Hi there – some artists are more letigious than others (I’ve heard about the Eagles before) but I’ve posted plenty of covers and all that happens is they get copyright tagged and any monetisation would then go to the artists who own the copyright. I cannot see any reason why that is a problem to an artist. I suspect that this is a bot searching YouTube and flagging eveything that comes up whether it is commercial, or in this case an innocent guitar player just posting to friends. So ridiculous but YouTube has never knowingly been transparent and fair. People get strikes against their accounts for the most ridiculous things.
