About Me

my name's carl. la di da da. i play the guitar and when feelin' funky, the bass. i can read a little bit of sheet music. i write songs. i like writing my own music rather than listening to music. i can't sing that well. i don't like to sing, i avoid it most of the time, unless the song i am covering or writing needs singing to complete it. i was in two bands. one lasted 2 days. the other lasted 6 months. i can't classify music for the life of me. i'm buying a new guitar soon. epiphone les paul (color still undecided). i use a fender amp. oh, and i can drive.

equipment used:
epiphone les paul jr.
epiphone les paul standard plus
aria acoustic guitar
fender frontman amp
