Yeah Greg Koch is cool as far as I'm concerned. Love his sense of humour and he is a wicked cool player .

He doesn't want to show you what a particular guitar sounds like, he wants you to like it so you buy it.

Nothing wrong with that, but you can't describe him as a gear demonstrator - he's a salesman.

I don't watch gear demos as I think they're pretty useless but I like Greg V as a musician and nice guy.

Generally I like anything with a good player and high sound quality. Mic on the amp is a must.
