Influences

Simple answer - classic rock.

Short answer - Page and Lukather, because they were notable session guitarists of their eras; the chameleons of their craft.

Geek answer - I try to learn at least one thing from as many people as possible, eg Page, Beck, Wes Montgomery, Jim Hall, Jon Scofield, EVH, Jimi, Vai (philosophy), Satch (discipline), Lukather (imagine being so good you could hang up on Michael Jackson 3 times), Holdsworth, Malcolm Young (rhythm genius), Kiss, SRV, Frank Zappa (how do people get to even think like that?).

EQUIPMENT

Guitars - sufficient.

Whatever the gig needs or serves the material best, ranging from Marshall stereo rack for rock or Boogie combo for jazz.

Objective - sounds that don't hurt.
