What can I say, the man is a legend!! Doing this video with him was very special, and what happened at the beginning made it even more so! 😀

1:43 is the bit that phil x wanted to know.

I stood not more than 6' away from Phil when he came to the UK playing alongside Dorje in Brum and was totally & completely in awe of his musical prowess. Really enjoyable player !

1:00 when a guitar legend gives you a "fuck yeah , dude!" look

I love Phil X's energy... that dude can play just about any style of music on guitar! I was always a fan of his show... it always seemed like he did a couple bumps right before they counted him down to go live!

Finally someone interviewing Phil who is just as cool!!

Not only is Phil a great musician he's a great down to earth guy. I'm lucky to have met him.

Every god damn time i see Phil X I am blown away at not only his playing,but how down to earth he is. Not many dudes with his talent can still resist a huge ego. But damn hes got some tasty licks.....He is a guitarists guitar player. Great video,and you got some skills too Mike!

Phil's guitar in this video is the sexiest race car. Damn what a tone...Love the blues jam!

Great video bro! You guys killed it!

Great interview bro 🤘🎸🔥

Great stuff guys the jam was really cool! 😎🎸

This is my favorite has both Phil l & Mike you two need to play more you all sound amazing and it looks like both had a good time .. this is how I found you Mike with being a Bon Jovi and Phil X fan and doing a search

Love the conversation, especially the one that started at 22:00.

Phil X is a stand out guitar player with his guitar playing style. He is like the old players that come up with a wicked part to a lead that will stand out in a crowd. Allot of guys can do good lead solo's but there is some guys that stand above most all from doing a lead that stands out with the style of play and showmanship to where it is just as good to see as much as it is to hear. Showmanship like the greats from Eddie Van Halen for tapping and hammer on's , He is just as good to see live as well as hear live Jeff Beck, Jimmy Page, Steve Ray Vaughn All these guitars players are just as good to see live than to hear it live as well . Keep it up Phil. Keep Rockin Bro. Show em Canadian's can Rock with the best of them. Cheers Toronto Rocks!!

The two guys i've learnt the most from on youtube!

just the kind of video i need after a bad day

Honestly mike..as a fellow boy south of the M25..im really proud of you..you came across really good in this video..a real pro!!! Well done fella!

Damn'! His guitar sounds and looks fantastic!!!

Unforgettable moment with phillip😉

Nice. Two of the coolest and most down to earth players out there. I've been playing for 25 years Mike and watching you has bridged gaps in my knowledge I didn't even know was there.

Mate, what a killer video! Kudos to you for giving Phil something to think about!

Great. 2 musicians enjoying the power and love of music. Awesome.

I love the jam always come back to listen to it. 😌

Phil X you are on another level

Great job. Great interview - PhilX looked like he was really enjoying it. And your playing on this and in the Yasi Hofer jam was awesome.

Awesome vid mike!! Saw Phil with his band a couple years ago and he was kick ass. Proud Canadian to boot 👍

Marvel: Infinity war is the most ambitious crossover ever. Mike: ..hold my beer But for real tho, this so sick!! :D 🎸🤘 awesome playing from both of you!

Phil X is right, have your influences, find your style, but always be you.

he is so wonderfully Canadian.Tx Mike.

@ 22:11 - Oh my goodness...I've died and gone to **Guitar-playing Heaven** - I could listen to the two of you jam all day long...you guys are **AWESOME!!!!** Excellent video!!!!! 💗💗💗

Unintentional pun: "crappy joke" -- while talking about bathroom jam sessions. That was solid.

phil x... lol y did u have to str8 beast on this kid?? loved every second. u are the man

Two of my favorite beautiful souls from Guitcon rocking out and chilling together. Love it brother!!!! :-)

Im loving this series. So badass.

Phil X has such great tone and feel. Really relevant questions. Good to hear you still teach, I'd love to have a lesson or even just pay you to jam and learn that way 🤣 My guitar addiction is wholly supported by my wife who is a great singer.

Hey mike great upload good to see two guitar virtuosos in the same channel. I used to love seeing Phil x on fretted Americana and its good too see him on your channel cheers 🍻🍺🍺🍺🍻🍻

That H&K amp Phil X is playing is killer!

Long time! Good to hear you again Phil, not just your licks but your voice on guitar playing and ideas about playing! Wish you the best and love seeing you on KZfaq! Love your Phil-osophy. See that? Yea Baby! Keep Rockin' Man! Fingers Fingers Fingers!!! Peace Out!

Phil X, lo sigo desde que probaba guitarras, un rockero de ley. Saludos desde Argentina, lugar del mundo donde las grandes bandas vienen a filmar sus films... ¿Por qué será? Saludos.

Phil is a ball of fun!

Right on guys!! You both can jam!! I grew up listening to bon jovi "slippery when wet" a very underated band!! Also skid row and alice in chains, metalica, megadeath. Then came the grunge era with nirvana, soundgarden, pearl jam, red hot chilli peppers,greenday and soo many others greats. Those are alot of my guitar inspirations. Be yourself !!! incorperate those inspirations into your guitar playing very cool!! Rock on guys!! Thanks great video!!

nice interview! can't beat a bit of phil x! one jam I'd love to see happen would be with Phil an ian thornley, that could potentially blow minds an melt faces!

VERY Cool! Show's that no matter who you are, you can always learn! Way to go Mike!!!!

Phil X is badass!!...great playing Mike!

That dude is very cool but seriously, your playing in that intro was next level! Those Framas guitars look awesome too!

Awesome vid and great playing from BOTH!

Great video mate, and well played! Nice to see another 9.5 fan :) they saved my life after a finger injury when 10s were too much. Cheers!

that was awesome, always love to watch phil x play;-)

Great interview! Noel is great, Mike is great, and so is Philx.

Awesome interview

Phil X rocks thanks guys

Fantastic interview Mike ! Thanks to you and Phil X !

Two great players..one great video!

Great how both guitars had different tonalitiies

Mike, Oasis and Noel Gallagher got me into playing guitar too, I think I started playing in 1996 too. Later realized Noel isn't the best guitarist but he writes the best tunes!

Great video, Mike! I'm a big fan of Phil-X. Keep the videos comin'!

Very cool indeed

That was really good mike! Well done bud!!!!

Very high quality vids. Great job!

Awesome mike. Luvs it

Phil X wears a Mike Bradley T-shirt, .......... he does!

Top 3 blokes I want to be friends with : 1/ Mike Bradley 2/ Mike Bradley 3/ Mike Bradley

Love Phil X

GREAT¡¡¡¡¡¡¡

Thought about phil x today and found this video lol

I liked those 9.5 gauge strings for standard tuning because of the 10s being too heavy and 9s being too light thing. But I am a one guitar person and had to ditch the 9.5s. If I have other guitars the strings go rusty without ever being used, so i make do with one. My current guitar is a 1990s Les Paul Studio with an ebony board and Whole Lotta Humbucker pickups. Unlike other Gibsons I have had, this one insists on 10s. Not sure why, but 10s make it come alive. It took about a month to really get used to the heavier strings and be able to do the stuff i could with lighter ones. it was a bit ouch for a while. p.s. i have known guitarists who use the keeping their callouses dry excuse for not doing their own dishes. p.p.s. Maybe i was snobby or something, but i always bought the more expensive Gibson models thinking the Studio and Special ones would not be as good. Not in this case. The guitar is fantastic. It makes me want a 1990s SG Special. I can do without the extra bling. Only problem is that I have worn the nickel frets flat really fast since I got it. i will go stainless i think. There is all this talk of them not staying in tune. I think it is BS tbh. If the nut is in good shape and you restring properly, the tuning is rock solid. Next guitar? i would like an old Guild acoustic. Always wanted one. The first guitar I ever bought was a 1955 Gibson Southern Jumbo. it cost a grand back then. i sold it to pay for a party and gig I put on with bands in my back garden. Doh. I did not really lose money on it though. That's the good thing about buying used guitars. Good ones hold their price. it lets you play the field a bit trying different ones out without it costing lots. Amp? I am using a Laney IRT Studio right now into Two Notes WOS and little active monitors. Apartment tones. Works very well. I prefer it to 100% modelling with Guitar Rig etc. I have some parts coming together to build a clone of a vintage Marshall 18 watter i will run with a Torpedo Captor. Sometimes i get into that Joe Walsh sound. He got some great tones, so i might build a Fender Champ clone one day too. A Captor will let me use them all without noise control turning up. Mike is from London? Sounds it. Maybe Essex. Tooting and then Milton Keynes for me. They kindly referred to us MK kids as 'London overspill' like were were part of the drainage system. Bloody toffs. Now i live in New Zealand. Really nice place, but I still miss England at times though.

Hot licks!!

Phil X plays the guitar the same way he lives... authentically!

you 2 got a great chemistry! very cool video !!!

Can I play a little bit!? Phil X is too cool and humble 👍

Phil and Zakk wylde would be the funniest dudes to hang with….always upbeat, funny and having a good time….oh, and Greg Koch!

For people who say Phil stole Richie Sambora's gig...educate yourself Muppets,he filled in for Rhichie when he went into rehab years ago..john phoned Phil personally to ask him to play for them.Phil was shocked as hell,and obviously you don't turn down a gig like that.. Richie Sambora then went AWOL again and couldn't play..so Phil stepped in again..he never had any intention of 'stealing' Rhichies gig.

Phil Genio!!!

Wow!

Epic .................

Holy Jesus dying what a fucking jam bys!

Phil: "I don't sweep because fuck Yngwie". YESSS!!!!!! Tell the truth, Phil. You've watched Chappers playing and thought "I just want to snatch that guitar from him and slap a melody into his head."

You should have started the video saying “so, Phil X....tell me about your ankles.”

sick.

The part Phil is referring to is at 1.43 mins.

phils guitar looks like an sg from heaven

You know a guy loves bridge pickup sounds when that’s all he has. How about some neck...nope. Haha. Sounds good!

Theophilos .means , if i'm not mistaken . = friend of God . Theo is a nice abbreviation as well . Phil is a great guitar player .

Phil is a madman..he is the bi polar poster child for absolute guitar mayhem..i mean he will be tearing up a riff and then it's like..whoa squirrel..no van halen..no cheap trick..wahhhhhh yes get it baby....oh wait i forgot how that song went...what was i saying..epic shred......wahhhhhh...needs to change his name to just..awesome...and then call his band..just awesome..because thats is what is up with Phil x and his band(wont get into bon jovi)..Phil is one of those guys where your jamming..and your good..been playing for years and he just goes hey bro check out this riff..and then just fucking drops some madness in your lap and leaves you eating a bit of that humble pie and your only reaction is..dam!!!! yep Phil is that guy..just fucking awesome

Does anyone know Phil X's schedule during the Bon Jovi tour? Just wondering if he'll be available in Sydney for any meet/greet or workshop type situations?

Eventually, one will put Phil X, Greg Koch and Devin Townsend in the same room. We already have Victor Wooten playing progressive metal, so anything can happen.

What the fuck! Can't believe what I'm seeing!

@6:42 He IS one good lookin' son of a bitch.

Honestly, I enjoyed your playing much more. I don't think I'd like to see what is inside his mind...LOL! Anyway, you should be quite proud of what you did on stage at Guitcon. For me, you were the highlight of the week.

:-) Good stuff& great fun.

Great video Mike. These jams are awesome! I’ve seen a prs silver sky floating around some of your videos, did you get a chance to play it?

Only one dislike. Must be a bassplayer.

12:00 😮😮😮

mike hi

No sweep picking could he get any cooler 😎

Finally !! Finally !! Mike has found his true twin !! (for his youtube comparo videos) ... but i get a strong feeling when Mike calls up Phil to ask him to do a comparo video on his channel, Phil will respond in his best British (B*S!) 'I am not available................i could be wrong though...............

This guy looks like he could be Phils son.

Great guitarist, character and a generally funny/nice guy. Then he was on my Twitter feed begging and crowdfunding for his mother-in-law's medical fees and got pissed off when people questioned the money he must be getting with Bon Jovi. Poncing when you are a big earner is the pits.

We miss philx1111
