@Michael Miller You know I waited until I was about 49 before I took my guitar playing serious. I got on this here You Tube contraption and spent a lot of time talking with other players and getting advice and for the most part it was great. But I have noticed that especially these past 3 years it has gotten really bad. It just seems that the guitar community is filled with a bunch of people who really just hate other people who have a different opinion than they do. I used to belong to a Facebook group of guitarists as well and I was shocked by some of the things people were saying to one another. The post that was the final straw for me was one of a young 14 year old who had just been given their first ever acoustic guitar and they made a video of their playing. Of course it was horrible lol, but the comments that young man received were totally uncalled for and I had had enough at that point. Now with all this calling out of fake guitarists and this new channel "exposing" big names in the You Tube world, I fear You Tube is going to be such a toxic environment that most people will stay away from it.

Well, the one was really more for his band mates, who likely aren't as well off. And people could simply choose not to donate. The one where there was supposed to be a video posted to show him being presented with the gift, that never happened, isn't a good look though. What was promised should have been delivered. Not sure if people were able to request refunds for that one though? To be clear, I am not here to hate on Rob, but I can understand Levi's animosity considering what happened, but at least Rob did let it go in the end and did not push it. I enjoy a lot of what Rob puts out as well, but there is no denying that he could have handled things better. If he had just said something like, 'I am sorry, I overreacted to some people's criticism', that would have been a much better way to handle it. Or, probably better yet, he could have just ignored the video he responded to altogether.

@ronpipes1988

@@maaaaaap I think there's a point to be made here as well as some misunderstanding as to what is vital and/or relevant. Food is vital for life, as is water and air. There are no substitutes. We didn't make it that way, it just is that way. Human interaction in physical form is vital for good mental and psychological health. Again, that's not how we made it, it just is that way. So, in regards to social media, its vitality as a form of interaction and communication is not the same as face to face interaction. Any vitality and relevance that it has is only there because that is what we have given it, and that is a very different thing. It's not there naturally, but is there because we have made it that way. Social media, facebook, twitter, instagram, youtube, these are not real life face to face interactions. If they went away tomorrow we would be okay, we'd survive. But, take away true face to face human interaction in real time and the world and the people in it would suffer tremendously. There is a difference between the two and people have forgotten that. In fact, a great many will place more emphasis on social media than face to face contact and communication. What is electronic and virtual has, to far too many, become more real than what is actually real. People have forgotten that social interaction takes place in real time in the real world. True Social interaction is a Face to Face matter, not something that is done electronically. That is not social interaction. Social interaction is not obtained within electronic social media. True, social media is a form of communication, but it is only vital in the sense that we have made it that way, and that doesn't make something truly "Vital". There is a distinct difference, and it's this difference that people no longer understand. Social Medial in all of its forms is simply a tool. Communication via social media is also only a tool. Face to Face Social Interaction and communication is not a tool, it's a necessity for us as humans. There is no substitute and it is and always will be more vital than any online interaction in any form. You cannot have physical sex online, nor can you share a meal with someone online. Notice that I said "with someone". To share a meal with someone while physically being present with each other is an experience that cannot be replicated online. Having a video chat is not the same as sitting across the table with someone, and texting is little more than a postal letter, just much quicker. It's not a substitute for in person face to face communication. For some people this electronic social interaction and communication is 'vital' to their business. But in the sense of what is real and what is virtual, it has no vitality other than what we as a people give it, and it is this fact that has been forgotten. People have substituted meanings of words to mean completely different things in order to accommodate all of this technology, but at the risk confusing levels of interaction to being the same thing, which they are emphatically not. What's worse, people wont even understand what it is that I am saying at all, or they'll miss the import of it completely. It'll all go right over their heads. For those people all I can suggest is that they look up a steak or some kind of wonderful meal online, find a good one, and then try to eat that virtual representation through the use of their computer, tablet, smart phone, etc. Oh....yeah you can order it and have it delivered, but at that point it's no longer virtual and is no longer just a part of the virtual world. Once delivered it's right there in your face in front of you ready to be eaten. If you are hungry, the virtual representation of it does you absolutely no good at all. It's only when it becomes an actual physical reality in front of you that you can partake in all it's savory goodness. If you think that social media and social interaction of any kind is any different than the scenario in the above paragraph, then you have lost touch with the real world, and that's the problem. One is in the real world, the other is in an electronic virtual environment. They are not the same, cannot be the same, and they do not possess the same level of realness. Social media, social media communication, KZread, these have all become substitutes for the real thing, but people have come to rely on them as their sole forms of communication and interaction, thinking and believing that they are as real as real can be. Sure, the effect of it definitely has an effect on the world around us, but they are not real in the same sense. It's this confusion about the levels of realness in our world between that which is physical and that which is virtual that is part of the root of many of these online problems. To say social media is meaningless isn't about being in denial. It is, instead, about being able to differentiate between those aspects of life that really truly matter, and those things that do not. There are things that matter simply because of what they are, and there are other things that matter only to the extent that we have given them value. The things that matter for what they are cannot be ignored. Things that matter because of the value that we have given can change quickly and quite drastically. But those things that matter because of their intrinsic nature are not things that we can survive without. We can survive without Social media and KZread. We cannot survive without each other in the physical sense. We have to live in the real world, not the virtual world, and as soon as we forget that, which we have, then we are all in big trouble.

If you don't know Otto Reina then check out his site. I wish you a perfect start into 2020.

Hi, I agree with everything you say.

That guitar leaning on the amp... I feel for the fret that's getting dented.

I cannot wait to read these comments again tomorrow 😂

gotta be remembered for something...😜👊

One day Rabea will come out and tell the story of his casting couch horror with Chapman. If people can't see judge Chapman properly, how will they ever decide anything about aliens..

He might, but Rabea let's his playing do more of the talking. I wouldn't waste my time either.

I’ve never liked Chapman. Always seen through the nice guy facade. He’s very astute at manipulating people with much more talent than himself, both in music and in business. The guy is just a disingenuous shill who knows how to take advantage of weak minded people.

Quite agree. When he speaks, it sets off alarm bells. He sounds like a door-stepping politician.

Omg I can’t believe I’m seeing these videos come up on my feed .. calm down KZread gossip queens . All parties included 🤦🏻‍♂️

Ya know, if it was one or two things about Chapman (or even 6 or 7) in Kelan's video, you could say, meh, coincidence, or perhaps we don't know the truth or other side of the story. In my opinion, there were just too many questionable instances. I don't know, anyone who starts a video off with "when you have as much online power as I do..." Seriously? What the hell is "online power" anyway? I've been a fan of several KZread guitar channels such as Glenn Fricker, and even some of Rob's earlier stuff. But with the recent info that was shared in Kelan's videos about "Fearless Reviews", (as well as other sources who share the same info), for me, its all left a bad taste. I mean, I kind of feel like I need to make sure a video has no subscribers and minus the 10 friggin' adds when trying to get an honest review of gear. At this point, I'll trust some kid doing a demo who saved up money from his paper route over someone "famous". Just my 2 cents, for what its worth.

Rays Metal Tracks The internet shouldn’t be a platform to unleash a smear campaign on someone you don’t know, based on a few shaky facts and a whole lot of speculation and exaggeration. It seems to me the way some people operate on the internet is akin to road rage. The sense of anonymity seems to permit people to unleash horrific abuse on other people with no conscience. It’s the moral equivalent of the 80 year old driver, driving at 30mph in a 60mph zone, who gives you the finger and blares their car horn angrily when you overtake them. They’ve suffered a momentary lapse in manners. We can do better people.

Don Harrold, I couldn't agree more regarding so many "keyboard warriors". Sometimes it amazes me what folks will write, knowing they are safe retreating behind a screen name and laws that protect their anonymity. Honestly, I don't watch much content from Chapman - but he always seemed like a nice enough guy in his videos, and his line of guitars (the ones I have played) seem like a pretty good bang for the buck. I rarely subscribe to the daily rant of he-said,-she-said that we often find on so many pages these days. Sadly it seems that even the guitar community is not immune to crossing a line to boost view counts. For some reason I felt compelled to comment on Rob's response video. (sidebar: guitar is a hobby of mine, and like most, I don't make a living in music or in the public eye, such as KZread. I guess I struggled understanding what Rob refers to "online power", and I think that kind of irked me a bit, which may have been the cause for my post). I don't know Kelan, so I cant stand behind 100% of his claims. I think what also may have been weighing on my mind was the potential for trusted personalities on KZread who could be getting behind gear that they are being financially compensated for. I may have been feeling some of that frustration when I wrote my post. I would never want to damage the reputation of another person. Its just really not in my nature. I apologize if any of my comments came off as an intention to put someone down. Thanks Don, I appreciate the reminder. :)

@@donharrold1375 Those keyboard warriors and shaky facts are exactly why people respond so well to evidenced, well researched videos such as KDH's. He put it all out there, but not before doing diligent research and making no claims except for those he was certain of. It was sad to see that Chappers has so many issues with the truth, but it's good to know that he has no hesitation to lie in order to get what he wants. As a guitarist and a guitar purchaser, I'm glad to have that information.

You speak very well and you're very smart. Good vid.

The man has children. you think that making a video wishing him to 'go die' is reasonable? is that justified in any way? seriously? get a clue man.

Judging by the tone of videos now days I may be sued or threatened 😂 I turned up to a monthly shoot, (record audio as normal) and I was told he didn’t want to work with me anymore, a friend for years couldn’t call me up and have a chat about what they didn’t like etc etc or what they wanted to do or people they wanted to work with. I got there and a someone else told me it was either them or me, so I went. I’ve never heard a peep from them since (6 years is it?)) pretty shit friend really.

@@PaulAnnis WTF? That's just plain weird. OK, the production values of your videos were by today's standards somewhat low, but (a) I don't think anyone cared and (b) so were his own and the stuff shot in Andertons... everyone has improved with better equipment and techniques, and I'm sure you're no different. Has Lee Anderton ever said anything to you? He always seemed the more decent of the two to me.

Everything youtube keeps changing but the drama never goes. Cant these things be settled behind the scenes. For efficiency sake, if nothing else.
