All things guitar, from playing to building, that's where it's at for me! Other areas interest include electronics, computers, multitudes of music, recording, photography, swimming, camping, and most any activity that involves nature!
Other inspired musicians of all styles with which we can communicate solely through our music. Everyone has something to teach, as well as something to learn. Having accepted that, what are we waiting for?
