About Me


I'm a Computer Technician and I play electric guitar for fun in my spare time to relax and SHRED the work stress away. A first generation American, my father was born on the beautiful Greek island of Chios. I enjoy family life with my wife Greta, daughters Stefanie and Athena, and our house cats Theo and Xena. Can you believe our daughters were both born on the same day 5 years apart? Don't ask me how! Here is a vintage picture of me from 1984:
I now play a Fender Standard Stratocaster electric guitar, with a 21 fret rosewood fingerboard and 3 single coil pickups. I'm currently using a Roland Cube-20X modeling amp with a Boss FS-6 Dual Footswitch. My favorite amp tone setting is Bass=3, Middle=8, and Treble=6 using an Overdrive effect. I like using Dunlop Tortex 1.14mm guitar picks. My optional effects pedal arsenal includes the Boss DS-1 Distortion for Classic Rock, and DOD YJM308 Overdrive for Yngwie Malmsteen's signature sound. I also have an older Marshall MG15CD practice amp. My guitar looks like this in a Midnight Blue (indigo) Satin finish:
I also like playing 3D shooter games. In preparation for the new game Unreal Tournament 3, I got a powerful Gateway FX530 Gaming PC with a fast Nvidia GeForce 8800GTX graphics card like the one in the picture below:

    My Guitar God
Yngwie J. Malmsteen

Yngwie Malmsteen (pronounced Ing-Vay) is a Swedish born guitarist who came to America in the early 1980's. He set the rock world on its ear with his trademark neoclassical style, combining hard rock with classical elements such as from Bach and Paganini. His first solo album Rising Force was nominated for a Grammy in 1984. While many fans regard him as a virtuoso rock guitarist, Yngwie views himself more as a composer in the classical sense. He writes all the music for his band to play. Yngwie even wrote a complete instrumental Concerto he performed with a classical orchestra. He also plays bass guitar on all of his recordings. Yngwie's complete command of guitar and the music he plays has earned him the title of Maestro by his fans. There have been many imitators since but still only one Yngwie J. Malmsteen!
