[grainin93]

Whahaha, the secret is no longer a secret!!

[cmzangetsu1993]

Look at that awesome wall of Peavey Raptors behind him! :D

I've got one of those beasts, plays pretty damn well too. The pickups in it aren't all that splendiforous but that is what the aftermarket pickups are for.

Who kind of guitar is the one between the two les Paulson

[lameKidification]

[myway43]

I had a question. Phil has a LTD Viper 400, but I think those came w/ EMG's. Did he do a active to passive conversion? Great videos!

[Kylef7735]

@myway43 Its an older ESP custom viper 301

[TheMAJofficial]

[aixpert291]

[DarkTuga96]

Phil is on my top 10 guitarists, right after Jimmy Page

[CamoSpartan07]

Watching Rob Zombie and Alice Cooper play golf would be the only time I would actually watch golf xD. (Phil is awesome btw)

[grapedrankinc]

why do u put a fan in your guitar

[motorhead1995able]

well to tell u the truth, a producer came to me and told me to play to a band, i was scared and did not call him, he looked like a pimp. i live in greece. is it a good idea to call him?

[nopp1]

whats the song in the beginning?

[JohnFrusciantee]

the song is : the drills air hockey champion of the world

[natasharhodes]

@ 6:40 - LOL... I was there at the Cat Club the night Phil decided to throw his guitar 20 feet up in the air.. with 2 feet of headspace between his head and the ceiling. And yeah, it was a lot of blood, but like a trooper he carried on playing right to the end of the show. That's why Phil X rocks!! :)

[rubeninhofonsa]

[GuitarGuy5000000000]

When was this? Just this November?

[rockynashfilms]

@GuitarGuy5000000000 October 16, 2010

[GuitarGuy5000000000]

@rockynashfilms Thanks. I always miss stuff like this, then I end up seeing it on YouTube two months later..

[ilr111]

my dream is to play a one whole day in a studio with Phil x..

[RedroomStudios]

that was so entertaining... it's great to get Phil's insights and old stories!

thanks as always Rocky!

[rockynashfilms]

@RedroomStudios My pleasure as always too!

[cladouce]

Mr rockynash, what is your connection to the mighty mr phil x?

[rockynashfilms]

@cladouce Well, I've always been a big fan most importantly. But we became friends when we both played in bands in Ontario in the 80's, we know a lot of the same musicians in this area, I've hired him to play when I promoted concerts, he has cut solos on my studio songs and now I enjoy videoing his shows. So lots of different ways I guess.

[qbomcara]

@philx1111 just letting you know that you are a f*cking awesome person and guitarist. btw, you should make a video-lesson of those guitar throwing!!

[Jacklovesrock]

dude how old are you ?

[ThaUltimateDragon]

man this is awesome! thx again rockynash!

[philotze]

Great inspiration Mr Phil X. I was wondering what guitar do you play first? Acoustic or electric? If so, whats your first guitar? :)

[philx1111]

@philotze

i actually got an electric i couldn't even hold when i was 5 but the amp was too loud so i was told i had to play on an acoustic until i got better. i don't even remember the brands or models.

[qbomcara]

thumbs up if Phil X is your favorite guitarist!!

[BuryMeDown]

@qbomcara i agree man

[rockynashfilms]

Yes there will be some footage of the last Kitchener show soon. There were some slowdowns. Currently working on Clinic (part 3) and some of that Kitchener show. Thanks for watching and your patience. It will come!

[ArielsSmartyPants]

[ganjaking187]

Phil if you see this there is a company called GFS who makes those p90's you like in the humbuck size and they are super overwound and sound great.

[philx1111]

@ganjaking187

[Ramones1234100]

Very cool! I love these clinic videos! I really liked the closeups of the ESP... that was cool to see. Hopefully we'll have those Kitchener vids soon, too!
