I love and play Kramer guitars as well as my amazing Frankenstraat guitar built by Dr Frankenstraat himself, old Marshall Super Leads and my 5150 combo. Great tone and phrasing are what I get off on!!!I was featured in Guitar World's Hometown Heroes and I am currently teaching guitar in Canton, Ohio as well as recording a new CD of instrumental guitar music that I hope will fuse my love of the many styles of rock and fusion guitar, as well as all the other music I enjoy.I started playing at 10 years old and really became serious after hearing Eddie Van Halen. He is still one of my favorite players. Yngwie and Holdsworth were huge influences a little later on. After those three I am influenced by a large and wide variety of players and music, including Greg Howe, Lynch, Gilbert, Stern, Shawn Lane, Scott Henderson, Jeff Beck, early Clapton, Vinnie Moore and Tony Macalpine, as well a lot of jazz and classical music. I love Miles, Parker and Coltrane and I listen to a lot of Classical music. I also love bands like Radiohead, Sigur Ros, Travis, Mogwai, Chris Cornell, Wilco, Jeff Tweedy and Pearl Jam.I edited my profile at Freeweblayouts.net , check out these Myspace Layouts!
