KZitem has been doing this to a lot of people; some users have slowed done their uploads and switched to mostly streaming because their content isn't being pushed to viewers/subscribers. Hopefully the issues get fixed soon, love the content you make.

I love your blindfold challenges, and the only conspiracy I saw was Lee's "Isn't everything cut by CNC" line. As you have visited every guitar factory in "East Asia" you have probably seen what the rest of us can only theorise: Why waste a CNC machine's time when people are cheaper and more scalable. Drilling holes isn't rocket science, neither is routing out a few cavities.

@@RobChappers I would love to watch a YT of everything you learned from touring guitar factories and making guitars. I watched all 2 hours of Rob Scallon's Schecter video and was blown away buy what goes into their USA guitars. OTOH I know ex-managers of Chinese factories who quit their jobs because [well, you know why]. I know nothing about what's inbetween those two extremes, or why companies make some guitars in Indonesia. I really respect that all your guitars have SD pickups, and the statement that makes about your comittment to quality and your total lack of interest in diluting your brand to make cheap guitars.

I think mainly due to your confidence and straight up english nature which a lot of the internet doesn't understand. It's clear to see your immense talent and its fair to say you are still extremely successful in the face of all things considered, which is really impressive, you have always stayed true to yourself.

Happy Birthday, man, to you and your dad. On the "youtube" thing, here is a theory...not saying this is what is actually happening in regards to your song release...it is just a theory...and I don't really care for the phrase "conspiracy theory", because I think there is an intentional agenda that created that phrase, so that when a point to consider gets dubbed "conspiracy theory", the phrase's intent of being created is to cause as much dismissal of consideration within the ranks of the general population as much as possible...example: conspiracy theory = hogwash...conspiracy theory = paranoia...conspiracy theory considerer...not even necessarily even completely bought into a point to consider as being a legitimate concern, but at least objectively considering the point in question to weigh out if the point has merit or not...anyone who considers a point that has been dubbed a "conspiracy theory", = dumba$$...I consider the phrase has extreme potential to cause the general population to just roll over without any consideration on matters that could be devastating to them and their families and friends if not met with resistance...how about this example:...point dubbed conspiracy theory = lie/ deception...well, what it it isn't, and the person that the concept is intended against just dismisses it because it was dubbed a "conspiracy theory"?...what if the person that dubbed it that is the liar, and has an agenda to use the phrase "conspiracy theory" to get as many people as possible to roll over so they can have free reign to get away with what ever their agenda is? People/ entities/ groups/ factions make agendas all the time...they create plans to put into action, and that's all well and good, unless of coarse the ones creating the plans to put into action are doing so with full intent to execute on your personal demise, because the path you have taken is a polar opposite direction against what they are propagating, and inhibits or hinders them from reaching what their end goal is? Just something to consider...hey Rob, hope you and yours are doing well today!

[edit] It seems you genuinely like the EastCoast LP, and given I'm not the one blindfolded I should refrain from judging. Though I think Lee should refrain from plugging them at every opportunity.

Happy birthday, Chappers! Another year, and you'll be to the point where you can't remember how old you are! I have to think of how old my son is, and add the age I was, when he was born, to figure out how old I am. And I still get it wrong, sometimes! Good deal, hanging out with Nepalese folks! They tend to be very friendly, and fun, in my experience. And, yes, you are known, all over the world! You can judge how famous you are, by how many YT channels there are that exist only to sh*t on you. From what I've seen, you have more than a few! Congratulations! Don't try to figure out The Algorithm God, you'll just go insane. Sooner, or later, people will find your videos, on their own, and you'll be getting the numbers, again. Just keep at it. The channels I sub to tend to be on the fringe of modern life, and I see every content creator go through this "doldrum state" at least once a year. The Algorithm God may even bury you on purpose, from time to time, until it decides to pick on someone else, for a while! In the meantime, you live on a Mediterranean island (I'm so freaking jealous! I love the Med!), you have a beautiful wife, you have beautiful kids, and you have great friends! THAT, my brother, is SUCCESS! Everything else is whipped cream on the pie! 🤘

Man, I don't know, you've always done really well with the blindfold thing. I think you just have an ear for that kind of thing, and maybe people read too much into it. Lol, it's entertainment. I know you're too far away but I sort of wish it was more like the older days. There are people and public figures I follow and have followed for a million years, and somehow find out by accident they posted something new. Meaning I have notifications (the bell) set for all and I don't know they posted something. I know I'm saying too much, but sinse 2019 I've wanted to see more Les Paul stuff. Not Epiphone. Les Paul, specifically from Andertons. I loved the shootouts, the new remakes, whatever. If I type it in, I get squat. I wonder if that's on purpose somehow, or they just aren't doing it. But I work a lot and don't have time to try and filter through every single thing. FYI, I mentioned 2019 because that's when they seemed to really turn a corner in terms of rebuilding the quality people expect.. I watch your when I know it's posted.

KZitem 'may' be limiting the music video as it doesn't match your usual video length so doesn't think it's worth promoting as it could be a quick "throwaway" video which won't get your usual audience retention. Worth trying tacking something on to the end of the song - maybe a riff breakdown or something to take it over 10 min. Just a thought.

About your birthday and strange food, you could go to my hometown in Southern Italy (Santeramo in Colle), there are a lot of places where we eat horse meat. Yes, I know, for you Brits it's something close to be very blasphemous, but it might be a very crazy and stupid thing to do at your 50th birthday... ;) Talking a little bit more seriously, I've bought a Ghost Fret Pro some weeks ago, mainly because I heard many bad things about your company and I wanted to give a try as well as I needed a backup guitar, to play downtuned songs (by the way, in C#) as well. Basically it has become quickly the main axe replacing my Schecter C-1 standard tuned, and now I'm meditating to grab another Chapman to actually play stuff in C#... :)
