Thanks to the voting of my viewers, I was voted NUMBER 5 in the world for online guitar personalities. According to readers of MusicRadar, your old pal Andy is highly influential! Here is the article.
The article discusses an online poll for the best guitar personalities of 2022. The poll includes a variety of guitar players, educators, and content creators from different genres and platforms. The poll aims to recognize and celebrate the most influential and innovative guitar personalities online.
Music Radar say:
That enthusiasm we just mentioned is an essential trait of any guitar channel host, but Andy’s approach shines especially brightly right now. His relatability is aided by a focus on gear a lot of us can actually save up and afford, rather than the elitist ‘look what I’ve got’ trap some others fall into.
Instead of misleading clickbait, there’s genuine honest hooks with Andy’s videos and an ease on camera with guitar that’s clearly, ahem, struck a chord with you in your voting.
We’d also urge newcomers check out his Guitar Stories podcast(opens in new tab) series with Ibanez’s Dr Dan, where the duo speak to a range of industry figures with genuinely insightful results.
I am truly honoured to be in the top 10 and shocked to be placed in the top 5!
I am humbled and grateful to be recognized as one of the top online guitar personalities. This achievement wouldn’t have been possible without the support of my viewers and fans. I’m glad that my approach to guitar gear and education resonates with so many people.
As an online guitar personality, my goal has always been to make guitar playing accessible and enjoyable for everyone. I want to demystify the process of learning and playing guitar and help people find joy in the instrument. Whether it’s through gear reviews, tutorials, or just sharing my own experiences, I hope to inspire and motivate others to pick up the guitar and start playing.
I also want to give a shoutout to the other guitar personalities on the list. It’s inspiring to see so many talented and passionate people sharing their love for guitar online. Together, we can create a community that celebrates creativity, diversity, and inclusivity.
Finally, I want to thank MusicRadar for organizing the poll and recognizing the important role that online guitar personalities play in the guitar world. This recognition is not just for me, but for the entire community of online guitar personalities who are dedicated to making the guitar accessible and fun for everyone. Let’s keep the music playing!
