Recently came across Neural DSP plug ins and hadn't seen them before. Pretty sure I am gonna go with the Nolly for checking out first but all of them seem pretty fantastic. They have some others but these based on the artists preferences are pretty kick ass

It's the nicest guitar I've ever owned. I may be looking at some of the Ernie ball music Man JP's though

Have an interesting set up I've been slowly working on. I grabbed a Radial J48 for a direct in to my Apollo twin(ch 1). From the J48 thru jack I send the signal to my pedalboard > mesa boogie > Torpedo Live > Apollo Twin(ch 2)
End up with a plain jane signal I can pass through plug ins(nolly or whatever) plus my main signal. Getting all the levels correct is a bit tricky at times but so far is pretty good.

Do you guys watch any infotainment type music channels? I always go down the rabbit hole of enthusiast channels when I pick up a new hobby. Last year it was bicycles, this year it's definitely been/going to be music.
Here are a few guitar focused channels I watch regularly. A lot of these people inspire me to want to play more. I'd be interested in finding more like them. As always with YouTube some are part entertainment, part sales, part educational information.
Rick Beato. Former music producer and educator. Plays multiple instruments. This guys enthusiasm when it comes to music is what made me pick up a guitar again. He has a series called 'What makes this song great' where he breaks down what he things makes songs popular from a music production standpoint. He also does videos on music theory and the industry.
Brad The Guitologist. Musician, amp & guitar tech. Plays multiple stringed instruments. Focuses mostly on vintage amp and guitar repair. Has a series called 'Shit Post Friday' where he talks about the music industry. Refreshingly non-PC.

The Trogly Guitar Show. Plays guitar. Online guitar seller specializing in Gibson's turned guitar documenter and maybe collector. He buys and sells guitars online and documents each one with a video. He specialized in Gibson but has branched out into Fenders and other guitars. And he named his show after Trogdor the burninator.

Phil Mcknight. Former store owner that made basses for a short time. Plays bass and guitar. He does a lot of gear demos and has many videos on guitar repair. Has a series of videos that is basically 'Pimp my ride' for guitars. Also does a weekly Q&A.

Big fan of Rick Beato, I even bought his book when he had a 40% off thing a month or so ago. I'd like to do his ear training course but also don't want to toss him $200 for it. I've checked out a lot on your list but see some I'll need to check out

Ola is great. He's our age, games hard core, and plays death metal. Sounds great

I got his book on the same sale and have been working through it, he's definitely earned the sale from all the entertainment I've gotten from his channel the last few months. But 200 is a lot more, will see if it goes down eventually. I know ear development is going to be hard to do long term. I stated doing an interval training app but it's very simplistic compared to what he has in his program.
I just started watching his channel. I like his playing and his positive attitude.

He's a great guy. I remember when he started just by doing amp demos and then blew up

Been working on my pedal steel sound out of my telecaster. I think I'm going to try to drop down string size from 10's to 9's. Lot of bends which I normally don't do a lot of of. Lot of full and half steps. The biggest improvement would come from more practice but we'll see.
Of course if I had a pedal steel guitar. Not that their that expensive just hard to find and even harder to find someone that plays it that could teach it.
Been going through some of those channels and checking them out. Thanks.
