    A good way for Andertons to make money would be have sufficient stock of what they do videos about. I was sold on the Epiphone Riviera after their video but they had no stock so I got one from Guitar Village. Same happened with my Epiphone J45 and I got one from Peach...

    I like the perk of "free or discounted shipping". Shipping is free over £100 anyway.

    Which probably means they will start to charge for shipping. So they are essentially doing an Anderson's prime model. To keep you coming back for more stuff cos you save on shipping. Free shipping for a £120 guitar must cut into profit margins a bit. Less so on a 4k Gibson, then again I'd never buy a 4k guitar online and have it shipped.

    They were funnier when they used to do daft videos with ridiculous wigs n stuff. Chappers  used to wear that Rasta dreadlock wig with a bandana over it, that was great.

    I’m not sure that would work. Lee’s pretty trim - but Danish Pete, Chappers & Rabea are all carrying a bit too much weight - for me at least....

    I must be missing something - why would I pay to watch advertorials?

    I think they are planning other content such as tutorials and such-like.

    I feel like I'm twenty years to old for andertons videos. They are a bit to Topgeary "haha knobs" etc for me. 

    Besides all that, I've had my fill of 12 bar blues noodling. If they can get away with charging people to watch those videos, more power to them.
    I would love to change my username, but I fully understand the T&C's (it was an old band nickname). So please feel free to call me Dave.

    I'm sure I'm not his type, but Rabea is well up my street tbh. Solid musician, too.

    As for the channel, I don't know - I don't think I get it, but it depends what the content is. I support a couple of youtubers through various means, it doesn't cost that much and I'm glad to help them pay the bills and create stuff I enjoy.

    Andertons are not one, but maybe some people like the content that much they'd pay a bit for it.

    I have watched the odd video here and there over the years from them. I don’t mind them too much and they can be funny in places but I would never pay for them. As has been documented many times some of the personalities on there can be tad annoying but I have not seen it mentioned here but I find the bass videos unwatchable. There is this guy there I just find way over the top. Like someone mentioned above, it’s like he thinks he is on Top Gear.

    Their videos are juvenile and cringeworthy. Charging for them is just stupid.

    They are now at the point where selling music gear is one thing they do, and making video content for a big, overlapping audience is something else they also do. 

    Why wouldn’t they experiment with ways of making something from that too. 

    They may have to experiment a bit with it, it might take a few tries to find a way that works for them and their watchers, it may even end up being a long experiment that goes nowhere. But my point is they’ve done a far better job than most making the video side it’s own thing so why not see if can be it’s own business too 
    Red ones are better.

    Is Mary Spender going to be on it?

    We have to be so very careful, what we believe in...
