Phil X is God's gift to depressed people and he could make a cigar box sound good, but he has me drooling for this guitar. Unfortunately I'm sure I can't afford it. I wonder if current Esquires are any good?
@bambismash Maybe his ego's gravitational pull counterbalances the pickup's magnetic pull on the strings. But seriously, it doesn't come across as ego to me at all! He's just a natural rock and roll front man engaging the audience. There must be some Leo in him.
@meantean thats because youtube gets messed up and stuff when many people view a video at once the video count freezes up and stop at like 302 and stuff it say 302 views on mine haha
how the fuck do these things work.. seriously its got a three way switching yet only one pick up id really like to know how they work if someone would tell me please :)
I use to think he was a nut but I've come around,- Phil X is a classic
"jimmy page... i love that guy!"
u expressed in 5 words how much i worship page.... you're awesome!
"Can't get my fill!!!......Wait.... I'm Phil" xD
As always, a great performance. Love these vids. I look forward to them in 2010.
This has to be the most lively and microphonic guitar I've ever seen haha
holy shit Phil, That was monsterous at the end, absolutely mind blowingly awesome. Phil X at his creative crazyness
Phil X is insane. Dude is fantastic.
I think I just witnessed some sort of weird kinky deflowering of an Esquire .. not sure what the hell I am saying but it was exciting
That last bit was just sick. Keep on rockin' in the free world Phil!
absolutely fantastic !! the player and the guitar belongs together
Very smooth sounding top-end... sounds almost IDENTICAL to my old vintage Mustang!! Very cool. Nice vid!
@bambismash
That's not ego, that's personality! :D
As this was posted on my birthday and Esquires are my favourite, i think it should be sitting here in my room :D
This Fender Esquier kicks. And only Phil can rock it. Awesome.
at 8:55 I thought Phil was about to destroy the whole store... cool dude! :)
Cheers Phil X. You make me smile and stimulate my brain with information....Oh and you play really well! ;)
Classic Phil "Can't get my fill.. What? That's like... I'm Phil!!" Haha
Phil X just made my morning.
i love your playing...very expressive man!
You got that old Esquire on fire ! lol
Good job man.
Is the beginning of the Black Dog solo the hardest thing to play? I'll never get it down. GRRRRRR!!!

I love this guy.
at the end... "Holy Fuck!"
Rock 'n Roll is Dead by Lenny Kravitz on this Esquire. Love to hear it.
@aw350meman69 it's $1,595 - email us for all the details. thanks...
Syd Barrett played an esquire all the way up until he got kicked out of Pink Floyd.
I love how he doesn't baby a 40 year old guitar, play it like you stole it!
he's a really good singer...
America's Got Talent!!!
i fucking love the tonemaster
HOLY SHIT shredding the esquire
Phil has perfect 'right hand technique' ???
One way of putting it!
I love esquires. But, damn, phil... how can you do that with 1 PU? You are an amazing player and that axe is a monster
The bit with the mic falling off makes me laugh every time. Sweeeeeet guitar! I want!
Is the opening song Phil's old band POWDER ??? whats the track called???
maple neek
Dude, you must be a real Lady Killer, like holy shit! I WANNA BE PHIL!
7:27 The first two notes he played before he went into that awesome solo reminded me of Rebel Rebel by David Bowie
An Esquire demo video by Phil X and no "Communication Breakdown"? I feel cheated!
I vote NO for the teleprompter - Phil's lyrics are way more entertaining than the real ones anyway
People who know who he is and what he does?
@Chipdaily77 Same here, 302.
it is called "over the nut" you pull or press the strings between the nut and the pegs
1 volume knob, 1 tone knob & everything on full.
It's total breakup.
I wonder what phils favorite band/composer is
@bambismash Maybe his ego's gravitational pull counterbalances the pickup's magnetic pull on the strings. But seriously, it doesn't come across as ego to me at all! He's just a natural rock and roll front man engaging the audience. There must be some Leo in him.
Yup
@grilguy he tunes the E string to a low A
is a toploading telecaster something special? cos i have an '04 toploading tele standard from japan, and i don't think it has any rare value
Dang Phil......call the fire department.....that thing is smoking!
jimmy page man (giddy laughter) I loove that guy! fucking hilarious
PHIL YOURE CRAZY MAN! i love your music if you want a telepromter just use a laptop with the lyrics up on youtube or something.
True PhilX rockout
didnt jimi page use an esquire? or was it a regular telecaster?
Phil as always good work! Maybe we'll donate .50 each so you can write them out with a sharpie and a pad. OH YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOO! Regards! CR
@Codence08 same man, gotta get a tonemonster. do they have a price yet?
i dont see a point in a 3 way switch but they sound great and have alot of twang!
Dude who's the intro by it's epic! It literally blew my balls off.
3:32 Good example how song writers take their words! Oh, and i LOL'd! xD
Cool
i vote for the teleprompter
I must know what pickups are used on that beaut :)
awesome.... although i am surprised he didnt snap a string lol, especially with a tele as people tend to put lighter gauge strings on them.
dats crazy sustaian!!!
Yup ....
9:01 LOOOOL
Life in the fast lane - Eagles
3:31 you are sofa king awesome dude haha
@skatermgee how do you know?!?!?!

@skatermgee Almost;) It's Phil Xenedis

@ViralVideoViewer The fun comes from him not knowing what to say next before he says it
@grilguy magic

"wassup bitches..." hahaha phil x is the man!
Sweet Ass Molasses !!

Same here. Welcome to the Matrix.
this one doesn't sound as good as the other esquires imo, its probably the string through body sustain thing. nonetheless id still sell my wife for it
The vid stops at 3 minutes :(
@meantean
thats because youtube gets messed up and stuff
when many people view a video at once the video count freezes up and stop at like 302 and stuff
it say 302 views on mine haha
he makes it sound like theres reverb on
Stevie Salas?
