I've seen Bon Jovi last Thursday, 13th of june in Nijmegen, The Netherlands. It was awesome, just awesome. Jon's voice might be wrecked from all the touring, but the spirit is still there. Phil X is just an extraordinary performer, a worthy replacement.
Love that Johns rundown has this producer perspective a little more than a touring musician one, not many people get into mics, plug ins, etc, especially talking about a studio thing.
Phil X's guitar demos back in the day and his abiding enthusiasm is one of the things that first got me into learning about guitars and being a total nerd about them. Glad to see he is still enjoying himself. Also his guitars look rad as hell. Serious mojo.
I met Phil X last weekend at the guitar show in Birmingham, England. What a great guy, I bought a white strat at the show and got Phil to sign it, made my day.
always love the comments on these videos. clearly john is just a hack with too much gear. i mean, dude hasn't done much in the music biz besides playing, producing or writing for bon jovi, michele branch, the corrs, chris isaak, keith urban, sting, stevie nicks, bonnie raitt, joe cocker, sheryl crow, carlos santanna, celine dion, alanis morissette, robbie robertson, miley cirus, kelly clarkson, goo goo dolls, nelly furtado, gavin degraw, colbie caillat, rita wilson, liz phair, mika, take that, leann rimes, rod stewart, dwight yoakam, the vamps, natasha bedingfield, leona lewis, big & rich, montgomery gentry, rascall flatts nikka costa, shedaisy, dave stewart, sara evans, pat monahan, enrique iglesias, meat loaf, jewel, paul stanley, beth hart, eisley, lisa loeb, shinedown, vertical horizon, fleetwood mac, janes addiction, pink, sr71, sass jordan, paula abdul, and some crappy rock band named van halen. not much of a resume, really.
Danyjeff I would have loved to see his Chris Hofschneider made sigantures that ESP released back in the day. He seemed to have had a lot of them in different set ups.
Phil X 's trademark spaced out is way cool, especially when you realize what an incredibly talented guitar player and humble man he really is...Thanks to PG for interviewing him....
I freaking love Phil, man... He's an awesome guitarist and a great guy. A few years ago I was at this music camp and I had the awesome opportunity to have been in his band and got to learn from the best. He's so funny and gives awesome advice, one of the guys at the music store where I take lessons is really good friends with Phil as well
I love the contrast between the first guitar player and the bass player. First dude has 3 million pedals/amps/guitars and the bass player has a nice and easy rig.
JS is such a technical guru he really knows his rig as if it were his pet. The hallmarks of a true damn professional. Whereas a hack would be a muso who had no idea about technical issues. It pays to know everything about your craft and this man is a damn genius!
I've known about John Shanks for years and years as a producer and guitar player, but never got to see an in-depth interview with him. Great interview, but dang, his segment was over 50 minutes!!! His tech is earning his paycheck for sure.
MAN I LOVE PHIL X; HE IS CLEARLY SO IN LOVE WITH GUITAR AND YOU CAN HEAR IT IN HIS FEEL, PLUS HE KNOWS HOW TO PICK GUITARS; THESE GUITARS ARE SUCH GREAT ARSENALS!!!
Wow I have never been bored during a Rig Rundown before! I normally love sitting with a coffee and absorbing all the guitar geekery... then finally at 53:00 Mr. Phil X comes along and everything is better again! :D
I mean, hell, out of everybody in this Rig Rundown, he's been with that band the longest, even before they had him take over bass duties full-time. I feel like the only reason they didn't make him an official member until fairly recently is solely because he never had the sex appeal Alec John Such did in the '80s and because they didn't want to create any drama in the years following his dismissal. But Hugh is without a doubt one of the very best rock n' roll bass players ever.
wish we all lived life on a high like Phil. His call on reverb is spot on how I feel. never thought about the pull of neck pick ups. I bet his set up is a lot more robust than rack gear.
watching this again, I realize Bon Jovi is one of the few groups that's gone through and shown there own stuff in Rig Run Down. And god damn, John really went into detail on exactly what he uses for each bit.
Everybody talking about Phil x. Nobody mentions the bass man at the end of the video is such a cool and relaxed man. Very simple and effective musician. Love that.
Probably because he didn't want to step on Framus's toes at that point I can only assume. I really think if Mark Agnesi hadn't gone to Gibson to run whatever department he's in charge of then Phil doesn't get an endorsement. Not that Phil asked for it, I think Agnesi went for internet and RUclips guys (Didn't Marty Swartz get something from Gibson as well?)
@@simonb.9414 I think they're just trying to get you to Google, 'Dirty Sanchez', which probably isn't a great idea. For those who can't help needing to know, it's basically painting a literal shit mustache on someone, usually with a certain part of the male body, after a certain kind of sexual activity, either for sexual gratification, or for shits and giggles whole asserting dominance. It's considered an urban ledgend by many, but, and even though I haven't tried to, I'm sure there's pictures and videos out there of the act. You know, rule 44, and all.
He made a lot of references to The Edge, didn't he? I think there were even a couple more when he was thinking of The edge but didn't bring it up. Very interesting
Great Rig Rundown. John Shanks is a living world book of knowledge. He is the most impressive and smartest person on gear that you have ever interviewed. John needs to write a book or Premier Guitar needs to do a long series of stories with him.
Thank you guys so much for asking about Evil Robot! I had been searching for ages about info about what happens. Feels good to have a bit of closure on where they disappeared to, would still love to get one if I could though.
Jeez, for me to have ONE Les Paul or even a high quality copy would make my decade. All these awesome guitars! I'm ten shades of green. Nice to know that someone out there is having a great time living my dream life : )
I got this pseudo kind of clean lower mid pallet distortion that's kind of through a plexi with nothing on and one mic. Makes very little sense and I like all the wet stuff. Phil X is another story he just rocks!
I love it. Just like me. Gotta have total control, in stereo. Pre-sound guys. :-). Makes me feel better. Really one of the coolest , most in depth rig rundowns ever. Perfect. I'm a Kemper guy live these days.
Richie Sambora was pretty much the only reason I ever listened to Bon Jovi to begin with. Really, everybody But Jon was, they're all absolute world-class musicians who are unbeatable at their craft, but Richie Sambora was very much the frontman without being the frontman. His voice carried like nobody else's and the Wanted Dead or Alive riff alone is something that nobody else could've come up with if they tried.
After seeing the John Shanks video its pretty obvious why Trace is on this one. I hope he is making a ton of money to deal with this nonsense every day. From Angus to this. Even Joe Perry's gear made way more sense.. I met Trace on AC/DC and he was super cool. I even sent him a Facebook message with a question that he actually responded to and answered me.. Class Dude
Framus makes really great guitars. I added a pickup to a Framus 12 string acoustic from the mid 60's and it was made very strong, 50 yrs later and the neck set was perfect. They're expensive, but better super well made. They make Warwick Basses too.
Sea-Saw Why not just serve her divorce papers. Why would you want to be around a woman who's gonna bitch about something like that. Ain't no pussy in the world worth that kind of grief.
I so want John's white HSS Suhr, that is gorgeous. Of course my favorite guitarist Pete Thorn's signature is sick too. Love the Thornbuckers! Great Rig Rundown.
At least he had some interesting/different basses. Even as a bass player, the usual "well here's my Fender p-bass, and here's my Ampeg SVT..." gets kinda old.
Agreed, I'm a bassist and sometimes use effects and even a wireless, but essentially I prefer to keep it as simple as possible and use just a Bass, Amp and DI, with just a tuning Pedal.
The bass section is always the blandest part of these because bassist dont really use too much. The only run down that the bassist took more time than the guitarist was with Doug Wimbish from Living Colour
Bon Jovi is fast becoming Jon's solo band with each passing year. Between Tico and David, who do you think will be next on the chopping block? I wonder if Richie and Alec are glad they're not a part of this debacle anymore?
This is great and extremely informative, but I miss the days when Bon Jovi was a five piece kick ass band... unfortunately now it’s just a cover band with a cast of thousands on stage 🙁
Phil makes a "statement" at 54:34 that he believes a neck pickup will dampen sustain with the magnet pull, and I hate to contradict Phil, but that has been proven to be a myth. I watched Will of Wills Easy guitar put a giant magnet (like a couple hundred pound pull magnet) and he placed it almost touching the strings, and it did not change the sustain one iota.

Phil X has been having the best day of his life for 40 years straight.
I've seen Bon Jovi last Thursday, 13th of june in Nijmegen, The Netherlands.
It was awesome, just awesome. Jon's voice might be wrecked from all the touring, but the spirit is still there. Phil X is just an extraordinary performer, a worthy replacement.
instablaster.
I'm only here for Phil X
Straight to 53:00
I can't believe he takes the BBQ JMP on tour. I'd be afraid it would break or get smashed.
TheZooropaBaby johns stuff is very impressive......too
Gloveberg sweet thanks
same
Shanks monopolizes the entire video. What a turd.
Phil X is like a labrador who also happens to be an insanely talented guitarist. Massive respect.
52:58 is when he starts talking to Phil X
Charles Willis I needed that! Thanks chief!
Charles Willis You da man!
Thanks!
who's phil x?
mainlymusicman 🙄
Watching Phil X on Premier Guitar is like the Simpsons/Family Guy crossover episode.
a really shitty episode
Not really. That would be Phil X with Greg Koch.
jonny demarco was insane, he probably sell more boss than anyone else! He could sell ice to skimo! huahuauha
I think he watched the movie son in law with pauly shore a few too many times!
Love that Johns rundown has this producer perspective a little more than a touring musician one, not many people get into mics, plug ins, etc, especially talking about a studio thing.
1 hour and 20 minute rig rundown! Love sitting down to one of these with a fresh drink.
ryeyanmatthew s Or five...
On my second bourbon. Just gets better.
me to
second Busch now
6 beers later...
Phil X's guitar demos back in the day and his abiding enthusiasm is one of the things that first got me into learning about guitars and being a total nerd about them. Glad to see he is still enjoying himself. Also his guitars look rad as hell. Serious mojo.
Woohoo Phil been watching you since the early Fretted Americana days!!
Sco, me too!
I met Phil X last weekend at the guitar show in Birmingham, England. What a great guy, I bought a white strat at the show and got Phil to sign it, made my day.
This is by far my favourite rig rundown. A real guitar geek!
I could listen to Phil talk guitars all day.

not much of a resume, really.
crestifer j ha 1000000000% with you
crestifer j I agree(not sarcastically) that ISN'T much of a resume. Where's the good bands?
You're actually John Shanks aren't you...?
haha. no.
that's a impressive resume ..seriously janes addiction.
John is a really cool guy - he doesn't talk just for saying something, he thinks over all questions and then answers in a honest way - really nice!
Anybody else's mind melting trying to listen to Shanks while they're sound checking the mics?
Awesome it was great meeting you john you guys rock thank you so much !!!
He said "well Tico's not changing drums so I don't change basses." Rhythm section sticks together. LOL
I’ve met Phil once at a rock camp, and honest to god, he is the best guitar player I’ve ever seen in my life!!!
I wish they had done it when Richie was around, he had some really interesting stuff in his rig. But this is great as well, thanks Premier Guitar!
It's not too late, Richie is doing tour dates with RSO! PG can still get a hold of him! ;D
GlamourSwinexXx So true, but I guess his RSO rig is quite stripped down compared to what he used with Bon Jovi. Nonetheless I'd still love to see it.
If they had done that it would have taken 2 hours just to get through his Guitars
Danyjeff I would have loved to see his Chris Hofschneider made sigantures that ESP released back in the day. He seemed to have had a lot of them in different set ups.
Shanks is an incredible musician... he's also a wonderful example of how perfect gigs could be lol... we can dream
John is great! Love that he opens up about all his stuff! Big fan!
Phil X 's trademark spaced out is way cool, especially when you realize what an incredibly talented guitar player and humble man he really is...Thanks to PG for interviewing him....
I only wish the Shanks portion had been a little more thorough. We didn't find out what brand of nail file he uses, nor his preferred guitar polish.
Especially considering how influencial he is for the guitar world
Spot on, I can't understand why his time was cut short...
"..a la Gilmour"
Hahahahahaha😂......good one 👍
He covered 40 yrs. of research in an HR. He even pulls out a baritone telly
I didn't see an electric 12 string
Suhr is nice if you can afford it
One of the best Rig Rundowns in ages. I loved the Phil X interview.
Check out his video wirh Mark Agnesi for Gibson TV about his collection
@@mikl1987 Cool video!! Phil X is so positive and full of charm. He is a joy to watch when he plays and also when he speaks.
I freaking love Phil, man... He's an awesome guitarist and a great guy. A few years ago I was at this music camp and I had the awesome opportunity to have been in his band and got to learn from the best. He's so funny and gives awesome advice, one of the guys at the music store where I take lessons is really good friends with Phil as well
But no one I mean no one can replace Richie
Chris asking: what’s your favourite guitar?
Phil X: shut up.
I love the contrast between the first guitar player and the bass player. First dude has 3 million pedals/amps/guitars and the bass player has a nice and easy rig.

His tech is probably one of the highest paid in the business!
MAN I LOVE PHIL X; HE IS CLEARLY SO IN LOVE WITH GUITAR AND YOU CAN HEAR IT IN HIS FEEL, PLUS HE KNOWS HOW TO PICK GUITARS; THESE GUITARS ARE SUCH GREAT ARSENALS!!!
Last rig rundown had one guitar, no pedals and one amp. What a difference.
Goss Samer Phil was too rock n roll for Jon
Be cool to see an updated rig rundown now that phil has gone to gibson
How can anybody not love Phil X... Like a caffeinated Jim Morrison!
that's what I love about Phil. It's just all about simplicity in his rig and just rock n' roll. Shanks is almost the antithesis of Phil.
Wow I have never been bored during a Rig Rundown before! I normally love sitting with a coffee and absorbing all the guitar geekery... then finally at 53:00 Mr. Phil X comes along and everything is better again! :D
Thank you so much for the time stamp...
Phil X took Wayne’s World & School of Rock & created his own vibe we all love. Rock on Phil! Brought a whole new fan base to Bon Jovi.
Hugh reminds me of the dad who happens to rebuild cars in his garage. The cars are really cool, but you don't really picture him driving fast.
I mean, hell, out of everybody in this Rig Rundown, he's been with that band the longest, even before they had him take over bass duties full-time. I feel like the only reason they didn't make him an official member until fairly recently is solely because he never had the sex appeal Alec John Such did in the '80s and because they didn't want to create any drama in the years following his dismissal. But Hugh is without a doubt one of the very best rock n' roll bass players ever.
The studded Tele, dancing girls, and barbque JVM! Amazing pieces as well as the Sadowskys.
Thanks.
wish we all lived life on a high like Phil. His call on reverb is spot on how I feel. never thought about the pull of neck pick ups. I bet his set up is a lot more robust than rack gear.
same reason esquires always sound beter than teles.
i,m amped all the time just lke phil we would hit it right off!!!!!!!!!
Phil X is 52 years old.
Never aging
John is such a gear head. He knows our plight! Haha. Seems like a good dude too. Killer gear! Unreal.
I love seeing some people react to Phil's personality. He's amazing
Wow Mr Shanks, 50 minutes of pure guitar geek..
watching this again, I realize Bon Jovi is one of the few groups that's gone through and shown there own stuff in Rig Run Down. And god damn, John really went into detail on exactly what he uses for each bit.
i want phil x to be my friend.
Karlos Romano Curo Plymouth Seabring 1972
Sorry, mistake reply
just buy him an 8 ball
or 2! lol
I party with Phil X
Everybody talking about Phil x. Nobody mentions the bass man at the end of the video is such a cool and relaxed man. Very simple and effective musician. Love that.
Phil X: "Not to mention the other guitar from the other company..." and now he is endorsed by that other company.
Probably because he didn't want to step on Framus's toes at that point I can only assume. I really think if Mark Agnesi hadn't gone to Gibson to run whatever department he's in charge of then Phil doesn't get an endorsement. Not that Phil asked for it, I think Agnesi went for internet and RUclips guys (Didn't Marty Swartz get something from Gibson as well?)
It's always fun to see and hear from the musicians about thier gear and see the passion about what they do. Very cool stuff!!
My wife walked in at 1:00:56 where Phil is talking about big knobs and asked what kind of weirdness I was watching now...
The word knob always makes me laugh.
straight guitar porn, that's what it is
lol
Best Comment Ever!
LMAO!!!
I would love to meet Phil, he is always positive and seems to be super down to earth and not just for the camera.
Maybe Chris's easiest interview ever. Hit the Phil X "on" switch and just stand back.
Brilliant episode. Really nice genuine people talking to other players as equals.
RIP Dirty Sanchez. Gone too soon.
who is dirty Sanchez?
@@simonb.9414 I think they're just trying to get you to Google, 'Dirty Sanchez', which probably isn't a great idea.

When I first met Phil 33 years ago, he was the same dude. Always awesome, always out there, always a down to earth amazing dude.
John Shanks seems very The Edge-inspired
He made a lot of references to The Edge, didn't he? I think there were even a couple more when he was thinking of The edge but didn't bring it up. Very interesting
Willem Kerpel that's what I was thinking
He was even doing "The Edge" while he was demoing
the swaying thing the Edge does when he's playing
Willem Kerpel i thought this same thing as soon as i saw the memory man in his rack lol then he said the edge 11 or 8 times after that
1h 20 min rig rundown. 1h 15 min guitars, 5 min bass. Love it.
Great Rig Rundown. John Shanks is a living world book of knowledge. He is the most impressive and smartest person on gear that you have ever interviewed. John needs to write a book or Premier Guitar needs to do a long series of stories with him.
VonBluesman dude forgot more about tone than I'll ever learn.
So nice of them to interview the band's dad at the end.
Can't wait for the RSO rig run down Richie, Ori and their bass player will be awesome.
Thank you guys so much for asking about Evil Robot! I had been searching for ages about info about what happens. Feels good to have a bit of closure on where they disappeared to, would still love to get one if I could though.
John Shanks: definitively answering the question, "How many guitars is enough?"
The correct answer will always be "just one more".
Jeez, for me to have ONE Les Paul or even a high quality copy would make my decade.
All these awesome guitars! I'm ten shades of green.
Nice to know that someone out there is having a great time living my dream life : )
OMG 44:13 into this and Im starting to get dizzy and sick almost from GEAR OVERDOSE!
As an absolute guitar nerd, I loved this.
Trace Foster. Tech for Joe Perry, Bon Jovi and Angus Young.
Living Legend, anyone?
Love Shanks,I could sit and talk gear with him for days.When you have been in the buisness long enough and have the money
Now I really want to know about that Explorer!!!!
Probably stolen
it is beacause it's a very well known guitar. you can google or wiki it anyway xD
Love how the sound guys still sound check with Steely Dan or Donald Fagen "The Nightfly".
The video starts at 53:00
Lol true enough
This is how I'd love to see every rig rundown! where the artists actually play something
shanks is one of these "more is more" guys.
I got this pseudo kind of clean lower mid pallet distortion that's kind of through a plexi with nothing on and one mic. Makes very little sense and I like all the wet stuff. Phil X is another story he just rocks!
you know that you rich when you use Kemper only when you're in hotel (^^)
That guy has a least half a million $ worth of Gear and guitars on that stage.
I love it. Just like me. Gotta have total control, in stereo. Pre-sound guys. :-). Makes me feel better. Really one of the coolest , most in depth rig rundowns ever. Perfect. I'm a Kemper guy live these days.
Shanks and Phil X are great, but that intro music made me really miss the originality of Richie Sambora.
True, its great that Bon Jovi can continue just as successfully but Richie Sambora adding something that can't be imitated or replaced.
Richie Sambora was pretty much the only reason I ever listened to Bon Jovi to begin with. Really, everybody But Jon was, they're all absolute world-class musicians who are unbeatable at their craft, but Richie Sambora was very much the frontman without being the frontman. His voice carried like nobody else's and the Wanted Dead or Alive riff alone is something that nobody else could've come up with if they tried.
I to was here for Phil, but that John Shanks, that dude was a blast got's to be my favorite rig rundown yet.
Phil X is a good player and seems to be a cool dude but I really miss Sambora in the band
Awesome Rig Rundown! Tons of gear with cool dudes!
John Shanks OVERKILL
Man Phil x never gets old always happy
Yeah I wish I had his serotonin 😀
Guitar Tech Trace Foster get's around. Joe Perry, Angus Young, John Shanks etc,
After seeing the John Shanks video its pretty obvious why Trace is on this one. I hope he is making a ton of money to deal with this nonsense every day. From Angus to this. Even Joe Perry's gear made way more sense.. I met Trace on AC/DC and he was super cool. I even sent him a Facebook message with a question that he actually responded to and answered me.. Class Dude
Framus makes really great guitars. I added a pickup to a Framus 12 string acoustic from the mid 60's and it was made very strong, 50 yrs later and the neck set was perfect. They're expensive, but better super well made. They make Warwick Basses too.
keep in mind. there is a reason why the old framus guitars are cheap
Next time the missus moans about me having too many guitars I'll just show her this vid. Might shut her up for a while....
Sea-Saw Why not just serve her divorce papers. Why would you want to be around a woman who's gonna bitch about something like that. Ain't no pussy in the world worth that kind of grief.
@@TempoDrift1480 she would get half of the guitars
@@TempoDrift1480 lol chill dude! U dont leave someone u love just because they moan a bit. Every woman moans, especially when im givin them the D.
Yeah man but guitars aren't exactly like shoes for instance. You only need one to play any kind of music. Right?
I so want John's white HSS Suhr, that is gorgeous. Of course my favorite guitarist Pete Thorn's signature is sick too. Love the Thornbuckers! Great Rig Rundown.
"I collect Pete Cornish pedals" oh man.
I like that the last tiny little piece of the video is for the bass player :)
5 minutes for bass XD
just bring one bass and go DI tey said
At least he had some interesting/different basses. Even as a bass player, the usual "well here's my Fender p-bass, and here's my Ampeg SVT..." gets kinda old.
Agreed, I'm a bassist and sometimes use effects and even a wireless, but essentially I prefer to keep it as simple as possible and use just a Bass, Amp and DI, with just a tuning Pedal.
That can be true, but personally I prefer the simple setup (though mine is a J rather than a P lol )
The bass section is always the blandest part of these because bassist dont really use too much. The only run down that the bassist took more time than the guitarist was with Doug Wimbish from Living Colour
Shanks is like an Aston Martin - Phil X is like a Dodge Hellcat 😂🎸
Bon Jovi is fast becoming Jon's solo band with each passing year. Between Tico and David, who do you think will be next on the chopping block? I wonder if Richie and Alec are glad they're not a part of this debacle anymore?
RJC 72 after the last couple of albums I bet Richie is so glad he left
The Jon Bon Jovi solo project has some awesome hired guns.
This is great and extremely informative, but I miss the days when Bon Jovi was a five piece kick ass band... unfortunately now it’s just a cover band with a cast of thousands on stage 🙁
I disagree
I love that "the bass rundown" is about 5 minutes, and is placed at the end haha.
I wonder how Jealous Rob Chapman is right now haha
Daryl Smith why? Serious question.
i suppose it's because rob and phil are friends, if that's what you mean
Who?
Who is Rob Chapman???
its david chapman mate
I dont know shit about guitars but I always watch videos of phil explaining endless information.
I don't really like the band but I'm super impressed that they aren't having techs doing any of their stuff
Love the Donald Fagen reference track in the background
PLEASE DO ISAIAH SHARKEY AND JOHN MAYER ON HIS NEW TOUR
and this time get John to do his own gear instead of that random fuckboy in the video with becky
I've watched this so much.
Phil makes a "statement" at 54:34 that he believes a neck pickup will dampen sustain with the magnet pull, and I hate to contradict Phil, but that has been proven to be a myth. I watched Will of Wills Easy guitar put a giant magnet (like a couple hundred pound pull magnet) and he placed it almost touching the strings, and it did not change the sustain one iota.
Dimebag Dio Kilmister
So what?
let Phil believe what he wants
think so? then why do you slur words with a magnet like that close to your head? it happened on tv live with a news anchor
John really adds a lot of U2 textures!
