  • Paul gets better in every single video.

  • If Paul cant play metal i am a TROLL.

  • FUCK! this guy again

  • i just liked when he was demo-ing the harmonics. best part to be honest.

  • that guy looked a bit like gay to me...but when he started riffing i changed my mind

  • TOO MUCH BASS!!!

  • He´s way much better than most of deathcore guitarists, so STFU.

  • I was thinking about getting one of these. I like playing hard rock and metal. Should I get one?

  • @Thegameplaya101 I love Phil Demmel so much I'de get it if I was in a country band :P

  • didn't really like the sound of those bends in the solo thing..

  • most metal guitarists play metal only and even that they can't do right. playing guitar is whole different thing! beside that pauls riffs are awesome

  • Paul is an extremely versatile guitarist, and he is realy good! he also got a good sound with almost any euipment he uses! he is awesome! :D

  • Why does everyone h8 paul? He rocks.

  • 4:32, i need a change of boxers.

  • Being used to his reviews, I can tell he doesn't play a lot of metal. He did a very good job on this review !

  • thumbs up for no real reason

  • Skip to 3:31 If you havn't heard paul play with the fury of the metal gods before! Haha

  • Paul is actually quite the lead player

  • The pdx is really good I've played it several times.... I own the neck thru version... The neck thru version is definatly better.... But the pdx is one he'll of an axe for the money! After playing the pdx it made me want the neck thru version. I ordered the red one looks like a fararri! It plays great and has insane crushing tone! I'm not even a machine head fan I just love jacksons been playin them for 15 years. Out of all the guitars ive played over the years only ESP comes close and it still

  • anyone know if the usa model is much better than the india model?

  • @XxJacksonRhoadsxX the usa models are always better than imports, you should know this.

  • @acidtwinblaze but like is it worth the xtra 600 bucks

  • @XxJacksonRhoadsxX if you want the best tonal quality and for it to last longer than yes. Personally, I'm getting the pdx import since I can't afford the usa demmelition, but I will get it one day.

  • @acidtwinblaze That's right, even AMERICAN guitars have fatter tones.

  • I would gladly rip off these riffs.

  • thats a pretty sweet looking guitar

  • how much is it????????????

  • they couldnt get phil demmel to show it off? he wouldve showed us the sounds we expected to hear from it for the video

  • MY god does he have sideburns 0.0

  • Jackson is the real deal\m/

  • Paul ripped it up. Nice.

  • dat niggas crayyy-zeh!

  • thumbs up is a facebood quiz brought you here!

  • Aha i bought mine the other day

    SOO GOOD

    but mines a pdx but no difference lol

    i mite do a review for you guys ;D

  • 1:44 looks like he's fapfapfaping

  • Has he ever reviewed a guitar that he hated. He seems to like em all.

  • @tenhundredkills that's why he didn't review the zakk wylde casket/shovel :)) guitar.

  • hahah HE FARTED 0:21

  • hahah HE FARTED 0:25

  • I wonder, if everyone who makes comments like, "not so good, it lacks of technique, he can not play this, or he can not play that, or" I play better, "if they are as good as they say or think, why they not have jobs like this, or that do not play in front of large audiences, or working on a record label?

  • this one or the matt tuck signature rhoads

    ???

  • @JMDV1 this

  • @JMDV1 if you're not gonna use Floyd Rose, I'd go for Matt's...

  • 11-56 for B?? O.o

  • that guitar is so nice...only if it didn't have that damn floyd rose i would buy it

  • @Hateeternal2009 dido dude floyds are a pain in the ass

  • I know this is stupid but what can I use to make the fretboard on my guitar as shiny as this one? I have a Jackson if that helps.

  • @sfh113 polish?

  • this guy is funny when he tries to play some metal stuff xD

  • Black and Silver....OH MY GOD...SO FUCKIN SEXY

    the only thing that turns me off about it is the Trem...and the tone for the neck pickup....

    But other than that, this thing is fuckin boss.

  • that good one)

    because of tuning )

  • my god i get so tired of people saying paul cant play metal-.-

    my god he isnt half fucking bad!

    so what he isnt fucking kerry king they didnt hire him to play strictly metal!!!

    they hired him becouse he's a very good versatile guitarist!

    give the man a break he didnt practice metal his whole damn life

  • @slipknotandmh He is fucking good at palying! :D

  • @slipknotandmh yeah that is nicely said. and also not even he is good guitarist, he is also good reviewer =)

  • @slipknotandmh he isn't kerry king? rofl kerry king is the worse guitarist of them all, that wasn't really a good xample man, id rather say : he isn't fucking Gary Holt...

  • @slipknotandmh kerry king is horrible

  • @slipknotandmh he should have practiced metal his whole damn life if he was reviewing metal i repeat METAL guitars and by the way he isnt kerry king... kerry king sucks more than this guy jeff hanneman was the one who wrote the riffs for slayer and kerry king just plays a gargle of high notes and calls it a solo

  • @rainbowchickenfish He demos teles, Nylon and steel string acoustics, rock and metal pedals, amps, pauls, strats, so NOT ALL METAL GUITARS dipshit

  • @MartyFriedmanRulez66 @MartyFriedmanRulez66 i never said that he only demos metal guitars dipshit... by metal guitars, i refer to ESPs, Jacksons, BC rich etc. this guitar here that hes demoing? guess what... its a METAL guitar. in my opinion he should stick to the telecasters and les pauls you mentioned but whats he doing on the video? demoing a METAL guitar. congratulations, you now look like an illiterate jackass on the internet.

  • @rainbowchickenfish That is what you were implying moron, and btw he plays that guitar just fine, he plays METAL just fine, what do want some death metal oh wait he can do that too? You want them to hire a guitar player for every style just so you can stop having your period? They hired him because he's a versatile guitar player who can play very well in every style, now pull the tampon out of your twat and get off the fucking video

  • @MartyFriedmanRulez66 no thats what you thought i was implying. and sure he plays guitar fine but certainly not METAL. your definition of metal is probably along the likes of korn, deftones and slipknot which arent METAL. and yes i do want them to hire someone better. and judging by what you think is metal your not too qualified to say what is metal and what isnt. why dont YOU pull the tampon out of YOUR twat

  • @rainbowchickenfish that's Nu-metaldipshit which is a subdivision of metal, what he was playing IS the metal style, Death metal, is it the only metal genre in the world if that is the style you want him to play, btw he can pull that off too, maybe thrash? oh nope he plays that too, I'm done talking to you retard it's people like you that make the world what it is now shit

  • @slipknotandmh well said dude

  • paul cant play metal music at all.

  • He can't play Machinehead songs because of copyright issues, thumbs up so stupid people know right away...

  • What are the King V models that go for under $800? because I'm totally confused with all the different models...

  • @ridethelightning64 Musiciansfriend that stuff, man.

  • awesome, and i want it, not so much as i want my own custom.

  • Michael J. Fox... u suck playing metal >_<

  • 0:52 did he say? "and this one particular one"... :S

  • @Stevo4411 hahhaa

  • Anyone else think he looks like Ben Mount from Pendulum?

  • If this had the neck/headstock binding like Phil's customs and 12th fret inlays i'd buy it. It's ugly otherwise

  • @deathblackthrashing and had a toggle.

  • This guitar is fucking NICE. I played one at Guitar Center and it fucking WAILED.

  • that guitar is beast

  • ahh man, it sounds awful. i'll stick with my Strat.

  • Crazy metal farmer ^^

  • this i s probably the first time paul hasnt said 'lets try it on a clean setting'

  • Wow...!!

  • learn how to do bends.

  • how in the hell do you tune a guitar with a floyd down to B? i have trouble just tuning mine to drop D

  • @hippiecurtis maybe let it do a guy from your musicstore?

    they know how to do it

  • @hippiecurtis Really? With the right strings you can take it down to A standard...have a tech check it out in case there's something wrong with it.

  • @hippiecurtis wtf is just dropping e to d not tht hard

  • @hippiecurtis ehm. you just release the string locker at the head, tune it, then lock the string locker, then adjust the tuning at the Floyd Rose bridge? Was that hard?!

  • @Marcus666Sund yes actually, because then you have to mess with the springs and the bridge height and its just a pain in the ass compared to a non-tremolo guitar

  • @hippiecurtis Yeah, I agree with you, its much more pain in the ass compared to a non tremolo guitar, but think of what you get with a Floyd Rose.

  • @hippiecurtis You need to ajust the springs in the back until you have the string to bridge spring tension even.

  • The best guitar is "Jackson"♫♪

  • the red one is a ittle nicer i think! thats just my opinion

  • i dont think 11-56 work for B tuning for C i have heard of 13-60 god these new day guitarist r so stupid god damn if u want a B guitar instead of just losing the high notes u can get on ur e string for solos instead when u tune down y dont u just invest in a seven string guitar god guitarists these days r so retarded

  • How bout tuning to E or D? Would there be any problem?

  • @KenBory the truss rod is probably adjusted for really for really low tunings

  • @jerrykane01 Tks, getting one but I normally play at E or D. All the way down to B is very low.

  • @KenBory No problems, would just need adjustments which you do anyway...truss rod, intonation, bridge height. I have played one of these in E standard (my friend's) and it's awesome.

  • @klummster88 Thks mate. I already ordered one. Waiting for it to arrive. \m/

  • i need a decision. Jackson kv5fr or the demmelition king v

  • wooo.... thats some cool shreddin......

    i want his job wen im older

  • I've played this guitar side by side with the Washburn James Malone and I'm going to buy the Washburn.The Washburn's neck is the fastest I've ever played and I like the look and feel better and the stock passive p/up's sound great!!This guitar is a great guitar to me so don't get me wrong but it is way over priced for what it is.And remember Paul is using better equipment here than most can afford.

  • I need someones opinion, I dont know if I should get a black one or red one I kinda want to get a red one but I already have a red les paul, red stratocaster, red flying V someone help me out here.

  • @306741lock Get black. There you go.

  • @306741lock Get a black one dude. Looks awesome.

  • @306741lock dude theRED one

  • pauls an awesome guitar player but i have one peice of advice for him when he does the demos............TURN DOWN THE REVERB!!!!

  • Those are not shit riffs? I can see you one of those guitarcenter douchbags...not all are like that since i know some but most are. If your actually better then him...great for you. What are you gonna do? bitch about it on youtube? thats cool I see how your gonna go far in the music world.

  • Phil Demmel's guitar was not built to play those shit riffs

  • Again im seeing guitar all in smudges - get a cloth and guitar polish, it would make such a diff..now some guitars may look cool all in smudges and beaten up even - but when doing a review of a brand new instument, straight from the box, it really should look its best.

  • mmm crunchy :D

  • i wish i could have one of these shred worthy machines

    id want a kelly or warrior thou jackson is definetly amazing

  • after kerry kings singnature flying V's that jackson is the meanest V i've ever seen

  • phil uses his signature demelition model jackson king v with active emg 81 and 85.

    He runs the Peavey 6505 series amps aswell.

  • @liamware7 no he uses active emg 81 and 60 not the 85

  • which amp he used ?

  • O_O

  • is the trem original or is it frt-02000?

  • @uncharted97 Its a Japanese made Flyd Rose Original, I think.. Either that or the Schaller

  • @uncharted97 it's Floyd Rose Original double-locking 2-point tremolo

  • @uncharted97

    its an original floyd rose made in germany

  • nice. what gauge strings does it come with?

  • It comes with .011-.056 in a drop B tuning.

  • Ha, the pdx has a bolt-on neck and its finished!!!

  • Its an ENTIRELY different guitar man... Heres a list of some of the differences: Firstly it has a shorter body, with a bolt on neck, jackson pickups, jackson double locking trem, and it doesnt have switch craft blade and CRS volume pots... Wheras the REAL demmeltion has Neck -Thru, EMG 81, 60 actives, Floyde Rose Original trem and CRS po and Swichcraft blade....

  • dammit thanks man

  • The PDX doesnt have jackson pickups, its has EMG-HZ passives.

  • @CANADAmAn85 My mistake man... :)

  • its still good enough tho

  • Jackson have great guitar, but I hate the unfinished neck too. All Esp and Ltd guitars over 500$ have a finished neck ( I think ) and they have a good brutal/metal song with their EMG's ( the majority of Esp/Ltd ) but i Prefer the Blackouts or the Livewire of Seymour Duncan ( My favorites are the Dave Mustaine LiveWire ). If you search a great guitar, Esp/Ltd is the great way for you ( quality/price )

  • does the new pdx have an unfinished neck or finished?

  • unfinished, but its a bolt-on, which sucks so yeah...

  • i prefer bolt on so its a better guitar for me cos all of my other guitars are bolt on unfinished necks

  • Ah fuck, that really does suck. I was considering buying the PDX sometime in the late future, but I hate unfinished Jackson necks. I really don't know how they couldn't have carried something so simple to the import model.

  • its finished just still is a bolt on

  • This guy is an animal!!!! Very nice!!!

  • you can play it in standard tuning right? xD

  • he said this guitar need no introduction, and he then itros its........ FAIL

  • if this thing had a reverse headstock i would kill for one

  • order a custom, you'll pay a shitload of money, but you'll get your reverse headstock ;)

  • Jackson = King of Metal

  • @SpaceAceTX If Jackson is so good, so why many great guitarists that have used them before, has changed to use the others, like Dave mustaine, Alexi Laiho, James Root, Galder and Silenoz from Dimmu Borgir and some othes, do u have any ideas???

  • @minazmorgul Yes, it's called money. Read artist rig setup in Guitar Player for a dose of reality.

  • @minazmorgul Because, in the real world, there is something called a contract... And this magical piece of documentation can sometimes make life tough for musicians who are either trying to get more of their custom instruments or who are trying to make a new custom instrument altogether... It has absolutley nothing to do with Jackson Guitars themselves who are the best shred machines Ive ever played...

  • @thesouthafricanguy Sorry that I still have to ask you, what's in the contract that they have to do? Will they earn any money if the guitar company can sell their signatures?

    I'll appreciate so much if you can tell me more about this, please...

  • @minazmorgul Contracts differ from company to company and even artist to artist... Some can be strict others less strict... Usuaully a contract will state that the player plays nothing but the signature guitar in public for two years or something... Can restrict the artist... I know Alexi Laiho had his custom Jacksons stolen from him and asked Jackson for more... They told him it would be a year, so he went to ESP

  • @thesouthafricanguy But the artists do not get any money, right????

  • @minazmorgul I don't think that the artist gets any money from their own signature guitar being bought by the public no....

  • @thesouthafricanguy Thanks a lot, man:)

  • @minazmorgul No problemo man... Anything to help out a fellow muso :)

  • @SpaceAceTX Sorry, man, for my bad English, I don't understand

  • @SpaceAceTX ESP=king of metal, jacksons are nice though

  • @SpaceAceTX I also like BC rich it really depends what I am playing

  • Wow fantastic guitar, I am increasingly concerned to take away my shitty ibanez, and take either a jackson or esp^^

  • i am gettin rid of my gio ibanez for the king v.

    gio ibanez is my first guitar

  • ESP makes great guitars, but they all sound the same... I can't say much about Jackson, cause I have a cheap King V, but it's the best playing guitar I have ever had in my hands! I have played the Demmelition V and it's fucking awesome! but I suggest you exchange the EMG for Seymoar Duncan blackouts...

  • win

  • OMG I've got goosebumps all over my body and I feel licke I'm about to drool every moment... (O_O)'

    This guitar is really attracting me in every way... :D

  • ive been looking at this guitar for a while but im curious how the neck is. It's between this and the Alexi 600, ive played the alexi and I really like the neck (low action, thin) how is the neck on this one? or any other suggestions on similar guitars?

  • They are pretty similar. This one is a little thicker, but still very comfortable.

    I actually prefer this to the alexi.

  • man if u can play an Ibanez MTM 1 or MTM2 signature the neck is prety much the exact same i own the MTM2 and ive played the Demel V and the neck is nice thin and wide, the demel v is beautifull

  • try it out in a guitar shop......duh......

  • really frankis? i wouldve nvr thought of that...cmon man. the closest place that would even consider carrying that is an hour away and they dont have it, otherwise i would smartass.

  • 8-P ...........lol

  • Get the jackson. More versitile and doesn't have shitty passive EMGs

  • What do you mean, "shitty passive EMGs"? Dude, I have an ESP with dual EMG H4s, and it's one of the best-sounding guitars I have.

  • Yea i have noticed the same thing at Aleksi guitars that the neck is really nice.

  • 3:32 ..does it say "Weenz" on the women's bathroom sign?

  • yup

  • omg i need one, has my maple neck and ebony finger board id take out the emgs and put in rockfields it would be a fucking orgasm in a guitar

  • Can anyone complaining about Paul's playing post a clip better than this?

    I hear silence.

    Glass houses brother . . . .

  • Hell no they can't !!!

    But they can sit on their fat ass eating tater chips and cutting everything & everyone down.

    Prove me wrong, let's see the critics playing . . . . we're waiting.

    Paul doesn't get going till 3:30 on this but he's is pretty good on the solo sample.

    It's a REVIEW people not a CD cut that is cleaned and spliced and dubbed at a studio.

  • lol nice

  • with this guitar are you able to tune from say like standard tuning down to dropped B. I play in both tunings but my ibanez with a floyd rose cannot be down tuned from standard unless i tighten or loosen the strings in the back. Is that the same with this guitar?

  • if two tuning that far apart from each like that you should just have two guitars, it will mess with the intonation

  • oh yea i would think that that is a big gap. but how bout would i be able to tune form dropped c down to b without changing anything?

  • that is the problem with ALL floating tremolos... thats why the professionals have other people to tune and restring their guitars.. :D this is one of the reasons im selling my floyd rose guitars and buying some with string trough or stopbar.
