Rick Beato actually did an interview with him some months back and decided not to publish it because the guy couldn`t play.
Seems the guy not only took other peoples songs and put them up as his own (collecting the ad revenue) but also sold the tabs (again collecting the money). From what I gathered, the thing he did on YT is small fry compared to the instragramm, where he has/had a much bigger following.

What I fail to understand is: how could this Giacomo get 2 million views whereas the same, original, track only gets 57 views? This difference seems way too large to be understood from track quality alone (which, after all, should have been equal or at least similar in both cases).
It proves that Youtube's algorithm just sucks. On top of that, Youtube's "copyright protection" (that is known to unfairly punish many creators with very few options to successfully contest it) actually didn't do anything to protect the original creators - completely useless crap.
Once again I'm thoroughly disgusted at the state of "big tech" and their unwillingness to fix their crappy systems unless a lot of money is involved.

Outside "sponsoring" from BIG labels, many "little" ones have sent him pedals or instruments for having some "promotions" trought his videos.
He mostly did some (no quality) quick shots for them. but when they came back to him for a better second video, he asked them a lot of money.
Then, when they asked him to bring back their stuff he used to say "It will pay the video I've already done"... and most of the time he has sold the stuff.
A french luthier was concerned
And Yes, he was fluently active on Instagram more than YouTube.
Stealth more original "solo" lines or arangements than original songs and it's hard to believe he was a "live recorded" musician
