Influences
SRV, Robin Trower, Santana, Clapton, BB, Ritchie Blackmore & Hendrix. I play covers and my own originals. Have great timing, elegant phrasing and the melodies in my own work carry all the way through, creating complete pieces. My style is not a mimic, though the closest similarity would be Hendrix but a fusion of all my influences, which creates my own unique style. Hate to have to say it myself but I'm pretty good.
Instrument experience:

EQUIPMENT
Marshall half stack, 60th anniversary Strat from the custom shop - a L efty with the nuts flipped for RH playing, the influence should be obvious. Not too into pedals but I use an Octavia & Wahwah, investing in a vocal harmoniser, SM 58, stands, leads etc.
