Meet Aaron Rash: the YouTuber who's got so close to Kurt Cobain's Nirvana tones he's releasing a guitar and In Utero IR pack to share his discoveries

Kurt Cobain / Aaron Rash.

Born in California, growing up in Texas and now based in Seattle, Aaron Rash is a man of many talents and many of these have benefitted his YouTube channel, where he's gone deeper into Kurt Cobain's Nirvana tones than anyone else we've encountered. "I do a lot of electronics work like building amps, and microphones and preamps and EQs," he tells us via Zoom from his home studio space. "I've been an electronics nerd my whole life. So I spend most of my time doing that."

Although he listened to Nirvana from a young age, Aaron produced hip-hop in Houston for a while – we did say he was multi-talented – and producing a few promo music videos during that period of his life seemed to have honed his obvious skill for cinematography that helps make his guitar videos so engaging. The David Fincher fan shoots and edits all his channel's videos himself, but he admits his high standards can be a double-edged sword.
