Share shoegazy/ambient pedal/gear/technique youtube channels! I'm always looking for this kinda stuff. Especially for gear reviews. These youtube reviews of people trying to wax Hendrix doesn't tell me *anything* about whether I'd like a pedal or not. I recently saw someone testing one of those shoegaze pedals (loomer, maybe?) doing like hair metal solos -- WHAT? So please post more shoegazy channels for me. :)

I quite like these:

Chords of Orion. "How to play ambient guitar" tutorials. Gear reviews. Technique videos. Just a bunch of great stuff. The Bob Ross of guitar; enough said.

SHOEGAZER. This guy has more pedals than most. Does some shoegaze pedalboard tutorials, technique videos, gear reviews, cool stuff.

I always saw Sir Davos as more protector than predator. Does that make me an optimist? :idk:

I have yet to see an ambient pedal challenge channel that I enjoyed. They all seem like they do too few drugs.

Guess the closest xontenders for me would be Collector/Emitter and ThePedalZone.

most of the "ambient" style guys I listen to on YT are synth dudes who stretch out a bit more with their gear choices.

Counterpoint: Listening to the way a pedal sounds is always useful, regardless of style.

lol, you messed up the quotes, I didn't mention Andy. How high are you?

don't really mind worship music when high I guess.. but it's rare I indulge in that genre of demos.

These two are ambient synth channels, but use pedals pretty often

I had to skip over all that landscape stuff. I'd raher watch the tape setup. Cool idea!
