  • awesome man haha the maple neck kinda made it sound straty in the clean tone!

  • Sound travels at different speeds depending on the medium it travels through. Different woods have a different density and a different resonant frequency. To say wood has no effect or does not matter is a ludicrous argument. Now what sounds best is subjective. An acoustically resonant object will have its own resonance frequency and also will possess harmonics at which it will more readily vibrate thus amplifying these. So there are differences in tone. Different Strings & pups also change tone.

  • Phil XXX the ultimate shallow egotist

  • Phil, when you said "Yeah" while you changed to the the AC30 you're voice sounded like jerry reed so do some amos moses pls!

  • demo the guitar in the backround at 3:06

  • 8:25 do I hear a little bit of You're Not Happy 'Til I'm Not Happy?

    what a song!

  • stop talking adout the pedal. THAT GUITAR IS AWESOME !!!!!!!

  • wow, the maple neck makes the neck pup sound awesome.

  • Does the Bad Monkey work well with solid state amps?

  • Awesome tone. Les Paul with a spank! Didn't see this on the site thou.

  • You guys stock PRS?

  • i can hear the possibilty of some "modern era" ZZ tones on that bad boy.

  • Tone on that guitar is sweet... Reverb really helps show the pickups true characteristics when played cleanly

  • hey phil ! we get it ...you play classic rock....but a review without the settings of the amp on high gain is not a decent review at all .that gibson kicks ass though

  • dude you is ace ......

  • I'm buying this reverb pedal.

    Holy shit it's awesome!

  • you're one of a kind

  • Please SHUT UP, Phil!

  • You guys are So Immature. Learn the truth about things. Look, take the pickps out, plug the guitar in, see if you van hear the wood. Okay? Yiu wnt, because it has no effect when plugged in.

  • @stonedrocker666 were done, someone else take this on

  • @stonedrocker666 actually it does. you really must be stoned if you think the wood has nothing to do with the tone. different wood, different tone...simple as that. btw, you can hear the difference in wood tones with the pickups turned down just as easily as you can when they're turned up full blast.

  • it sounds like you are playing in gigantic hollow stadium at 3 o'clock :D

  • Yes i am saying wood has no effect? Got a problem?

  • @stonedrocker666 Yeah. You have to be the dumbest person alive who is not legally retarded.

  • @stonedrocker666 of course wood makes a difference!!! mahogany, basswood, ash, alder, maple and rosewood have very distinct tones!! if you played a tele with a maple neck and rosewood fretboard, and then changed the neck for an all-maple one it would have a brighter sound.

  • @stonedrocker666 You have no idea what you are talking about. Lay off the drugs & stop trolling.

  • when i grow up i wanna be like Phil X

  • o cara é demaiss

    

  • The wood sounds very good and resonant. Bull. Wood does not matter. Its common sense people.

  • @stonedrocker666 So you are saying that the wood has no effect on the sound?

  • @stonedrocker666 umm what? wood has a very big big effect on the sound. what in the hell nonsense are you talking about?

  • @stonedrocker666 Common sense like the sky being brown and grass being blaze fucking orange. You should take your idiocy over to the Harmony Central forums where you belong, with all the other monkeys that think they're scientists.

  • @stonedrocker666

    Fuckin hell I think you've stumbled onto something fuckin big here. I guess all the fuckin marketing dollars and research that has gone into them was a waste of time. I guess thousands of buyers worldwide are all wrong as well. I bet Fender and Gibson are shitting themselves with your revelations my friend. Gibson have already risked prison in their wood sourcing, you've made it so much easier for them with your research findings. Fucking amazing stuff.

  • 10;30 Sexy Time X3

  • That reverb pedal is like a night out drinkin', the later into the night it gets "9:00, midnight, 3:00" The more drunk you get, and the more distorted and strange everything sounds around you.

  • 6:15 phil kinda looks like a lion

  • 6:00 xDDD

  • What guitar is next to the vox ac30 ? Could you please demo it

  • Wat kinda guitar strap is that? Because I need a strap that fits my height

  • @mopussy123 Why dont you just try out guitar straps?

  • @baconbut95 well ive tried several straps but i want a leather strap that fits my height because i bought one and it fits me but i cant put it as low as phil has it on this vid

  • 8:24 insane lick

  • is it sold yet?

  • what is reverb mean?

  • if this guitar was a sandwich it would be a good sandwich

  • No one could resist Phil X at 9 o'clock. If there were panties with in 100 yards they would be liquidize.

  • 2:50 sexi face :D

  • Oh my god, first Fa video i'be watched in months. Good ood phil X playing, not just the two albums of The Drilks i own.. Love it!

  • does it just look that way because of the maple or does that les have a wider neck than other les paul customs?

  • Sexy Time :D

  • Comment removed

  • I dont know why everyone hates the “Norlin Era”. They are still high quality guitars. They have more sustain and heavier bodies, thats pretty much it.

  • what is he playing at 1:33-1:40?

  • Do you guys have any heavily worn black or cream les Paul customs

  • @frettedamericana could you sell me a gibson sg

  • Pause at around 0:36, Look at the First guitar on the left, and look at all those CONTROLS!!!! :P

  • -you guys ever see any old asphen les pauls??

  • what was he playing a 2:49??

  • can you do a fernandes strat 1983 maple neck and daphne blue finish

  • did u sell this already?

  • another reason to be a proud Canadian!

  • what is that priest song?

  • @TeamXTREMEPANTERA

    which one?, the first is "Whiskey Woman" and then he covers Priest covering Fleetwood Macs "Green Manalishi"

  • @blackzeb Whiskey Woman? "Victim of Changes"

  • @GUlTARlST

    I guess it depends on how you view the history of PRIEST...Al Atkins wrote this song WHISKEY WOMAN before leaving Priest, which became a PRIEST Classic. The guy who replaced Al, Rob Halford wrote a song called RED LIGHT LADY, and the band put the two songs together and titled it VICTIM OF CHANGES.

  • @blackzeb Wow I didnt know! I knew there was a vocalist before rob, but not that part. Thanks for the info!

  • Is it sold?

  • Comment removed

  • does anybody know the riff that he starts to play at 3:30 its so awesome and I would really like a link to the song if anyone knows it. Thanks :)

  • the binding and neck match each other, i love that pedal!!!

  • That neck is BUTT ugly!!!

  • Play the Alembic for us Deadheads! your the man PHIL X

    

  • you should use the vox ac30 more, the tones on that amp are amazing, your sorta underestimate it :/

  • fuck rebecca black

  • didnt know i could cum so much in 11 mins....

  • ha ha that reverb pedal at 3 o'clock gives me a dick dale vibe

  • Please new video!!

  • i LOVE the way that amp just compresses itself it sounds so sick!! I WANT ONE!!!

  • I want either a vox ac30, ac15, or evil robot.

    I dont know which to get, im mostly trying to figure out if i want the ac30 of evil robot. I have a 1966 fender mustang and 1962 Strat. i like to play music by red hot chilli peppers, arctic monkeys, the strokes... pretty much any rock music from the 90's to now. i can afford to buy both, but idk which to get? any advice?

  • @sekacbarc You def want an EVIL*ROBOT!!!! :)

  • @frettedamericana he doesn't want an evil robot, he wants to buy ME an evil robot :)

  • @guitargod1598 how bout you give me 2 evil robots, and ill give one to you and keep the other for my self?

  • @sekacbarc cuz if ur smart u'll run off and keep em' both.lol.

    actually i cant afford one, so im lookin for a part-time so i buy it.lol

  • @guitargod1598 you dont need 2. there is enough rock in one to melt a whole stadium.

  • @sekacbarc thats an excellent point my friend...bottom line im gonna buy it as soon as i can.lol

  • @frettedamericana haha i already bought the AC30... maybe next time

  • @sekacbarc Yeah, life's so hard for you... Rich bastard.

  • @laza023zr dude im 15 and helped my dad remodel houses and save up the money over the course of the last year. stfu

  • @frettedamericana haha id rather get an answer from somebody who isnt trying to sell me one

  • @frettedamericana I heard the Evil Robot will only be produced in short runs. If I order one and you're out am I out of luck?

  • @bigfish0886 I think the short run is just the first 100 with Phil's signature. After that I think they're doing a normal run of them

  • @frettedamericana i would get an evil robot, if it didnt cost so much haha, im 15 and dont have that big of a budget. i already got an ac15

  • @sekacbarc depends what type of sound you want, you should research the amps a little more

  • @animepwn3r yeah i did a lot and played the AC15 and AC30 a lot in guitar center. i already bought an ac30, seeing as how it has such great clean sounds.

  • @sekacbarc I love the monkeys and the strokes <3333

  • @sekacbarc You mean there's doubt that you want, no, that you NEED an Evil Robot?

  • @sekacbarc AC30 is great for clean. I mean, Jimmy Page used AC30’s on stage with Marshall 100 watt heads. The Evil Robot has (I know this is the wrong word) a “Cheaper” sound, great for 90’s music.

  • @sekacbarc you have good taste in music ;p

  • @RelaxNplay64 thank you haha

  • 3:34 sounds like juicebox by the strokes.

  • why this guitar seems like always getting out of tune???

    

  • hairdresser!

  • Guess what? I use audacity to record you audio and now I have a fucking awesome play list.

  • Hi, what is the name of the van morrison song ?

  • @ferbicus check out our website for details!

  • Dear Phil X and Fretted Americana,

    I love your videos! Please Do a video of that red mustang!

  • hmmm??..Besides this guitar looking different, feeling different, and sounding absouloutly nothing like a regular les paul.....I think its just like a regular les paul custom.

  • Ahhh... I thought I smelled a Green Manalishi

  • Phil! It would be awesome if you could  play some of The band? :3

  • THAT WOULD BE FUNNY AND COOL :)

    THE BRAND NEW PHIL X GUITAR BUILDING WOODSHOP 101

  • PHIL X ?? I HAVE A GOOD SERIOUS QUESTION

    YOU REALLY AT PLAYING THE GUITAR AS MOST SERIOUS MUSICIANS ARE

    BUT ?? BUT , CAN YOU BUILD A REAL ELECTRIC GUITAR??

    I WANNA SEE A NEW SEGMENT ON YOUR YOUTUBE VIDEOS AS A GOOD SUGGESTION

    WHERE IN REAL TIME, WE CAN SEE YOU WALKING TO A LOCAL HOME DEPOT, ORDERING A PIECE OF WOOD, THEN GOING TO THE WOODSHOP AND CUTTING OUT A NICE COOL SHAPE :) THEN YOU ADD IN THE STRINGS, THE NECK, THE PICK-UPS, DO A NICE PAINTJOB ON YOUR NEW CUSTOM GUITAR & PLAY IT?

  • wouldnt it be nice for Phil X to do some ZZ Top

  • Worst sounding reverb effect, EVER.

    Sweet git tho :D

  • Dammn, that's a beautiful guitar, not even mentioning the tone.
