Beck from Victorious really moved to the UK, became a guitarist, and called himself Dagan. Nice

This legend should receive commission from every music store across the globe.

This dude is literally jack sparrow as a guitar salesman

[SnuffySpaghetti]

His charisma is otherworldly. I don’t know if it’s the accent or the way he chooses his words, but I definitely want pedals now.

Watching your videos has rekindled my love for guitar. It's been years since I've played and I no longer even own one. After watching your videos, I've been inspired to go out and buy everything once again and dive back into playing.

It's easy to sell something that you genuinely love to mess around with. He's having so much fun. It's contagious.

I've said before on some of Dagan's other videos. I think he could / can sell ANYTHING. Always explained in down to earth language. No in depth tech talk ... Great guy :)

Ive been playing for decades, and Ive probably learned more from this guy in the last 10 months!

Gotta love this detailed review and explanation of each pedal and what they do.

[hedekbass]

That submariner on the right wrist must have scratched so many guitars...

Dagan got me hooked on this channel! Love the energy and enthusiasm

[danareese]

The BD-2 was the first pedal I ever bought. I basically watched a ton of videos and then just went to a shop and tried a bunch, that one was just the one I liked the sound of the most. Love that pedal.

[TokyoBlue]
