Talking Guitar World Youtube Page Hacked

Looks like Russian hackers are flooding Youtube with this stuff today - dont click links in any videos that you dont trust, and dont go to any unknown websites.

Some of the comments are really funny for sure. Like the Pinch harmonics one and,

"This guitar should be easy to keep in tune since it only has a G-string..."

"Russian guitars look so funny"

"what pickups are on these? seymours?"

"Mama always told me playing guitar would make me go blind  :-("



Just make sure you dont click on a link from the video or go to the address listed in the videos, or you will probably get a virus.
