Hey Guys. Mike passed away peacefully this morning surrounded by his family x - Andy
Andy, is there anywhere we can donate to Mike's family? I know the guitar community will want to rally round to take care of them. We're devestated at the news today.
i never met mike, didnt know him personally but watching his videos you could tell he was decent chap. wasnt in it for fame and money like a lot of youtubers. i watched this recent video just now cuz i havent seen anything from mike in a while and was choked up to see him. his disease took hold pretty quick and it was so sad to see, then i read through the comments to find out he passed away. ive never felt like this about anyone off of youtube that passed away but mike was good egg, 100%. gonna miss his videos, gonna miss him and his live streams. much love love to his family and friends and all those that knew him. say hi to jimi for us mike and ask him where his monterey guitar is x
Mike enjoyed watching gold diggers on tv, we all knew he was made of the purest gold known to man, 100% pure.
Deepest sympathies to all đą
So sorry to hear that. I offered him a stay is my holiday cottage in DevonâŠ..it would be my privilege if his family want to take up the offer.
Rest in peace Mike. You were one of the first youtubers i ever found or watched at 13. I'm now 24 and my life's been a rollercoaster to say the least. Thank you so fucking much for all the effort you put into your channel and videos, I'm sure there were good and bad days like everything and everyone else. I hope in the end it was worth everything and you got exactly what you wanted out of it, love and peace my friend â€ïž
Such sad news today ⊠Iâm not the first to say this and I wonât be the last - you were one of the good guys and will be sorely missed. My heart goes out to your family and friends. Rest in peace, Mike.
I couldn't say it any better
Very sad to read on Facebook that Mike lost his battle, he showed so much courage. Thanks for all your content through the years. My sincere condolences to the family. RIP.
So sad to hear of Mikes passing. He was such a shining light in this world and will be missed.
He kept up his positive attitude right until the end.
We all love you so much, Mike, and we are all pulling for you. Stay strong and I'm hoping for the best for your trip to London.
RIP Mike. You touched the lives of so many people in positive ways. We will miss you dearly.
Just heard this news today, so very sad, loved your enthusiasm for all things guitar, you were such a great bloke, God bless and condolences to your loved ones.
Just learnt about Mike's passing. So sorry to hear that. It's heartbreaking.
Thank you for being you!!! YOU WILL be MISSED. Save a seat for me! Can't wait to meet you!
We love you buddy and will keep lifting you and your family up in prayers. So good to see you on here and to be able to hear you speak thru the AI voice. God bless you my brother đđđž
RIP MikeâŠ. Life is so precious and it was more precious with you in it. Such a brave journey and share into ALSâŠ. God Speed MikeâŠ. You will be missed brother!!!
Unbelievable how quick this goes. So hard to watch this video, knowing you are no longer under us.
One of my doctors have diagnosed me with ALS a few years ago. Thank god it turned out to be wrong and im still here...feeling a lot better. But i remember well how i felt the months thinking i will go through this too one day. It took 3 months until i heard that i dont have it actually.
Anyway, i dont want to turn this into my story. Just saying, i can especially feel this loss, even not having seen many videos of you.
I wish the best to the family and friends involved, RIP Mike.
Your comments are so comforting and we are so grateful. He loved each and every one of you â€
he was one of the best on youtube. better than all those with millions of subscribers because we knew he cared for our input and opinions on all things guitar. hes gonna be missed.
I am so sorry to hear about Mike. That video broke my heart.May he Rest In Peace and my sincerest condolences to your family.
Just learned of mikes passing. So sad. You will be missed greatly. Thanks Mike for everything! đžđą
Good to hear your still fighting..all the best Mike
Man this has shocked me to the core. I loved Mike's videos in the Chinese guitars . I didn't even know he was ill as he always looked so full of life. RIP Mike đ
much love to all friends and especially his beautiful family. i am so very sorry for your loss- never ever met the dude, live half a world apart, but i felt like Mike was a mate.We could hang out in my room and nerd out on guitars alllllll day.
Goodnight Mike. The good ones always go first.
Thanks Mike, I been watching sailing videos, best of luck, love you, great ta see ya! Made my day!
I think I might need to come and help Andy - heâs sure to break something!!!
đ I'm sure I will! See you soon buddy x
so sorry to hear a devisting news he was such a kind man so sorry to hear this
So sorry to hear of Mikeâs passing. I thoroughly enjoyed many of his videos throughout the years and admired his optimism and determination regarding his ALS-diagnosis. He was one of the OG guitar CZcamsrs that will be missed by so many. Rest easy Mike! â€ïž
Rest in peace Mike. I wish your family and friends strength.
It's a sad day and we've lost a brother
I will always remember Mike and think of his incredible strength throughout his struggle with MND when I'm faced with challenges. I started watching CGS a bit before his diagnosis and continued to watch through his physical decline. It takes an incredibly strong man to share something like this with people he doesn't even know and all the while still making guitar related content
God Bless you brother
You will not be forgotten!
Much love đ and many đ coming your way beautiful music manâŁïžđđ¶đŠ
God bless Mike. Wishing you the best of luck...Hope it works to improve things for you lovely fella. Much love to you! :o) xx
RIP, such a beautiful person.
I just learned of Mike's passing a few minutes ago. So sad and sorry to hear this news. I've been keeping Mike and the family in my prayers continually. Sincerest condolences to the family and friends. Such a sweet man who gave so much to the guitar community. He will be greatly missed, but never forgotten. â€
So sad to hear from his passing, RIP â€
I was peg fed when I was being treated for throat cancer, I hope it helps you as it did me. Sending love & strength from my family to yours â€ïž
Funny,helpfull,caring and sincere...Those are the first words that come to mind. Thank you for everything. Rest well Mike.
Oh no đą so sad. CGS was one of the first YT channels I've started to follow and Mike always transmitted good energy.
Rest in peace Mike
When I was a young guitar player, I would watch your videos all night. I ended up buying a chibson myself. I wanted to say my condolences to your family and thank you for being a part of my young and fun guitar journey. Itâs so hard for me to come back Al these years and hear and see the news. Love you buddy. Fly to the angels my friend. Thanks for everything. Who knew taking the time to set up a camera and share your music journey could help and inspire so many. đ
Super impressed with that software that can generate Mike's voice. Very convincing.
I just saw that he'd passed. He certainly seemed to be one of the nicest people you'll meet. A great attitude through the years with his videos. I'm sure that he's missed terribly. My condolences to his family and friends...

Sorry to hear of Mike's passing very sad news. He seemed a really nice decent genuine guy. He would take the time to reply to all the comments on his videos. We know he's been battling this horrible condition for quite some time now and sadly the outcome was inevitable. But it's always a damn shame when the good guy's go down early. Condolences to Mikes family and friends including the CGS community. RIP Mike rock in peace brother.
