About Me

I've been in music since I was 6. I played drums for years until my set fell apart and I traded it for a Les Paul copy. I've been playing guitar and bass ever since. I have a degree in practical music and another in applied electronics. I've been to the National Guitar Workshop and also to the Kendrick Amp Camp.I'm presently designing and building custom effects for guitar and bass players.I'm featured in Guitar Player October 2006 in the distortion pedal shoot out.I've played mostly Rock, Blues, and Metal. I prefer psychodelic and long jam stuff.

Influences: Frank Marino, Jimi Hendrix, SRV, Robin Trower, Rush, Yes, The Who, KISS, Black Sabbath, Steve Vai, GWAR.

They are proud of what they are and determined to statisfy their fanbase and that's what this is about.
