- "This guitar is pure indulgence, I just wanted to have it".
- Owns 80 guitars.
He repetatively says so many positive adjectives about each guitar, that it delivers the message , that he does not know what to say about each one and just randomly reads these words from "top 10 positive adjectives list" . So main takeway is : If you have too many guitars , you will have no time to play all of them and you will barely remember from where each one came from.
I think if Phil didn't have the channel he'd be selling off at least half of his collection. When you're recording, in a band and whatnot you tend to accept having more guitars haha !

@@anadicharandas6551 No, I
He was on such a roll here, id thought he would pick up just some random stuff other than guitar equipment. "This is my dog, he weighs 7.8 lbs......"
I honestly would love a dog review
Bahaahaha amazing.
lolol
I can throw a Thinline Telecaster on and then a big heavy Les Paul and hanging from the strap it's not a big difference in feeling. Not something I would notice bothering me even over an hour or more. There is a massive difference in weight between those guitars. Tele is a little over 7lbs and the Les Paul is around 11lbs.
Might be because I'm a pretty big guy, 295lbs 6'4", so a few extra lbs on a guitar isn't really noticeable enough to even think about. It's not something I've ever given a thought about when shopping for guitars for sure.
I've got enough trouble making a decision when shopping for a guitar, I'm glad weight isn't something extra for me to think about lol.
all stock, except the collar
should've named it the Less Paul instead of the Les Paul Lite
There is a Les Paul less plus
But surely that extra 'S' would add significantly to the weight !!!
That’s what they called it in 2015.
Hahahahaha.
10/10
Phil quickly rushes through his guitar collection and it still takes 27m 52s 😂😂😂😂
He plays 287 hours a day.
LOL, IKR
😁😆🤣😂🙃
Phil helps us all justify our addiction to collecting guitars....
I had 10+ guitars and didn't play many of them so I had a clear out and sold a load of them. Problem is, I spent ALL of the money made on new guitars. Oops. Anyway, great to see this collection. Something to aspire to!
story of my life
@@lgx2410 make that: Story of OUR lives!
😁😆😅🤣😁
Great collection of guitars !! I love your statement "I'd buy another guitar for wall art before I'd buy another painting !" I've said the same thing !! Great video , thanks !!
I use to have an all-white Danelectro, similar to the one in the video and it was stolen from my room while I was in the Army stationed in Germany. All I have left of that guitar is the memories and one picture. ...(Sigh) I miss it.
That floral jam is a beautiful guitar
I'm always happy to see Parker guitars, I have a gold 1999 Fly Deluxe and absolutely love it. It's been my main guitar for 5 or 6 years now.
Thanks Phil for helping me "Know YOUR gear"... that was a blast ....
Sweetwater please pay this man to do an extended multi hour director's cut
I'm guilty of owning to many , in my defense I've been adding and subtracting since 1975 and 1/4 of my collection cost under $50 even one for $15. Then I have a bunch under $130. I do have very few from $1200 -$3500 and they don't sound better than some of my cheapos they just play easier and relieve so much hand pain (quality build). Just sharing.
Philip be flexing!!! Awesome collection for a awesome dude that appreciates and respects every instrument!
Thanks for sharing Phil. Really enjoyed seeing all your guitars!
I can appreciate the joy of having a huge collection, and no one asked me, but I would consolidate big time, while upgrading at the same time. Get one great SSS vintage style strat, one great HH or HSS strat, keep the Gibson Les Paul R9 get rid of the others. One t style, one great SG. One bass, one hollow PRS and one solid. One shredder Ibanez. You get the idea. Bank a few grand and have a manageable collection that you will play and keep up with string changes. There are only so many hours in the day. I have 6 and it is difficult to play them all enough.
I actually agree. If i were super wealthy I’d have a very large open music room with high ceilings, guitars on one wall and a collection of great amps. I might even find some local tech to come and change the strings on all of them once a month and check for truss rod adjustments. That said, I would only own so many guitars that I could still feel connected to all of them. That number for me is probably 15 max with the least favorite couple of guitars getting switched out every so often.
I used to have 30+ guitars and agree 100% with you. I feel guilty that guitars SHOULD be played and I won't play it so I reduced reduced reduced keepin it around 10. Might seem excessive still, but I am a diehard gearhead lol. Way better to trade in a guitar you barely play for something you will!
Stoked to see this finally!
Love this video! Nice to hear A lil story about all of them
Thanks for showing your incredible collection. One question, though. Wouldn't your American Standard Strat with the dent in the neck be a good candidate for a dent repair video? It's the technique where your place a wet towel on the dent then apply heat with a clothes iron tip or soldering gun to steam in moisture to make it swell and lift the dent out. Wouldn't this be possible because it's a basic satin finish on the neck and not painted?
That was really cool of Solar guitars to weigh it and send one out to you for the channel. Kudos to Solar!
I really like that you point out the weight of the guitars. Sometimes, I feel like I'm the only one who cares and feels like that should be a basic spec that sellers and retailers should specify. To me, it's a spec that matters to know as much as finish, body wood, fretboard radius, etc.
You have a remarkable collection of fine guitars and basses and different styles that can inspire you to play something different when you want to.
That Framus is mindblowing. Wow.
Framus guitars are some of the best on the planet!
My three favourites where the Gibson SG, Fender pro Stratocaster and Ibanez AZ
I only own 3 guitars. The last one I got is a Fender Lead 2. It weighs exactly 6 and 1/2 lbs. Now I'm obsessed with lightweight guitars! The lack of weight with all the body contours...maximum comfort! I'm interested in a Mira now...I didn't know they were that ridiculously light.
Mira!
I hope to have that kind of collection someday I'm currently at five guitars i have a drum set slowly but surely trying to build a studio in my room All great studios weren't built in a day The best is yet to come
16:01 EVH Stripe, I teared up a when you said he “touched so many of us”.
18:00 - Fender American Standard Strats in the 2015ish range are THE absolute BEST Strat for the $$ you can find! I had a 2014 Shawbucker model 10 years ago, sold it, went through many different Strats (some being much more expensive) and finally came back around to a 2015 Shawbucker. That one is THE keeper.
From a fellow "GAS" musician (or guitar geek) Cool video and a sweet collection!! Thanks for sharing.
I love the quick cuts, its like skipping through items in a video game with the main character explaining what it is and does lol
Love seeing these and hearing the enthusiasm for each one.
Now I understand why you know so much about guitars, thank you for sharing and caring
Maybe I need to get some of mine out of their cases. I tend to play what's out and handy and forget the more expensive ones hidden in cases. Good reminder--play them all. You Rock Groovy One!
I got a Hercules guitar stand that claims it can hold 10 guitars (I currently have 5 electric guitars and 2 basses on mine), it's great, I can see all my guitars, and it's so easy to grab one and play it.
Wow, you have more guitars than anyone on the planet. God Bless, you are Super inspiration, thanks
I agree with your comment about the Taylor T5. I bought mine after a serious attack of GAS. It took years to grow on me, I came to terms with it when I realized it is not an acoustic guitar, it is a great electric with some acoustic properties. It is its own thing.
I have 32 guitars and I play them all .... five more than others and three alot but I play them all..... and I love them ! 🎸🤟🍻
Killer collection Phillip! I have a fairly large collection of guitars myself we actually have very similar taste in instruments. I can tell just from what I see in your collection that you have been doing this a long time and are very thoughtful on witch guitars you keep in your collection. I've owned hundreds of guitars and really love the 80's shredder stuff but the one guitar I've always wanted but never got around to getting is the Alvarez Dana Scoop, seeing yours inspired me to finally try and track one down. Thanks for sharing and I really dig your channel!
I’m excited for this!
The first one, the Fender with rosewood neck, The Gibson Lite, The Parker!!! and the Magnificent 7 Tele were my favorites.
That Warwick bass @ 24:31 is incredible. What a beautiful piece of art. And I don't even play bass lol
Wow!! Lots of guitars there. Nice to see them all. 🤟🏼🎸
Alot of really nice guitars Phil
lol the intro sounded more like: "they made me do it" lol. Thanks for the content Phil!
Hi Phillip, I can't thank you enough for your video on the EART Tele. I don't want to put it down! ;-)) Shalom/gw
Cool collection. . I only have 10 guitars but I love them just as much.
Hey Phillip, I'd like to thank you for making me feel OK for having a similar number of guitars. At times, I've struggled with owning so many guitars, feeling like I must need therapy. Ha. I've just loved everything about guitars from the time I was around 12 years old (and I'm now 64) They're in constant rotation so I tell myself it's "OK". I'll have to start selling them off someday out of a fear of my wife dumping the whole collection after my death for some ridiculous give-away price. (like a gym membership and three pairs of new shoes)
Jajaja hahaha hehehe that's funny. Yet @ 61 yrs of age and over 100 guitars I find myself in exactly that same scenario. I own lots of 70's foreign cheapos. They all bring unique tones. I'd like to donate the collection to a traveling museum and kids come check them out maybe have the local players jam on a few tunes.
I’m in the same boat, not 350, but approaching 70. I actually had to make a spread sheet with the make, model, serial number and whether they have a case or the original box.
It’s a blessing and a curse 😂. I recently moved to a new house. What a pain in the ass it was to move all the guitars, amps, etc!
I tell myself, okay, that’s enough and then two days later ups shows up 😂
Just got this guy with an actual guitar collection
.me. with my
Brendon small signature model's.
Thunderhorse, Ghost horse, Snow Falcon oh and my classic 58 goth Explorer
Sounds like a good collection to me!
Nice collection
You have a good style, all sound great 👍🏼
so many guitars we've rarely seen. Beautiful collection of guitars, even the Suhr!
“Even” the Suhr? Do you not like em? I think they’re very well made knock offs but, what never understood was, for that price tag, why wouldn’t you just buy the real thing?
@@shaneb1313 nah, Ive never been in ones presence so have no perspective. It was a statement in jest as Phil was a little dismissive of its percieved greatness throughout the video when discussing similar guitars.
The Parker, Vader and Satch - all on the wish list
Yep, for all people selling on Reverb, you'll get better responses and sales if you list the guitar's weight :)
If it’s light(ish)..
Thanks for showing off these amazing axes! I really enjoyed what you said about playing the guitars, and not just letting them sit on the wall. I am guilty of not playing my guitars, as often as I should.
Very much enjoyed the small little story's behind all of these guitars/basses! \m/
Excellent tour. The only guitar missing is one more guitar. Rinse and repeat!
I can personally recommend Sweetwater for all needs musical, ask for Pat. Excellent knowledge and unequaled top shelf customer service..
Soon but im still growing both the channel and my collection lol awesome collection Phil! 🙌🏻🎸
I pre-ordered a Gibson Les Paul Custom ‘68 reissue on Guitar Center. Arrival date says next week, so I’m giving them a week! It will likely be my heaviest guitar, but man do they sound ever so sweet. 😎
I have 11 guitars, and I use all of them. All are setup differently/different tunings/pickups/7&8 string/couch guitar etc.
Plus they look good and I enjoy investing in guitars.
Solid rosewood necks are incredible
Oh crap, here we go! Exciting!
Man the best thing I ever did was pick 2 out of my fifteen and sold the rest. It literally makes me tired seeing that wall of guitars....dusting. strings changes.....God forbid you have to put them in cases and if you do.....I am certain you will forget one or 5. I like picking up a guitar to play without choosing. I go back and forth as I change strings. I have had the two for over 30 years.....true family. That's the reason I don't have one.
Love the channel Phil.
I love the bright orange Ibanez RG550!
Great collection, but I hate headless guitars I will never have one.
Rip strandberg
I put Fralin blues pickups in my Tele too.
My oldest guitar is a 1987 Kramer Beretta. It’s my first guitar
Watching guitars makes me happy. Happy being a weirdo.
Purple Peavy and Framus can be upgraded with really great Deusenberg / Goldo / Guyker / GuitarFetish tremolo without any drilling or alignment issues which replaces the stoptail.
Awesome video Philip, great content. It’s really awesome to see all of your guitar collection in its glory!
I love that first Taylor acoustic, very different
Phillip, growing up I always thought the heavy weight of a Les Paul was one of the contributing factors to its amazing tone and sustain. Is that a myth? I’d love a lighter weight Les Paul but worry I’d be sacrificing something. I’d love to hear from your experience. Thanks and subscribed!
Just being honest I prefer the sound of the heavier Les Paul because the weight relived ones are chambered (basically meaning they're a semi hollow body guitar). That being said removing the wood although it makes it lighter and more comfortable to play it affects the tone because of the removal of the wood.
Heavier guitars generally have a really great resonance not necessarily sustain. Semi hollows have a great presence but heavier guitars are great for tone
@@khgear7160 I bought a 2021 LP Standard 60's Burbon Burst. 9lb-11oz (9.6lbs). The resonance is amazing!
@@arlo12345678910 it is not a les paul it is a hollow body pos
My PRS weighs about 6.4 lbs and easily blows away my 8.8 lb LP on sustain and tone. I almost never touch my LP anymore because of how much it weighs vs my other guitars that are much lighter and sound great. That said, I’m clearly in the “heavier is not better” camp.
I am very surprised that I didn’t see a schecter, but none the less, very nice collection phil.
Beautiful collection Phil. I was scared that my wife would see this I realized we're neck and neck. Wife and I are moving (not far from Austin), but what made us laugh is when I starting packing gear, I was like "whoa", when will the guitar straps stop having babies!
I have so many toys on my list, I don't know what's next. Gotta say that my three EBMMs have impeccable. Newest (yr ago) is my G&L ASAT CLASSIC Fullerton Dlx (adds belly carve). Ugh, love it! Light too!
For a guitar youtuber i expect lots of guitars thank you for sharing
Philip, faithful fumble fingered follower here. So I have an idea... supercharge a Glarry 170 with the following, better pots, your favorite trem, locking tuners, a better nut, aftermarket splitable humbucker bridge, better single coil middle possibly a bridge or hot middle, and a P-90 neck pickup with better strings... I think this "Franken RG" might be a truly interesting tonal pallet with the options... especially 2 & 4. Test it on your software just to get a mad scientist giggle before building it. But this might be a crazy good way to change the paradigms of pickup mixes on "desert island": guitars. I am also looking into something like that with a Glarry GST and mulling humbucker/P-90 (or just P-90 Bare Knuckles). I also asked Daniel Braun this same thing and was wondering what you think about it.
Kind of awesome, my analysis: you like strat style with two humbuckers, and are strangely acoustic deficient🙂🎸. Much thanks
Phil, I really love your channel.I'll admit some serious envy on the part of your collection. I don't know how old you are, but I started playing in the late 70's when I was in Jr. High school. I was around 14 yrs old. But I always had to rent guitars back then. When I finally bought my first guitar, a bass, I had been saving up money by working on a farm in between my sophomore and jr. year in High school. I bought a new Rickenbacker 4001 and a Peavy Mark IV bass head with 2 10' and on 15' speakers. I only paid $650 for the bass, and wish so bad I would have kept it because now a good condition one is worth around $5k - $7k. It was a top end version with Grover tuners, checkerboard binding, and everything. I sold it to help pay for my oldest son's birth, but didn't get much for it.
Anyway, I now have 5 guitars and 1 bass (a highly modified Squire Jazz bass.) I've got at least three or four basses on my list, and countless guitars. But I also have to knock off a few priorities before I even attempt the quantity you have. I love EVH brand guitars. I really wish they would start building basses like Wolf was playing when he was touring with his dad. Of the three EVH guitars I have, two have discontinued finishes. I barley got one of the last royal blue with maple fingerboard guitars. I do have an EVH Frankie that I got at the 2020 price; which is at least $200 cheaper than the current price.
I don't know if you've done an amp version of this video, but I would like to see what amps you keep around. I recently purchased an EVH 5150III LBX-S and I absolutely love it. It's the only guitar tube amp I've ever owned. I've always just had small solid state combo amps simply because I could not justify the expensive tube amps. I've been raising 5 kids and that's a pretty tough job. Although those new EVH ionic amps are more reasonably priced. With my bass amps, I've just used a pre-amp, like a Sansamp RPM or the Sansamp Geddy Lee 2112 powered by a GK 700 watt head.
Sorry for blabbing on, but like I said, I really love your channel. I've watched it a lot more than I've commented. I hope to be around 20 guitars by the end of 2022. I want to get most of my must-haves out of the way by then. Have a good one and Rock-on!!!
I have a black Parker fly.
Best guitar in the lot ever!
Phil used to own a guitar shop, now lives in a guitar themed house ! Nice varied collection
I have about a dozen guitars, of course I have some LPs that I love and Teles and Strats. but there are two in particular that I wanted to mention. and they are my Gretsch G5122DC electromatic all bone stock right down the open tuning machines. it a guitar that if I had sell all my body parts I would keep my arms so I could play it it a fantastic guitar. and then the most unique guitar that I have, it's a mid eighties MIJ Jackson Charvel Charvette. it has a reverse headstock with Charvel logoed tuning machines. maple neck with rosewood fretboard with the truss rod adjustment at the headstock. with a Charvel logoed EMG style single coil at the neck. and a Charvel logoed EMG style humbucker at bridge. with an actual Floyd Rose (not licensed) with big brass block. one volume, one tone, stock knobs and a three position switch. your going think I'm crazy when I tell you the weight of this guitar. but there's a very important reason why I keep it and enjoy playing it. besides the fact that it has a fantastic feeling neck. it's my guitar that I use to prove that wood makes a difference in the tone of a guitar. and this is fact that weighs almost twelve pounds. I can grab it and compare it to any other guitar with similar specs. or not. and because the wood is so dense that it definitely has a different tone to it. so it's a great guitar to sit down a and play. but I wouldn't want to have stand and play it for long periods of time. but it's worth keeping because it proves that wood makes a difference in the tone of a guitar.
Ahhhh yes love the show as always Phil! Love to finally see the collection!
Love the Gretch guitar! I bought my first Gretch a few months ago. I have been adding to my collection, especially the last 6 months. I will not have anywhere close to yours. Awesome!
I would love to see an updated version of this
You are a man, rich in guitars!
That Warwick bass...ooof is that BEAUTIFUL! Your dead on the $ with "dream bass" I REALLY want the Stuart Zender model....don't have the $ though lol.
I WON the Contest (that I invented in my head... and no other contestants) and get my pick/s of the T5, the JS, the JEM, Framus, the Somiun, the Solar, the Gretch 130th, and the PF..., when do you ship them?... gimmie! Considering all of my dozens of upgraded guitars are Black (some have Red, Gold, Chrome contrasts), I guess I'd pick the JS or JEM. *lol* Seriously, I'd like to suggest you try something: With the T5 or the Gretch, put a fluid Audio "Strum-Buddy" suction cupped to the base of the center-line of guitar back (probably near output jack) fully locked onto the flat surface. The 5 w output is fixed and your volume is controlled by the Guitar pot, (get the Blackface not the chrome StrumBuddy). It's easier to use than the magnetic Tonewood Amp or the dangling Spark mini. just turn on reverb and delay, but opt out of the OD and ENJOY!
The other day I put every single new guitar and amp I want into a cart on sweetwater. By the end I had over 200 guitars, and about 50-60 different amps and dozens of cabs. Came out to around 1.3 million. What’s funny is if I actually bought all those guitars and amps, I wouldn’t have enough room on my walls to display them, much less enough room to store all the hard shell cases. I just really want a custom shop dual humbucker tele thinline 72 without a f hole. Heavy relic burst. Played through a hand wired Marshall plexi stack and slo100 with a pedalboard filled with all the highest end origin effects, all the uafx, hand wired tube screamer, source audio equalizer, the fulltone tube tape echo, the trex tape delay, the dr. Z reverb tank, every moog and Erica synth pedal available, and then a rack with a h9000, their reverb unit, fulltone chorus, stereo decimator prorack, and a bunch of radial stuff to make it all work. Is that too much to ask for?
Very nice collection, Phil. You seem to have imposed a weight limit of 8 lbs. Very sensible!
If I'm not mistaken it was only the LP that crashed through that ceiling.
Oh, and yes weight matters significantly. I simply prefer lighter guitars.
Very nice collection! Thank You for sharing Phillip.
the pink/purp crackle is awesome
I was surprised to not see 1Jackson guitar in your collection.
the Alvaraz makes more than up for it though ;)
I am not. They have cool history and many popular guitarists use(d) them but their QC sux...
@@johnpacino4491 I have to disagree with you I own some Jackson guitars and their quality control is excellent and I've never had any issues with them in the electronics department or the pickups or anything or any of the hardware so I don't know where you're getting that from
@@RollerCoasterFenatic then I would say you are not that much of a bad luck 😁 Even Phil said Jacksons are a hit or miss nowadays...
And me!!! Playing all my made in Korea, Chinese and Indonesia guitar's 😅😅🇦🇺👍👍..Great guitar's mate
Very impressive collection Phillip! My favorites were the Suhr, the EVH, and the LP custom. I love your presentations, if it wasn't for you I never would have known about Harley Benton, I recently purchased a DC junior with a Roswell P90 in it. I never had a P90 before and I just love playing that guitar and that fire breathing pickup! Best off, it only cost me like $260.00 shipped to my house. Thanks again Phil and it always fun watching you play, you do kick ass, but you never disappoint with your selection of amps and pedals too!
Man, that’s guitar heaven right there. I have 2 guitars. A 2005 fender deluxe strat, and a Taylor gs mini. Thinking about selling the Taylor and picking up a Martin, but they are so darn expensive! The one I’m looking at is the Martin d10-e and that sets me back 1000 bucks if I would go for it. So far I just cant justify the purchase since I feel like as an intermediate player, I won’t get my money’s worth out of it. Especially not since I already own the strat.
I too like that sweetwater weighs each one and you choose the one you want. I bought my Brad paisley Tele thru them. However Price wise compared to Musicians friend they are higher priced and i was disappointed with "their" so called set up. I did the set up myself after having it at the house and it is a killer now. love the V neck, I have a lot of V neck guitars. it appeared to be about 50 guitars or so that you showed us very nice.. I only have about 33 mostly all Fenders and Gibson's and a PRS but a 10 top and it has the eagle and Piezo pickup system as well and killer 10 top with quilted maple neck as well a 15,000.00 guitar new, also the suede case the eagle. A 1963 Gibson L-5 C.E.S. and 1974 white Les Paul custom 1992 custom s hop Byrdland just to name a few of my Gibson's lots of Fender Clapton guitars and my All Original 1956 Fender Stratocaster just to name a few. happy picking'.. I enjoyed seeing your collection..
OH EM GEE. THE ONE video I have been waiting for for a long time! YEESSSS!
Now we know your gear!
I haz three. An electric knockoff acoustic for practice, a 1963 Melody Maker I’ve modded, it was modded when I acquired it in 1981, and a Fender Squire Stratocaster im modding at present.
I don’t think any limit exists but wifeys seem to think there should be one.. IDKW!
I haven't even watched the video yet, but I already know this video is going to be one of my favorites.
18:00 I have exactly the same strat "accept" that it's 100% stock. Love it to bits!
So cool to see whole collection happy sweetwater got you to do it peace phil
I'm shocked that, visually, the guitar of yours I liked the best was the Kiesel Theos! Will have to check it out. Great video Phil
