About Me

Well I was born here in Albuquerque, NM, Actually Corrales and moved to El Paso when I was 12. While in El Paso, I met my wife Bethany, the greatest woman in the world. We got married and moved back to Albuquerque. I am a Surgical Technologist, which means i work in the Operating Room assisting surgeons. I have been playing guitar for 13 years now. I have a Gibson Les Paul Standard, a Schecter S-1 Elite, a Minarik Inferno, a Minarik Goddess, a Dean '79 series Z, a Schecter Avenger, a BC Rich Warlock, a Schecter Tempest Custom, a Taylor 514-C acoustic guitar, and a Dean Exotica FM acoustic guitar. I use Line 6 Amplification and effects with a Line 6 HD-147 Amp head connected to a Line 6 4x12 slant cabinet, and a Line 6 4x12 straight cabinet. I'm always looking for people to jam, so if you're interested Hit me up. I am the Minarik guitar representative for the Albuquerque area, so if you like the guitars, want to know more about them, or want to buy one hit me up.
