Greg is a weird one, as it isn't really a "band" in the normal sense, but I would say he was famous for his instructional books and playing live long before he was famous for youtube/wildwood

So he doesn't feel like Fluff, Rabea, etc - the guys who really shouldn't have a signature guitar with a big brand. The cockmaster just feels different than them because he has respectable guitar related stuff in his background besides "worked at andertons in the 2000s"

He does tour with Koch Marshall Trio?

He does tour with Koch Marshall Trio?

Right but he wasn't really "famous" for it and he didn't become well known for his band Although he was well known in the instructional scene and everyone knew who he was so it isn't like fluff or something

I love that dude. My family is from Transylvania in Romania and I imagine that is what I'd sound like it my great grandfather hadn't jumped on the ocean liner.

Nah, that's just the typical unhyped Finnish accent. Very monotone and indeed borderline Classic Hollywood "Transylvania-esque".

I once was on holidays on the Canary Islands and there was this 3 piece coverband playing Bee Gees stuff in a sports bar; purely from the talking in between the songs I gathered that the singer was a local, but their guitar player was a Finnish guy.
After the show we walked to our room and the guy was a few meters in front of us, so to test him, I muttered 'Perkele pipaari' in the same monotone accent, which roughly translates to "fucking/goddamn pussy" (as in ' genitalia', not weakling... learned it from Marco from Nightwish), but is also used as a general swearing expression; he immediately turned around with a gaze that was a mixture of like I had slapped his mother AND an 'Ahh, I see what you did there'.
