EP.49 The Ups & Downs of starting a Guitar Channel - The Real 2025 Recap

2025 was a year of highs, lows, and a lot of hard lessons.

In this video, I break down the real ups and downs of starting and growing a guitar YouTube channel. From daily Shorts and long-form guitar reviews, to building guitars, wiring mods, nut replacements, flea market finds, and covering NAMM 2025 — this year pushed me in ways I didn’t expect.

I also talk honestly about the challenges behind the scenes: burnout, taking a four-month break for work and personal reasons, attempting to launch a guitar brand that didn’t work out, and what stepping away taught me about focus and priorities.

This isn’t just a highlight reel — it’s the reality of trying to build something meaningful around guitars, creativity, and consistency.
