  • Guys please help me,What's the name of the music which plays at 09.42.I love it!!!

  • @XecronDeathstorm powder- up here

  • that's the reason why People say SG's are Les Paul's "brothers"

    By the way man you are an awesome musician

  • RIP headphone users....

  • Phil X should drop by the shop and install Flip Sticks in all of these guitars

  • You are the coolest MF on the tube bet your a great person to be with so funny speedy ;o))))

  • Like I get so sick of everyone playing Guns N Roses material on a Les Paul.. Come on man! :D Play some Van Halen, or Satriant on a Paul, let's see how that sounds through a Marshall tone :D

  • great voice !

  • u tuned in E flat?

  • Les Paul had nothing to do with the SG because he didn't like it. He didn't like the style and body, but before there were SGs, there were Les Pauls. SGs come from the Les Paul family. Les Paul took his name off of it finally in 1962.

  • I love how I saw the name of the video, went in Wikipedia, read about Les Paul being angry about stuff happening without their permission, what SG stands for. then started watching the video and Phil said the exact same thing in the same order. :D

    Conclusion: Phis has read Wikipedia before the review. :D

  • 4:26 shit dude thats some intense tone there

  • god this is les paul

  • fuckin awesome dude

  • lol american are all idiot like that? american guy= fag.

  • @TheCristoCanaro fail, he is canadian!

  • This guy is a legend!

  • One of my county's most important guitarists used the same instrument. He was the first and the greatest who played Cream Jimi Hendrix and Led Zeppelin in Hungary. Unfortunately he only wrote a few songs he thought he's not as good as his favorite bands so he kept playing their songs till his dead in 1982 when he was 36 years old...

  • i just found my job :)

  • I hate this guitar

    Well I hate it as an lp because it's nothing like any other lp and I just don't like that

    But as an sg I'm just fine with it

    Ha

  • @TheKoty333 It's just a name. It's still an SG....

  • Nice nailpolish.

  • hey, guys, next vid could you show how to play the chorus in Air Hockey Champion? for the life of me i can't figure it out and online tabs are crap.

  • How come some SG's fade when they age into a really bright red and others turn dark almost brown?

  • My friend Kyle hates SGs, lets all go torch him

  • @Kreason95 -how can anyone HATE the gibson sg?? it's a very lovable guitar.

  • les paul was like'' dude that guitar i dont like that guitar take my name off it right now'' hahaha

  • You are an amusing fellow. Then again, being around all those guitars all day would make me giddy as hell too! But I can't play as well as you do :(

  • Phil, what is the song at the beginning of the video?? I like it!!

  • i wont do tht all night long dont worry about it

  • Four fingers and a thumb to play the same note. Genius.

    These videos are the best guitar thing on YouTube.

  • I love this guy!

  • my boyfriend has a gibson sg, he plays alot of incubus espically with the phase shifter,,,this guitar sounds so good!

  • they should change the chanelname to youcantaffordtheseguitarsifyou­rwatchingthis,

    very cool guitar though

  • @RnRinc1

    haha true!

  • they should change the chanelname to youcantaffordtheseguitarsifyou­rwatchingthis,

    very cool guitar though

  • they should change the chanelname to youcantaffordtheseguitarsifyou­rwatchingthis

  • '62 SG, '60 Les Paul, '60 Rosewood Strats.....always interesting to see these guitars they made the year after a classic batch. You'd think that with the lessons learned from these model runs that failed or succeeded tonally, that makers would have perfected the modern runs. Most of the classics still sound better.....strange. Friggin' poly finishes.....we want nitro back, standard....

  • @SixStringHarmonies it's all about the wood . The particular batch of hardwood used by the manufacturer in a given yr . The grain of the wood and a number of factors make it impossible to duplicate it exactly

  • GOING INTO THE TONEMASTER BABAAYYYY YEAH ! :D

  • how do they put the guitars to float the guitar case right in the beginning of the video im so confused :S

  • as of right now, i'm currently commenting on the nail polish

  • that run around 9:20 is godlike

  • Incredible voice

  • Saw Zakk Wylde and Slash live and not together mid 2009. Zakk played all through the Show his Epiphone sigs LP. and a Epiphone 1959 Gold top LP. Slash played his Epiphone sigs and a white Epiphone custom LP.

  • @keineahnung1001

    AMP!

    

  • what is more importent ?

    to have a mor expensive guitar or a more expensive amp? i have 500 euros so what do you think?

  • @keineahnung1001 definitely a guitar

  • @keineahnung1001 Guitar for me is the most important. Guitar will affect how you play more. Amp will affect tone more.

  • @keineahnung1001

    Amp and pickups is like 90% of it.

  • @keineahnung1001 it depends on if you need tweakability of tone or if you need a guitar that can handle radical playing. if you play a lot, all the time, get a guitar with a neck shape you like and a tone you want. if you play someone elses songs or want to achieve a particular sound, get a combo amp with built in effects.

  • dude, whats the song in the beginning?..it rocks!!!!!

  • man did that guy just put a piece of gum on the Vox AC30?!

    Don't worry man, ill take it off later(:

  • What's the name of the song at the beginning of the video ? Can somebody please tell me.

  • Somewhere out there is a Lawyer with a goatee and a pony tail, pulling his head out of his ass going "is he talking about me"?

  • Amen to not having to play what other people play on a type of guitar! I have a gretsch hollowbody and when I feel like it, I crank up the gain and treble and play ac/dc!

  • @souljer0 malcom young for the awesome win!!

  • @souljer0 of course you can play AC/DC on a gretsch. malcolm uses them all the time! :P

  • @souljer0 malcum young plays a gretsch

  • @souljer0 malcum yound plays a gretsch

  • @souljer0 malcolm young often used to plays gretsch hollowbodies, check out the highway to hell vid :P

  • @souljer0 thats a pretty bad example if you really think about it

  • @souljer0 nalcom young from acdc plays a gretsch

  • @souljer0 yeah im sure the very LAST thing that crosses a gretsch owner's mind is ACDC you are an original cat my friend. 

  • @souljer0 2 words... Malcolm Young... just check his guitar

  • @souljer0 Just a heads up, Malcolm Young (ACDC's 2nd guitarist) almost exclusively plays a Gretsch to get the band's signature tone (along with Angus' SG) (Not trying to troll or anything, not long ago realised they even had 2 guitarists ;) )

  • where can i find your music ?

  • This guy is insane in both ways

  • I read on a gibson forum that SG actually stands for "second generation", not "solid guitar", to distinguish it from the original style Les Paul. Has anyone else ever read or heard that?
