Mike Hermans is the best musician
Just Nick is not a great musician but a good reviewer
Burgs is an Okka Ausie geezer ..wysiwyg

Pete Thorn
Allen Hinds & Paul Jackson Jr on the Xotic stuff
Burgs is ok
Andy Timmons does a good job too

I like Harry Maes from Bax Music and of late, Doug Rappoport, but he's just playing and there's not much in the way of explanation.
There's a few I don't like but the main one that comes to mind is Tony McKenzie and I can't quite place why I don't like Schnobel even though the detail is there.
Just Nick bores me to death with his really long intros.
Andertons gets on my nerves due to the chilish gags.
I like Dan and Mick but the awkward laughing fits at the end of playing a Metal Zone with gain at 11 tends to wear thin a little.
Rabea is my go to. I find his musical style fascinating and have found we have similar tastes musically and in gear.

Totally monster player though - probably one of the best on YouTube - and I still watch all his videos just to hear him play.
But Nick's voice is so soothing!

Demo wise, as long as they're actually using a microphone and avoid the two major pitfalls of 1. Spending the first 10 min of the video giving me an itemised break down of the entire signal chain, from string gauge to speaker cone. - Just put it in the comments ffs.
2. Boring me to death with their improvised playing.
- I prefer it when demo guys either, pre-plan a piece of music to play which they think best demonstrates the pedals capabilities, or just stick to some fairly 'dry' (i.e nothing fancy) looped audio samples. "Here's a barrel chord.", "Here's some licks." etc.
If you're not going to attempt to do anything interesting with the pedal keep it short, sweet and functional.
I do not enjoy being exposed to 5/ 10min plus of stream of consciousness pentatonic noodlings. Additional points subtracted for playing up and down the fretboard on a single string *cough* Just nick *cough*.
Wear silly hat
Talk shit
Play the same rehearsed lines that are in all Chapman videos
Let Lee Anderton play something tasteful and melodic for a few secs
Stomp all over it with tasteless shred nonsense
Pull a silly face
Talk more shit.
Do you guys see what I see when Chapman is on screen ?
Do you think Andertons demonstrations would be better without him ?
I'd agree with the above. Lee would be better off doing it with someone else imo.
I think Chappers see's himself as the 'comedy relief' to Lee's guitar shop salesman pitch *sigh*.
Some of the Mike Herman's ones are the closest to my ideal - you can just watch the first few minutes for a musical over view but keep watching if you want more detail.
I find pete thorn pretty informative for my mid-level knowledge of things.
Rebea is is my go to for things, only seems to review things he actually likes, and it more my style of music.
Ruan 'fluff' Bruce would be a good shout too, but He seems to float between endoursements quite a lot which makes me question how much opinion and how much is $$
I often find random punters' YouTube reviews far more useful.
Very unlikely I would guess, more likely to see him raving about it being amazing.
