now we know why phil is always smiling and acting like a complete maniac,there is a stunning super model holding Que cards and making faces at him and im sure she is there in every single fretted americana video

[@joannebeauchamp1169]

Phil did a great job reviewing this Moderne…His off-the-wall sense of humor really brightens things up, too! He’s the best! 💥👍🏿💥👍🏿

[@Diddi150]

Best Episode. I am rewatching this in 2018.

[@bentackett6299]

2019 😎

[@notarealperson87]

im watching this during a lightning storm, and phil has never been more apt

[@PhilFeedback]

Great video! I’ve got one of the 1982 reissue Gibson Moderne’ Korina with the Gumby head stock

[@discomatador3D]

Coolest guitar I have ever seen! From the 50's design "kicks ass" Unbelievable! Mucho Thanks for this!

[@digitalfritts]

this is the mullet of guitars.... I want one!

[@chrishorton615]

They're rare. Probably worth some dough.

[@downhome7500]

Phil, you are THE guy to look up to these days especially for aspiring Canadian artists.

[@hwmbo727]

Nice to stumble upon this video. I have re-issue korina Moderne serial # B003. Now I have an idea when mine was made. Although I'm from Toronto, like Phil, I bought the guitar at Sam Ash Music in NYC on Sep 4, 1984, for U$400. Someone else had bought and returned it -- maybe they didn't like it, who knows. I had no idea it would become so sought-after. I just thought it was so cool, and still do.

[@xDooksx]

Hugely under-rated guitar from Gibson

[@Jjosh1358]

I LOVE that gibson crunch!

[@johndurham6021]

Phil... I love you man! Thanks for all the great vids, Im an avid follower. 30 mill views is an amazing marketing feat. Dude, you are awesome. This may be my first youtube comment ever, but you deserve it after all the fun I have had checking out your vids, and everything I have learned about the various models from you. Much love man. You would make a father proud! At least if he loved strats!!

[@jonasdawn2959]

Thanks for bringing back my will to play guitar!

[@Z0S0The0utrider69]

This might be my favorite video in regards to phils playing! Phil kills it every time but there is something extra fiery in this vid!

[@northlight1908]

Phil, keep doing what you do. Your playing is great and so is your commentary. You're one entertaining guy!

[@localcrew]

Neck pickup: Insane. Cue card chick: Smokin' hot. Guitar licks: Hell yeah. Another great vid.

[@NapoleanXV]

The cue card girl can work my flip stick any day of the week. Made my weekend! Keep on kickin' ass phil!

[@loris7127]

Amazing guitar and amazing Phil X.

[@jobsgarage]

Ever since the sound quality of these videos has been upgraded, I've taken the habit of running them through my home PA system and jam with Phil on my Marshall. Thumbs up if you do too!

[@TheDoctorMorgan]

Awesome guitar, first time i've heard one. Sweet!

[@justingalynsky7744]

[@jeffkay2011]

Fantastic tones and playage!

[@Foxonian]

Had the Epiphone version of this guitar that they made in the late 80's. Very high quality guitar.

[@FordBurden]

Awesome harmonic sequence!

[@zhanknight]

That thing is awesome.

[@GravityBoy72]

Cue card girl. Phil's videos get better and better.

[@MrGougi]

Congrats, Dustin !

[@GrapeApeAH]

Phil X, JAMMIN as ALWAYS, don't let the ones who don't know what good sound deter you from the new set up, freaking sounds great.

[@BejitaConnor]

[@PrawdaTV]

[@thehandseesall]

Mr x, I gotta give it to you man you should definitely be on a top 100 all time greatest guitarist list....you got mad skills!

[@Chaos218]

[@ShoreStudios]

[@NachoEscamilla]

Phil, that harmonic thingy, any place to find that technique online? Sounds great. Dig your stuff.

[@jpcotrim03]

gotta hear those new drills songs

[@ScottishScott2024]

That Moderne is beautiful

[@mehdibenameur96]

Best tone i've ever heard ...

[@Squazzoo68]

C'mon Phil, can't believe you let that guy get to you. You're the best!

[@DoubleVisionandco]

The neck pickup is getting that meat puppets "Back Water" sound.And it sounds incredible.

[@BADMANSGUITAR]

been waiting all week for this haha

[@ViniciusMaffei]

HOLY SHIT, WHAT WAS THAT? 6:59 THIS HARMONICS LICK SOUNDED AMAAAAAAAZING!

[@riansettles2506]

great guitars.i bought one many many years ago for quite a nice price.well it was expensive for me at the time.but these things sound unbelievable.and are actually quite comfortable

[@ChristopherGwinn]

They have a very cool collection of high end recording gear - all the amazing stuff used to make your favorite albums. Some of it is worth more than any guitar Phil is showcasing.

[@SindreThePunk]

that git does sound effin amazing

[@stitch4angel]

Phil X is the man.

[@mattshingz]

GONNA SEE THIS BEAST IN SINGAPORE LATER!!

[@BESTKnopflerLIVE]

you're great!

[@JIMJAMSC]

I own 2 Heritage Modernes and can add my 2c. They are light,well balanced with a nice playing neck. They have a thicker ,full tone,textured darker than LPs. Stringing it takes longer, it stays in tune ok but not rock solid. A little lube on the trees and care to take out all the slack when stringing helps. If you want a much less expensive alternative get the Epiphone Moderne. Its also Korina and very simular in every way. The stock PUs suck but with Burstbuckers, Rocks harder at 1/5 the price.

[@brianlastname3808]

Very cool video. Great playing and I'd love to have a Moderne.

[@merqury5]

OMG she it HOOOOOT! And Im not only talking about the neck mic!

[@6672rock]

If the rumors are true that some of the original '58 Moderne axes saw the light of day and are out there somewhere, they must be worth a fortune!

[@zhiracs]

Millions.

[@erikviking]

Thats a dope guitar! Rock on Phil X, u dah boss mahn!

[@Fredrockroll]

That's the best neck pickup i have ever heard

[@kevinbesler]

Nice. Phil you lucky rocker.

[@danalmas6600]

Hey Phil, your fellow Canadian again from Windsor, love the little scat you did @ 6:38

[@blkjakk]

I agree. That neck pickup is smooooooooove.

[@rttrtt8965]

Yep the neck pickup is great

[@dewey1202]

Hey Phil, what string gauge and pick size do you use? Don't think I've seen a video of yours where you say what you use. Big fan, btw! :)

[@RiloRox]

dude that ac 30 has so much to offer than just clean...

[@robertlucky]

Awesome!

[@KenMickey]

New meaning for talk too the hand. Sweet sounding wacky collectors dream

[@CurlsNGoggles]

Does frettedamericana have a Gibson RD Artist? Would love to see Phil review that one!

[@TheAnarchy4life]

I missed you man!

[@Punkundead17]

4:40 is definitely my favourite lick he's played in awhile. looking forward to that new record

[@ThePopsheep]

Amazing neck pickup...

[@ChrsGuit]

Phil X WITH THE WIN. Awesome job Phil... I always look forward to your videos. Killer sounds and killer playing. Some people just want to hate on a guy having fun and playing the guitar... Non-players just don't get it...

[@nicolasleblond279]

Those Tim Shaw's are the benchmark !!!!!

[@ChristopherGwinn]

Am I nerd for drooling over the gear in the racks behind Phil rather than the Moderne?

[@CCRockit]

Way to go, Dusty!

[@WoodesosGuitarMods]

Serious question: Phil, you say you're from Canada, this is all starting to make sense. BC by any chance? Also, just how much do you smoke before you film? Love these videos, you're hilarious and top it off by being an awesome guitarist!

[@1337Atian]

dude.. awsome stuff you got there... thats a nice gibbi ;P

[@pugzig4me]

awesome guitar and loved it through the evil robot.....you're playing incredible

[@downhome7500]

I'm still waiting patiently for the day that you play Halifax, Nova Scotia.

[@srfBoris157]

This guy is a hero; it's like Paul Gilbert drank too much coffee before doing a video.

[@austin7956]

"this is my last phil x video, then im going to bed...ooooh look! '55 les paul!"

[@ohml1188]

46 years young... Gotta love this man :) Keep it rockin'!!!

[@sbvikings30]

congrats!

[@parlancex]

That guitar sounds quite rather good.

[@stepitupandgo67]

damn phil is a maniac and great shreds!!!

[@MrErnieman7]

I can't believe it. Flippin Out and a Moderne! I must be in Philven. Or maybe Phell.

[@TheFuriousShovel]

that sounds rly good

[@ThatsBadTV]

holy crap that sounds amazing :O.. I've never been a guy for a Flying V Styled body, but I'd take one of these!

[@rustvictory2232]

Hey Phil when are we gonna get a new Drills cd?

[@PostCrusifixion]

HELL YAEAH!!

[@clivedavies3]

I dont know if its my computer set up but the studio sound sounds as if it well clipped and the original sound in frettedamerica's sale room was only clipped by trhe camera mike and was a better live venue. regards Clive

[@MrNilsiboy94]

When is the new album coming out and where can I buy it ? I can't find anything on Amazon or any other website.

[@Witty9171]

Awesome Git-R

[@zacpetty123]

That neck pickup! :D

[@SicknesssDwellls]

Phil X's 'flippin out' :)

[@Kron0s4284]

goddam Phil shreds

[@adrianmarsglam]

Wow, Phil, is that Y&T at 9:34 ? Sounds like Dirty girl from Earthshaker, 1981. Cool and entertaining as always! Rock on!

[@jaimexdxd]

When is the new Drills' album coming? I know the intro is from it, and it sounds awesome!

[@omikl]

I reckon that it might be the lack of wood that makes the neck picup sound like that. My old Ibanez Futura (Moderne copy) that I've had since '78 sounds pretty similar.
