Well, I don't "stream" too much these days, from time to time I watch some nature documentations with the kids.
This thread, howewer, inspired me to create a list of some guitar-related channels on youtube I like to watch when I have time. I am not affiliated in any sort to any of those channels, I just enjoy their content and would like to share it with you. The order of the list is purely random.
First, I would like to link to a video from a luthier restoring a Martin D-28. It's beatifully filmed, the luthier has an approach I dig very much, and it's very entertaining and instructive. Unfortunately there are no more videos on this channel - maybe more will pop up in the future? I will definitely check back.
Secondly for something quite different:
Pete Thorn's youtube channel. Besides from being an outstanding guitar player, overflowing with creativity and knowledge, he is very down to earth and likeable. In this video he talks about how to and not to use overdrive and distortion. Check out his channel, he has lots of interesting content.
Up next for your consideration is
The Trogly's Guitar Show. I like this guys kind of nerdy, but at the same time very informative and in-depht aproach. I discovered his channel when I recently was thinking about buying another Gibson guitar. This very model, to be precise:
FYI: I didn't buy it. I watched a couple of reviews of this guitar, and Trogly's is by far the most helpful and competent IMO.
The next guy needs no introduction: Norm from
Norman's Rare Guitars. His channel features a lot of videos of more or less famous players stopping by and playing the guitar, and there are also some very interesting behind the scene videos, like this:
Next on the list: One of my personal guitar heroes,
Paul Gilbert. On his incredibly loaded channel he does a series where he talks about himself, his influences, life as a rockstar, guitars and many more. And all this in a very likeable and diverting manner. Here you'll find all episodes:
SCARIFIED: The Terrifying Tales of Paul Gilbert.
Last, but not least at all,
Paul Davids. Extremely sympatico, knowledgeable and with an incredible instinct for the blues. He talks about music theory, recording, being a youtuber, songwriting and much more. His videos are very well editet, pure eye candy. I found this video here especially interesting, where he talks about sound reflection and it's importance in recording situations:
Paul also offers a beginner's and an intermedia online course, both I can personally highly recommend.
Have fun!
