I've subscribed to Uncle Doug's channel for a while now. He makes GREAT videos. He is an excellent teacher.

Yeah anybody can show step-by-step how they did something. What sets Uncle Doug apart is that he is actually a good TEACHER. Makes me wonder if he wasn't/is one.

Agree, Uncle Doug is a great teacher. He has a page on Facebook and I've chatted with him there. Nice man. He's also here on el34world, but I don't know his handle.

No kidding? I wish he would speak up and introduce himself.

Damn, I just watched a video of someone else's amp and low and behold Uncle Doug was testing it out. The only reason I knew the face was his was because of his voice. I will check my history and see if I can find it

Sorry--I've been away and just saw this. Maybe if we ask Uncle Doug he'll introduce himself here.

I agree, his videos are incredible, I love them.  He goes over a lot of great detail on how amps work, etc.  That and his dog is so helpful GO RUSTY :P
