Phil has been the bumper shredder for the first two episodes of TMS this season. I was left scratching my head after the first episode. The second episode was obviously taped the same day, so his playing was no different. I wouldn't categorize his playing as sloppy as much as I'd say it was meaningless drivel. It had no structure whatsoever. I disagree with the "he only has four 10 second spots to fill" rationale. You can find many average players that can fill 10 seconds with something that could at the very least be considered musical. Phil's fills sounded IMO like a person that picks up a guitar for the first time and tries to mimic a real shredder, only difference being Phil actually hit all the notes. Some guests have been pretty good. Most guests haven't been spectacular, but Phil has the distinction of being the worst. Oh, and that Jackson is still pretty fugly.

He reminded me of a Saturday afternoon in Guitar Center...hack quality "shredding" at best. What a f'king embarassment...that was some of the worst playing that I've ever heard from a pro. I dig some of his guitar work with Def Lep but this was beyond awful.

Phil was definitely not playing up to his potential on those TMS spots but to be honest I think he is probably comfortable with his abilities and obviously it will have zero effect on people showing up to see Lep every summer as they continue to do. Kinda cool that he didnt seem to care how "perfect" he sounded.
He was playing through a splatter-painted Fender Cyber Twin.
