Man.. Every time I get the guitar blues(the bad ones that make don't pick up the guitar) I just search for Phil X for inspiration...2 months without playing guitar and 5 day ago I opened one of Phil X videos where he played "Babe I'm gonna leave you" and sang at the same time and I learned how to play it. Thank you to : Phil X- Inspiration and awesome guitar mad skills Dustin Jack- You do awesome editing man Debra- for reading the messages and for Cap. Brass for Frettedamericana DUH xD
if i watch frettedamericana vids in the morning and phil wishes his viewers a kick-ass day i somehow always have one with amazing playing in my head all the time xD
Dude you've really encouraged me into learning about different types of guitars and how you can really change tones on a guitar. I used to just play to play, but i'm really starting to realize how closed minded i've been. And you're crazy good man, you really know how to bring out the life in each guitar. You're playing all the music that i love hearing but now i'm encouraged to actually listen to it, so i can make my own style out of it. Keep on rocking man and thanks!!
It just hit me while watching this video, your doing a great job on the editing man! Thats quite a bit of footage to put together on just one of these vids..!
I remember seeing this(or the 2nd) years ago....cool Custom Shop tribute the the man who was the actual "architect" of the Stratocaster, and Leo Fender's right-hand man in the good old days(Freddie Tavares). Thanks for allowing Phil to bring us this beautiful guitar.
Hey! I just took a road trip from Oregon to Canada (Vancouver B.C.) And I was like dude theres gonna be a new Phil X vid while Im up here, so I rented wireless internet so I could watch this!! Totally worth it for Purple Haze lol.. YEA!!
@frettedamericana i agree! a lot of people dont realize how hard it is to do this. i see 3? 4? cameras, and a couple mics...putting that together isnt a walk in the park :D bravo
this is the tribute guitar for the guy that designed the strat body? Freddie Tavares was an awesome musician and designer. Nice job on the whammy bar at 7:49 Phil :p What a beautiful guitar. I wonder why they did it in aluminum?
Hey fretted, is there clipping in this audio? Or is this just because we are watching through the youtoobs? And also, did Phil just break the vibrato arm? Naughty.
that strat sounds so sweet. Phil x whats your favorite guitar of all time, meaning if the world ended and you could only save one guitar what would it be?
Dude, you need a mic on you. I wanna ACTUALLY hear when you sing. Really nice reviews! You're a great singer and guitarrist, keep the excellent work Phil!
@Leviskardsen You have to realize that they don't shoot or edit these videos individually (if you look, Phil usually has the same shirt for like 15 videos). So I'm sure when they were all getting edited, whoever was editing probably wasn't watching the content or listening; he probably was just trying to produce quality videos by changing angles, etc. So I'm sure they wouldn't have changed the angle had they realized that Phil was demonstrating something.
FINALLY found out why the 'dlllllt' is in The Drills song, "From the Future" lol. Do you have many dogs in your vid edit suite Dustin? Lots of barks coming thru. ;-)
@F3FisGoodforYou thats why i where my shirt untucked when i play covers the belt buckle or i dont where big buckles but ether way i just untuck my shirt it covers the buckle and my guitars have little to no scratches(cant stop ware from playing) but the bottom line is there is no need to call phil a douchbag he is a skilled guitar player and loves doing what he dose sounds like a stand up guy in my book so phil is not the douchbag YOU ARE THE DOUCHBAG now enjoy the awesome guitar and player
@frettedamericana Hey Dusty. I have an idea. Unless you've tried it in a video that's not out yet, try the evil robot combo for the clean sound, and either keep the ER stack for the dirty tone or try something new (cause i'm one of the guys who likes when you change amps. especially when you used the fender deluxe.) but it's just a suggestion. sorry if i sound bossy.
Whats the name of the brazilian band which wants to cover The Drills? What city? I'm from Brazil! I wanna go to their show! That's the closest I can get to a The Drills concert right now hahaha!
I agree with Burger, get Phil to play some Rory, Tattoo Lady on an early 70's Strat, saw Rory live, met the guy, very sad loss, Hendrix rated him as the best in the world at one time.
Man.. Every time I get the guitar blues(the bad ones that make don't pick up the guitar) I just search for Phil X for inspiration...2 months without playing guitar and 5 day ago I opened one of Phil X videos where he played "Babe I'm gonna leave you" and sang at the same time and I learned how to play it.

@5H4V3D89 thanks for noticing!! we all work really hard making the show!
very few people on youtube can make me smile like phil x does. he just oozes cool.
So much Fun to Watch this, even as a Bass Player! 😉😎💥
@WideSword we have to switch it up once in a while, but the Vox will be back in the line..
Matt Bellamy from Muse actually has one of these Aloha Strats, I read him talking
about it before in the past.
at from 7:05 to 7:13 is Judas Priest Electric Eye
I just passed the Driver's License. And the First this that i did when i arrived home was to check fretted americana . You Guys ROCK !

I would watch Phil X talking about vacuum cleaners.
06:06 that sounded like the begining of "communication brakedown".Phil is great as always!
Hey! I just took a road trip from Oregon to Canada (Vancouver B.C.) And I was like dude theres gonna be a new Phil X vid while Im up here, so I rented wireless internet so I could watch this!! Totally worth it for Purple Haze lol.. YEA!!
Phil kicking a** with an awesome Strat. Love the pickups. Great job FA.
@frettedamericana i agree! a lot of people dont realize how hard it is to do this. i see 3? 4? cameras, and a couple mics...putting that together isnt a walk in the park :D bravo
Phil, officially my dog's FAVE FA video! "DRRRRRRRRD!" 😉🐾🐾
True shows man you lose something or do something wrong and just go with it. Love the guitar.
@loukanikos why? does she play Air Hockey??
@Biefstukhaas click the link in the description..
I loved the way Phil looked at the whammy bar when he rocked it off!
@cramele yes we do...please email me at debra at frettedamericana com for more info
the sound of this guitar really kicks ass!
You can play anything with strings and it would sound GREAT. Love that tone from those amps. OMG PX good job.
5:36 Awesome!
Amazing guitar playing, as always.
@axl8696 taken under advisement! ;)
We need a Phil X outtakes video!
@frettedamericana can you guys do some more of your basses? :D that would be awesomeee.
this is the tribute guitar for the guy that designed the strat body? Freddie Tavares was an awesome musician and designer. Nice job on the whammy bar at 7:49 Phil :p
What a beautiful guitar. I wonder why they did it in aluminum?
@xxaleckzandurrex thanks for the comment, man.
I still wanna see you throw down the solo from Aldo nova's tune Bright Lights big City
This is probably my favourite of the new FA vids
Purple Haze was fantastic!
What about the Jupiter Thunderbird ....hanging on the wall in the right corner .Can we get a " Phil X demo" from that one ??
@Guitarvirtuoso666 False.
The guitar was designed and used originally by Bo Diddley.
BIlly Gibbons fell in love with it and used it ever since.
should the evil robot be run in 30 watts or will keeping in 18 watts more closely reproduce the tonemaster tone?
Hey fretted, is there clipping in this audio? Or is this just because we are watching through the youtoobs? And also, did Phil just break the vibrato arm? Naughty.
the body finish looks like a dobro guitar very cool!
Can i get somewhere studio version of the song ''From the future'' ?
Thanks ;)
Matt Bellamy from Muse used to play an Aloha Strat... Love it!
that strat sounds so sweet. Phil x whats your favorite guitar of all time, meaning if the world ended and you could only save one guitar what would it be?
purple haze is now smoking out of my speakers. rock on mr badass.
@rickygable That's A LOT of dark barking!!
we need a demo on that billy bo ASAP
the reason wy i lik this guitar is because it give you a spacy feeling and thats good wen your playing
where can that awesome shirt be found?
XD I've been waiting to hear Purple Haze again! YAY!!! Thank ya Phil and FA!!!
The Evil Robot's awesome, but I think it would be pretty sweet to hear that strat through the AC30
@frettedamericana I meant a Gibson ES-137
@PropellerPower "Judas Priest - Electric Eye", but if you want to listen to the intro solo type "The Hellion/Electric Eye - Judas Priest" :)
Matt Bellamy of Muse had one of these!
Can you please make a review of the red billy gibbons guitar?
Would be nice:)
@evilrobotjim whatever she is, she plays amazing! The perfect sidekick for Phil X @ the fretted americana studio!
@danakerman just you! :P
hey Phil you are a great guitar player but i couldn't catch what is your sound?
@Rosaklausen You forgot the "please".
But, WE WANT TO HEAR THAT ONE, please.
btw. Are you from Germany?
@TheBrokenWing1 It's a Fender/Floyd Rose Deluxe Locking Bridge
fretted americana teased their fans in facebook before they released this video !
@frettedamericana bring back the marshall studio 15 that amp was awesome
Dude, you need a mic on you. I wanna ACTUALLY hear when you sing.
Really nice reviews! You're a great singer and guitarrist, keep the excellent work Phil!
What happened to the HD camera?
他の人の演奏だったら 聴いていられないけど、
なんとか 耐えられる!✨️
what's the song he starts playing right after the ripper?
Does anyone around here know where to buy a t-shirt like the one Phil is wearing in this video?
Could you play the Heavy Flamed Les Paul?
Why are they FINALLY mic'ing the amps?
What song is the solo from that he plays at 7:04?
@Leviskardsen You have to realize that they don't shoot or edit these videos individually (if you look, Phil usually has the same shirt for like 15 videos). So I'm sure when they were all getting edited, whoever was editing probably wasn't watching the content or listening; he probably was just trying to produce quality videos by changing angles, etc. So I'm sure they wouldn't have changed the angle had they realized that Phil was demonstrating something.
in 18 watt mode it'll be easier to crank up so I'd say that'd be better tonewise. But for a show the 30 watt mode is a must
FINALLY found out why the 'dlllllt' is in The Drills song, "From the Future" lol.
Do you have many dogs in your vid edit suite Dustin? Lots of barks coming thru. ;-)
love the judas and the drills parts!
A friend of mine said "Phil pronounced abalone wrong", at which point I simply replied "Phil didn't get it wrong, he simply corrected the world".
He plays in another band, cant remember the name right now, but they dress all wild and stuff. Their pretty good
Billy Bo demo soon?
please can you play " do you feel like we do" from peter frampton
Does anyone know what the song at 7:04 is called?
@F3FisGoodforYou thats why i where my shirt untucked when i play covers the belt buckle or i dont where big buckles but ether way i just untuck my shirt it covers the buckle and my guitars have little to no scratches(cant stop ware from playing) but the bottom line is there is no need to call phil a douchbag he is a skilled guitar player and loves doing what he dose sounds like a stand up guy in my book so phil is not the douchbag YOU ARE THE DOUCHBAG now enjoy the awesome guitar and player
hey Phill , how about some April Wine ....Please
@frettedamericana Hey Dusty.
I have an idea.

...the show must go on
how much does this beauty cost?
Whats the name of the brazilian band which wants to cover The Drills? What city? I'm from Brazil! I wanna go to their show! That's the closest I can get to a The Drills concert right now hahaha!
phil can you demo the guitar on the google homepage?!
Is this thing still in stock?
can you do friday with Danelectro?? Sounds AMAZING!
At 01:18 someone totally looked at Phil X like:
"WTF are you doing Phil?? Just praise the damn guitar!"
@DeezofRon His attempt to do a poker face after the whammy fell down was amazing.
I'm going to buy one of these guitars just so I can own something played by Phil X.
wow! he plays purple haze very well
@IMaiden23 Whats wrong with asking him to play it?
@PropellerPower You're welcome!
7:04 - whats that song?
@iLengzai YES!!!! email me at debra at frettedamericana com
Do you import the Evil Robots to Iceland?
I think somewhere on another Phil X video someone said "Phil X doesn't do cocaine, cocaine does Phil X." Sounds about right!
I laughed so hard when Phil pulled out the trem arm by mistake :P
I agree with Burger, get Phil to play some Rory, Tattoo Lady on an early 70's Strat, saw Rory live, met the guy, very sad loss, Hendrix rated him as the best in the world at one time.
you should totally do a review of the red gretsch duo jet man!!!
Can you play "The Trooper"?
