He launched his Youtube channel in 2010. The channel currently has over 1.8 million subscribers and garnered over 4 million views. In 2016, he uploaded an “If Eminem Was Metal” video which garnered over 300,000 views in just 3 days.

He returned from his YouTube hiatus with a new track called Demogorgon.
The Djent Scam 2017
In 2017, Jared Dines was scammed while making a video titled Djent 2017. On October 17, 2017, he ordered a 17-string guitar from Olson Guitarworks which he planned to use for his video at the ‘era.
Olson Guitarworks had claimed to be in guitar making and had built many guitars for people in the past. He promised to make Dines a 17 string guitar for this video and charged him just over $1000. To start, Jared paid him $1,200 to build the guitar. He would later find out that Nicholas was not a guitar builder at all but had ordered the guitar from a Chinese website and it only cost him $400.
The photos Nicholas sent Jared that showed him “building” the guitar were actually faked because they were just photos of cut-out door pieces.
Jared Dines made a video exposing Olson’s Guitarworks scam and apologizing to his fans who were waiting for his 2017 Djent project. He also expressed his desire to still get the 17-string instrument and called out anyone who would make him a legit 17 string guitar to advance as he promised to pay for it and will be very grateful as it will help him achieve his project..
After the scam was exposed, Olson Guitarworks ceased production and deleted all social media accounts.
Dines finally continued with his “Djent 2017” video but with a new name – 17 guitars. A real Australian guitar company named “Ormsby Guitars” contacted him and built him a real 18 string guitar for his “Djent 2018” project which was unveiled at NAMM 2018.
