Wow. There are a lot of great guitarists to be found on the internet, so it's really impressive when you find one who really blows you away with their awesome ability. Man, Phil Keaggy is a name I'll be searching up a lot from now on. Just astounding playing. You're doing things that are truly unique and sound fantastic. Brilliant stuff.
Just listened to my new amp. Ordering it as soon as I change channels. Awesome demo Mr Phil Keaggy. Roland should be paying you royalties for this performance
I got the privilege of seeing him live back in 99, amazing live looper artist and amazing humble man! I got to meet him and have him a drawing I did of him and he loved it. Very humble, nice man. Been following his music for twenty seven years.
I’ve been following the brilliant Phil Keaggy since he was the lead guitarist in the Akron area band Glass Harp in the late 1960’s. If you want to hear an absolute killer of an electric guitar solo listen to Phil’s solo in the Glass Harp song Can You See Me. Outstanding electric player who transitioned to acoustic. He convinced me to get the Roland AC-33.
I just ordered the Roland AC40, and I have to say this is one of the best Demos Ive seen. All my respect, love and admiration to the gentle soul who is perhaps the best man to demonstrate this incredible product :)
Phil is a magnificent musician! What an awesome demo. Thanks a lot for showing the features of the looper. Phil also seems like a very kind person. God bless and may you continue to have great musical fortune!
Urban legend. Phil will tell you that himself, and quite frankly I think he's tired of hearing it. What he is is the most versatile guitarist out there as he can play more styles and genres of music than anyone else. Most people stick to one style (blues, rock, bluegrass, classical, etc.), Phil can jump in and play them all. Ask Phil if he thinks he is the best guitarist out there, and he will name a half dozen that he thinks are better. His humility and soft-spokenness is what sets him apart from all the prima dona guitar players.
rockpapaman: That is false you can ask Phil Keaggy himself. The story goes, his band recorded in Jimi's studio. Two weeks later Jimi was dead, Phil doesn't believe Jimi ever heard him play. Ok now it's time for me and Captive Thoughts to duke it out on "Who is Phil's #1 Fan"!!!
I came into this vid looking for a portable amp for my brother in law...I'm now seriously considering picking up one of these myself. Now, if I could just make it sound like this.... That man has some serious talent!
Incredible video; don't ever take it down. Not only did I enjoy it, I learned a lot. Also, please tell us what floor switches Phil is using, and give us a link to them. Thank you. (GREAT job, Phil. You really rocked it!!!)
This gentleman has had a well respected career at this stage he has a great balance in life great musician and a great person. I'm considering this amp, I've read it's 100% when AC powered but the sound quality is noticeably diffe ent on battery. Still checking reviews and will have to actually try one.. great review Phil
PK has been playing for many years and he has stuck to his guns and his own way of playing. It speaks for itself. If you watch early videos of Les Paul and Mary Ford you can see the same joy. Every lasting joy!
Flip. In. Heck. It's like having Michelangelo demonstrate a chisel for you or Bill Gates on tech support. I'm not sure who's more impressed, me or my neighbours! Thanks Roland and thanks Phil, you rock.
Amazing Phil! 1st time I saw you was around 1977 at Swing Auditorium in San Bernadino, CA. You're still amazing. Thanks for using that amazing talent for the Kingdom!
Inspiring playing Phil. We have a pair of AC-33 amps which we use outdoors a lot, for jamming & recording. Our thing is getting outdoors which is where we love playing the most.
Hi Phill,I'm "E"we met at The Dagsboro church,they had dinner concert that evening and you sing a catalog for a friend,how are you!!! I'm just doing fine in my homeland Puerto Rico.glaad to see you. steel playing around,God bless you.
I've been a fan of Phil Keaggy since 1978 when I first heard him playing guitar with 2nd Chapter of Acts on How the West was One. He inspired me then to be a better guitar player, and still does today. But more than that, he inspires me to be a humble Godly man. Thank you Phil for the many years of your inspiration.
Was very pleased to come across your video, I purchased one of these a couple of days ago, along with a Taylor 414ce L30. It has more than doubled my practice times moving up from a Fender amp and guitar. I'm in no way knocking Fender products because it wouldn't be fair since the guitar was just above an entry level, and the Taylor not so much Anyway, I think the key to becoming a better guitarist is the desire to want to practice more, and this new equipment has definitely achieved that. Enjoyed your video. God's speed. John C.
Phil and Paul are actually acquaintances. I came across pictures of the two of them jamming before a wedding. Type in Phil Keaggy talks about Paul McCartney on youtube.
@@MrTomanderson76 As I recall, Linda McCartney's sister is a big Keaggy fan and had him sing at her wedding. I believe that's the only time Paul and Phil met.
Paul was a big influence on Phil. Phil's a child of 60s and 70s rock and The Beatles' sound. He had a band called Glass Harp, they did a few albums and then he became "born again." He's done Christian music since then.
Did you know you could lose a finger on an old-fashioned water pump? I think Phil has been using loopers since they were invented. He really shows what can be done with that roland looper, and even uses an extra foot switch for the effects. It does get a bit more expensive to get fancy with this amp, but I think it will be worth it.
Skip the talk about the gear - and scroll to 4mins in - this guy is fantastic... goes to show - its not about gear, its about the talent behind the gear...
Yes all great pieces of work. It is just fun and enjoyable to sit and play like this. He was in Jax back in December and was great to see. Beyond Nature is my favorite. Riverton is a great song too.
Great demonstration, Phil Keaggy ! I was already thinking of getting one of them ..... so, i will ... I just wonder how it sounds when it comes to the nylon strings acoustic guitars. That's why I'll find a music shop to try it ... Thanks a lot anyway ! ... and you more than deserve that cup of tea ...
Hey Phil...me hopes you are on Roland's payroll...you have just sold this one on the AC-33...just wish I could make the guitar sound something close to what you can do! You are one hell of a muso! Thank you for sharing this...
Last met Phil at a guitar workshop in the Colorado mountains way back in 1984. A lot of fun to see him use two capos, a variety of strumming tools and octave pedal in addition to the amp and two Boss FS-6 pedals. I wonder if it is possible to switch on the fly from looping guitar to looping the vocals like he did here in two takes.
The capo near the nut is only for the 5th string. The first capo is for strings 1 to 4, and the sixth has nothing on it, but I think it has a lowered tuning.
Hatzz off to you Sir !! You are one of the best players ! Awesome composition and creativity sir ! what kind of music is this ? is it a country style? i would love to learn it ! hope some one guides !!! once again mind blowing sir ! and this is from the bottom of my heart.
Not To Use The Lords Name In Vain But....Jesus Christ....This Man Is Blessed.....Born For It....Wow....And Absolutely Wow Again....Superb Demo And Superb Playing And Singing.
Absolutely astonishing: jaw not only hit ground but continued on to Earth's core - f*ckin' wonderful: reminded me why I play, inspired me in so many ways - love the humour too. Thank you Phil!
Doug, your Samson C01 is a condenser and needs to have a 48volt current to feed it's capsule (this is commonly called Phantom Power) the AC33 does not have Phantom Power. Get a dynamic mic like a sure SM57 or great alternative is the Prodipe TT1. About £37.00.

Mr. Keaggy’s playing has done nothing but get better over the years. And, to add to that, his voice is still golden. You are blessed and a blessing.
I got the privilege of seeing him live back in 99, amazing live looper artist and amazing humble man! I got to meet him and have him a drawing I did of him and he loved it. Very humble, nice man. Been following his music for twenty seven years.
finally a good show case of how epic the pairing of this amp and a great player can be!
I’ve been following the brilliant Phil Keaggy since he was the lead guitarist in the Akron area band Glass Harp in the late 1960’s. If you want to hear an absolute killer of an electric guitar solo listen to Phil’s solo in the Glass Harp song Can You See Me. Outstanding electric player who transitioned to acoustic.

Wow! Love the amp! But what this gentleman did with it and his music is true art!
Holy $#*T! I came here for a product review and listened in humble awe of a master! Thank you Phil Keaggy!
You know when your listening to a master, they make something complicated look so effortless. This my friends is called elegance and grace.
I just ordered the Roland AC40, and I have to say this is one of the best Demos Ive seen. All my respect, love and admiration to the gentle soul who is perhaps the best man to demonstrate this incredible product :)
Phil, I met you at the Roller skating Rink in Ohio. You were playing Plynth water down the drain with the Glass Harp. I guess that dates both of us.
Wow, this is a beautiful human being. Thanks for sharing your passion with us, it's a pleasure.
He is Christian too, acc. to his witness.
@@karelcuchal9813 ...wow..a double positive whammy!!!
Phil is a magnificent musician! What an awesome demo. Thanks a lot for showing the features of the looper. Phil also seems like a very kind person. God bless and may you continue to have great musical fortune!
The amp is cool, but this guys playing is INCREDIBLE !
Somebody once asked Jimi Hendrix how it felt to be the best guitarist in the world. His response, " I don't know, ask Phil Keaggy."
Urban legend. Phil will tell you that himself, and quite frankly I think he's tired of hearing it. What he is is the most versatile guitarist out there as he can play more styles and genres of music than anyone else. Most people stick to one style (blues, rock, bluegrass, classical, etc.), Phil can jump in and play them all.

Caught him at the Fillmore East with Glass Harp ~1970ish -- was totally blown away. Seem to remember he was using some kind of sustainer?
Amazing guitar player and an all around nice guy.
Phil Keaggy is the best guitarist alive. Notice his middle finger is missing on his picking hand. I've been following him since 1970.
I saw Phil in Colorado several years back - still an absolutely amazing player. Thanks, Phil!!
I've never heard this man play before....I'm floored
Unbelievable, words fall short of his amazing gift. ❤
I came into this vid looking for a portable amp for my brother in law...I'm now seriously considering picking up one of these myself. Now, if I could just make it sound like this.... That man has some serious talent!
Phil is a beast...talk about sick skills! Been a fan for a long time.
Incredible video; don't ever take it down. Not only did I enjoy it, I learned a lot. Also, please tell us what floor switches Phil is using, and give us a link to them. Thank you. (GREAT job, Phil. You really rocked it!!!)
Phil Keaggy one of the best musician in the world, no matter what gear he use.
He has been playing since the 60's. Many albums too. If you go out and buy, "Beyond Nature" you won't be let down. Nor will this album ever get old.
if you ever get a chance go see him live he is amazing and very entertaining
Phil thanks for all the music and the joy you transfer while playing it.
This gentleman has had a well respected career at this stage he has a great balance in life great musician and a great person. I'm considering this amp, I've read it's 100% when AC powered but the sound quality is noticeably diffe ent on battery. Still checking reviews and will have to actually try one.. great review Phil
Phil Keaggy. Still the best guitar player on the planet.
Would love to hear him play w/ Warren Haynes though. Passion and tone.
Lucas lombardi is
Phil is the best i meet in Italy long time ago. I been in my house.God bless you brother.
Holy moly I am a super huge Phil Keaggy fan now. I like when he's playing mixolydian #4. Absolutely phenomenal
I came for the amp, i stayed for the performance! Mesmerizing!
Exactly. I never heard him before, although I believe I've heard his name in the past. Had no idea he is such a killer guitarist. Lucky us !!!
You and me both brother!!!!
PK has been playing for many years and he has stuck to his guns and his own way of playing. It speaks for itself. If you watch early videos of Les Paul and Mary Ford you can see the same joy. Every lasting joy!
...and I am just one of many ...also came for the amp, but now just want to hear him play more...!
Incredible! It would be nice if Roland could ask him to do this again, only next time, have a split screen showing what his feet are doing throughout!
Yes, and I would like to see how he has the footswitches set up.
Me, three. And I would like a link to those switches, too. :)
Bravo maestro. You've enlightened me. Great playing. Great show. Wonderful performance.
With one mic and a small amp he sounds like a million bucks. Crazy talent.
What a musician. Class act.
incredible technic n musicality as well as sense of rythm n performance // a trully kickass dude
Phil is nothing short of inspiring.
man he is melting faces in the most gentle of ways. awesome!
Flip. In. Heck. It's like having Michelangelo demonstrate a chisel for you or Bill Gates on tech support.
I'm not sure who's more impressed, me or my neighbours!
Thanks Roland and thanks Phil, you rock.

Great feeling when hearing you play!!!! Fantastic playing!!!

Beautiful guitar! And playing!
Fan - ffing - tastic Phil - thank you so much!!!
Glass Hat (Phil) was miles and miles ahead of its time. :) Great to see him.
You mean Glass Harp
@@angelinaeasley9471 absolutely! Glass Hat was a club in Houston I used to play! LOL Senior mind glitch!

Enjoyed your video.
God's speed.

I wrote my last comment as this video was playing, then right at the end Phil sang and blimey if he don't sound just like Paul McCartney !
Yes, I saw this, too. It must be a greatness-gene thingy...
Phil and Paul are actually acquaintances. I came across pictures of the two of them jamming before a wedding. Type in Phil Keaggy talks about Paul McCartney on youtube.

oh Wow that is so awesome, loved Phil Keaggy playing on this amp
Brilliant as always Phil!!!
OMG you made that am sound so beautiful !! I am so looking forward to getting one .. Thank you
Thnx for professional demo.
Did you know you could lose a finger on an old-fashioned water pump? I think Phil has been using loopers since they were invented. He really shows what can be done with that roland looper, and even uses an extra foot switch for the effects. It does get a bit more expensive to get fancy with this amp, but I think it will be worth it.
great performance and use of the amp Phil :) thanks!
Wow. The loop is really cool.
Great playing as well..
Well.... you don't get any better than that for promoting sales !!
Good move Roland, sending one to this guy :0)
Totally inspiring !
Great demo Phil. Serious McCartney vibe. A very talented musician right there, eell done Phil
Outrageous!
Nothing puts a smile on a musician's face like hearing great music. Let the big goofy grins commence. :-)
What a monster talent this guy is, damn!
Nice crisp playing Phil, just come across this product, sounds great! Regards-John.
I just added this to my "Guitar Gods" folder.
Skip the talk about the gear - and scroll to 4mins in - this guy is fantastic... goes to show - its not about gear, its about the talent behind the gear...
Great amp, INCREDIBLE playing!
Yes all great pieces of work. It is just fun and enjoyable to sit and play like this. He was in Jax back in December and was great to see. Beyond Nature is my favorite. Riverton is a great song too.
Excellent performance.
At last! A review that lets us hear the mic channel instead of concentrating on the guitar, because that’s what most buskers want an amp for.
Phil Keaggy = simply none better: annointed by God Almighty to be a Saint of the six string.
Mr White, you’re an artist!!
Great demonstration, Phil Keaggy ! I was already thinking of getting one of them ..... so, i will ... I just wonder how it sounds when it comes to the nylon strings acoustic guitars. That's why I'll find a music shop to try it ... Thanks a lot anyway ! ... and you more than deserve that cup of tea ...
I just ordered this on Friday and might get it tomorrow. Can't wait. Now if I just had some talent to do it justice.
Ahhh, you are amazing! Absolutely fantastic!
Hey Phil...me hopes you are on Roland's payroll...you have just sold this one on the AC-33...just wish I could make the guitar sound something close to what you can do! You are one hell of a muso! Thank you for sharing this...
Beautiful indeed !
I'm speechless! I feel guilty watching this without buying a ticket.
My Gosh, Phil, you absolutely ROCK!!
Like a kid in a Candy store! Love the amp and performance. Thx :-)
Yes, a master of tech and guitar thought, has always been. All you tech co's, send him your stuff, he will master it!
this guy is amazing. wonder what he'd do with 2 amps.
GREAT as per your usual Phil
Last met Phil at a guitar workshop in the Colorado mountains way back in 1984. A lot of fun to see him use two capos, a variety of strumming tools and octave pedal in addition to the amp and two Boss FS-6 pedals. I wonder if it is possible to switch on the fly from looping guitar to looping the vocals like he did here in two takes.
Great amp, great performance...sounds Celtic!
Amazing guitar playing!
SOLD! To the man with drool around his mouth.
The capo near the nut is only for the 5th string. The first capo is for strings 1 to 4, and the sixth has nothing on it, but I think it has a lowered tuning.
very nice demo, thanks
The Master of musician God bless you

Ive Bought Two of them with The Boss FS6 and Stereo Cables to run the Looper on The AC33, God Bless
Will I sound like this if I buy an AC-33?
Doug, your Samson C01 is a condenser and needs to have a 48volt current to feed it's capsule (this is commonly called Phantom Power) the AC33 does not have Phantom Power. Get a dynamic mic like a sure SM57 or great alternative is the Prodipe TT1. About £37.00.
Great video, brilliant musician, thx so much!! :)
excellent!! Phil you have charged my batteries !
Came for the demo, stayed for the greek captains hat and the great demo of course.
Phil, you play like a god, wow!
He plays with a LR Baggs pickup system which has both a bridge and a pizo mic pickup
Wow you are an awesome player my friend.
