This is one of two LTD VIPERS that Phil uses regularly. You can see it on stage with him when he toured with Bon Jovi as well as numerous live videos and photos on stage with the DRILLS. This guitar has been on several recordings and is on of Phil's "go to" Axes. This Guitar is not for sale, we just thought you'd like to hear and see a less expensive guitar in the hands of the expert and through the Evil Robot C-30!! Enjoy!

I had that happen to me man, bought a new SG faded couple years ago, forgot to grab my strap with straplocks, and after about 20 minutes she fell and headstock took a clean break. I like the vipers sound, im just stubborn about Gibson haha. Thanks for the reply man, didn't think you responded to stuff. You're a good guitarist and have influenced me a bit from these vids and also The Drills. Keep rockin.

@IvanTuroc 12 жыл бұрын

I agree; I have an old Les Paul "recording" model and the ebony fretboard is the best fretboard I have ever played. It is fast and easy to the fingers. It indeed is a little less warmer than my newer Les Pauls with rosewood fretboards. The only problem I have ever had with ebony is the frets occasionally "raise up" on one end or the other.
