ABOUT

Too many years playing, too little actually learned. The usual story. I still love penning original music and prefer playing it when the time and the band is right but I also love getting together with like-minded people and belting out tracks from the past hundred years or more; sometimes actually hitting the right notes.
Looking to jam/gig locally just to keep the madness alive.

EQUIPMENT

Too many to list but my preferred weapons of choice are

* my trusty Warmoth Strat with DG20 pickups,
* my Squier Jazzmaster,
* my Rickenbacker 340,
* my Epiphone Nighthawk, and my
* Reverend 390 Jetstream.
I run them through my Blackstar Club HT 40w or the modelling Fender Mustang 100w.
And I'm still something of a multi-effects junkie, favouring the Headrush, the Zoom G5N (don't knock it till you've tried it) and some of the older guit synths like the VG99 and GR300.
