna play "white room" when he started playing the chords for "roxanne".

[DrummerDlux]

Dude, I would pay an endless amount of money to get lessons from you.

[MattyTbh]

Can someone tell me all of the songs in this video? They are all amazing, like to learn them...

[Zepp3849]

@MattyTbh If you gotta be told, you don't need to learn them.

[Juicefani11]

Epiphone made these models a few years ago... That was like if Squier would start making Esquires... xD I prefer the epiphone version of this.

[georgelosgrafiti]

i love this man it is awesome

[mikenba3highfly]

phil u r the best

[MinistryofPunx]

I swear Phil could play the "brown note" and make me shit myself, and I would still be rockin out with my poopy pants

[numerus]

Great demo. One of the sickest guitars ever.

[maintheradio]

i would do ANYTHING for one of these.

literally anything.

anything.

anything.

[ponlm]

@maintheradio anything?

[NickMass35]

Phil is awesome.

[superaltman]

Do you still have this?

If so. What are the chances of you donating it to a good cause. Good cause being me.

[PennybagDarrell]

his face before he stared playing whole lotta love. XD priceless.

[tbundicknc]

I got no problem with the player. Man's doing what he loves and sounds good doing it.

[elskeeper]

Very cool, I didn't know they ever made a PAF equipped 295, awesome!! As for the derogatory comments directed at Phil, STFU. Seems to me he's doing a fine job of showing these guitars off.

[TENGKUOAIDIL]

[darkhorse427]

[Glockenator]

@OlegVoronin Why? You jealous of his skills?

[drummerboyx8x]

[blakmagik4]

@OlegVoronin I don't think you get it. most of the 30k views are because of player.

[joeleke64]

@OlegVoronin

Beautiful guitar — unbelievable sound.

God damn I love these videos.

[giantrobot9000]

What a guitar!

I am in love with vintage Gibson archtops. Just bought a '66 ES-125TDC w/ p90s......my first one.:)

[Fender9808]

what a loser take that guitar away from him!!

[EPICFAILSAM]

5:24 hahaheeee where's my blunt???

[SotR59]

man, the difference bettween the neck and bridge pup is really dramatic. Cool

[bloodyfrets]

2:55 feeeeeeeedbaaaaaaaaaack. Killer guitar though

[tkatvgps]

For how much did this guitar sell? I have the exact same guitar and I'm just wondering what it's worth now.

[superaltman]

@tkatvgps $12.50, i'll give you $15 if you pay the shipping.

[d4e2007it]

Thx God!!! Finally someone that reviews a guitar letting you hear THE SOUND without picking-madness or non sense amps.

Great one man!

[TheSchoolsux345]

hahahaha he always seems so happy to say his name. hes awesome.

[FrancoDamn]

Gibson ES 295 = Geordie Walker (Killing Joke)

[OfficiaIpodUser]

i like your style... you are the first guitarist i've ever seen who can shake his leg while playing

[poilkjlive]

awesome guitar, great roxanne cover, what kind of compressor do you use and can you tell me what strings is this guitar fitted with. Thanks!

[theozzman67]

Phil has the PERFECT job.

[andrewcy17]

whats the difference between PAFs and humbuckers?

[Blackoutwalkin]

@andrewcy17 P.A.F. are the O.G. of humbuckers. They're where it all started with that particular pickup model (well in terms of widespread recognition). INCREDIBLY rare pickups, but they are the holy grail of tone for guitarists. Humbuckers that are produced today are based off of the P.A.F. however, with the original model, winding techniques used back in the late 50's that made no two humbuckers alike.

[paulcrisan9210]

this guitar sounds amazing:O:O

[oppedx]

what song does he play at 2:19 - 2:42 ?

[Sublime4TizzLe]

@oppedx "roxanne" - by "The Police" released in 1978

[djbones666]

LOL Twilight Zone. xD

[TomWhite4444]

vintage is the best

[thou]

stop shaking your leg phil!! LOL

[PlayaDontHate24]

the best guitar in the shop!!!!!!!!!

[WouterJ]

What I like about Phil is that he's not afraid to really play those vintage guitars, he's not overly careful, treating them like artifacts. More power to him for really giving those guitars a working, they are MEANT to be played.

[Glockenator]

You should have played Stairway to Heaven

[saraband0]

Killing Joke.

[jKazej]

Whole Lotta Love sounded huge on that guitar.

[gretscher]

Wonder if Andy Summers ran across this here on YouTube and nearly passed out.

[glennjoos]

what are the ringmounts that he was talking about?

[XxHeAdShAwTxX]

@glennjoos the plastic things around the pickups ?

[Glockenator]

The ring mounts are the plastic mounts around the pickups

[WhitetailWillie]

most beautiful guitar i've heard on americana guitar reviews. i love this guy

[The6Eyeball9Kid]

he gets high on a good guitar ;o)

[eudes45]

god awesome sounds

[SlopBucket3]

hes such a good singer :O

[ChillpointNews]

Those pickups sounds awesome!

[albrakmo]

Brad Withford from Aerosmith has this guitar man only with P 90

[TheVillainOfTheYear]

That would be ES-225. I played a 57 225 the other day and had heart palpitations from the sexiness.

[pissballs]

2:56 sounds exactly like the Led Zeppelin recording!

[gregraven]

So, when does the album from The Drills hit the iTunes Music Store?

[gregraven]

This is all well and good, but what people REALLY want to know is when the new album by The Drills is going to be available for purchase from the iTunes Music Store.

[Ralle9007]

ES 295 with PAFs????

Get one with P 90 and try again. You`ll fly, man!

[bigredchevytruck]

Phil, you rock! One of these times when you get a 50s guitar, I'd love to hear you do some vintage Elvis. I thought you were going to whe I saw the video of the guitar that was owned by one of Elvis' bandmates. I love whatever you do but if you did Suspicous Minds or something like that, I'd be blown away!

[Silvoleon]

that is one awesome guitar man...

[skatekid032]

dude whats that riff at the start of the video thats a crazy sick sound

[humanpeanut]

this may sound dumb, but what's a ringmount?

[guitarmaniac43]

the ring around the pickup that holds it o the body

[jks2]

those rings are worth 20.000? i don't believe that XD

[braberdebrabel22]

@jks2 Well its trew, a 59 will set u back 400.000 $ so the ringmounts will be about 20.00 $

[leapphrog44]

shameless promotion of powder

[frettedamericana]

Dude! he doesn't work for FREE!

[Keijz74]

I'd say Nice Shirt! :o)#

[Zevonfan524]

@frettedamericana I'd do that for free just to be able to touch those guitars

[gibsonsc91]

@leapphrog44 if I'm correct, his only forms of payment for doing these videos is borrowing those guitars for studio work once in awhile, and the occasional plug for his bands.

[frettedamericana]

@gibsonsc91 well that's not exactly the arrangement he does get to borrow whatever he wants, I do plug his bands on every video, but there might be a little something under the tree for him after sessions too!!

[PennybagDarrell]

@frettedamericana can i work for you too?

[CCRockit]

@leapphrog44

You know what? Powder and The Drills dont get that much attention as it is, and for how talented Phil is that amazes me how stupid society is that they ignore people like this, i'd say "Shameless Promotion" is'nt inappropriate considering these ARE Dusty and Phil's videos

[leapphrog44]

@CCRockit sarcasm, man

[a90zx]

awesome guitar

[dietmarsimon]

Hi Phil, please tell me honestly if there's anything left, that You do not play better and hotter than the original is

[GooglelyTube]

Phil dude! I've never quite seen you leg twitching with vintage geetar euforicgasmic delight!

[mrnugget]

Damn! When you play the Whole Lotta Love Riff, the sound is fat as a mofo! Great!

[doughman43]

Dude this guy is freaking amusing!

[THEWORSTSKATEREVER]
