i agree. his knowledge is golden!

I couldn’t NOT smile throughout this entire video. Such an amazing job, Dan is indeed an entity all by himself.

Look at Dan's face while Tomo plays. You can tell when a guitarist feels the ease of an instrument and just plays because it's there and it feels right. Dan knows it too and it's just beautiful. As a tech myself there is nothing better than watching your customer enjoy what they thought lost.

Dans face when Tomo wanted to come see him was my favorite part. Just genuinely happy. ☺️

Dan is a living legend. Every time I see a StewMac video I can't believe I get to see this man's work and experience.

End jam. Legendary teacher meets legendary repairman. What a moment!

You gotta keep in mind that Stew Mac isn't showing repairs, they are selling tools. This video wasn't "check out this cool repair." It was "check out the tools we sell to make this repair." That's not a knock on them; I watched it and have bought stuff from them. But this is a sales channel, not a repair channel.

Love this! That's what we like to hear...Thank you!

I know Tomo back in the day. Now as a Berklee professor, and now that I'm a born again musician on guitar, I learn a thing or two from him now and then. Today's lesson was when he suggested Dan and he play together, Dan said Tomo was out of his league, and Tomo replied, "Music man!" I've had this experience again and again in my lifetime as a musician. When you get the opportunity to play, no matter what that opportunity is, take it. You are going to be shocked not only when you play with better musicians, but how freakin' awesome you are when you're the most skilled and experienced one in the group. Most of your favorite pop artists aren't nearly as good as the members of the bands they play with. Likewise, it's shocking how, for example, a school band plays better with even just one member who is more capable. And as a great example, those of us who watched this video are now so much better at understanding our guitars and how they work because of Dan. Playing music with others at every level is glorious for yourself, and them as well.

I've been following these videos off and on for years, such wonderful content. The care you give to these instruments and the knowledge you share is invaluable. Props to the production team that puts these videos together as well!

This is amazing, I'd love to watch more videos of the amazing Dan's repair videos! Dan's calm and measured tone even when things were going wrong were definitely a joy to watch and listen to.
