George Mangos - Guitarist

About Me

George Mangos, Guitarist- Occassional weekend rock star who's happy to go out and play for a good time then make enough pay the baby sitter! Enough about that... I have been playing for around 25 years. Influences include Jimi Hendrix, Eddie Van Halen, Dave Murray and Adrian Smith of Iron Maiden, Prince, Randy Rhoads, Zakk Wylde, Steve Clark, Ace Frehley, Warren DeMartini, John Taylor (bass), Paul McCartney (also bass), and many others spanning rock and soul. In my spare time, I enjoy letting a little soul flow and pick up the bass to get funky. I also enjoy playing many different types of music and have been entertaining folks since I was a kid walking from party to party in my Houston neighborhood with friends carrying my amp and guitar so I wouldn't be too tired to play once we got to where we were headed.George extends his apologies to all the girls he told he was 17 when he was really only 14.Equipment: Wayne Charvel, Fender and Epiphone guitars, DR guitar strings and a Flextone 2x12 combo with Marshall 1960 4x12 cabinet.
