I am a Classic Rock - Blues - Alternative/Modern Rock guitar player. Originally from Chicago's southwest side near Midway airport. I've been playing in bands and have been around music professionally for over 20 years. Making my way through the big hair 80's as a bass player, I began mixing live bands and eventually landed a job with a guitar amplifier company. While continuing to work in the music industry I am heading up the retail Internet sales operation for LoudspeakersPlus.Com .
A few of my greatest inspirations have been Albert King, Angus Young and Richie Sambora. As well as, Brian May, Gilby Clarke, Keith Scott (Bryan Adams), Jimmie Vaughan and his little brother Stevie.
Here's the basic rig as of today: a 1991 Gibson Les Paul Studio, Gretsch Synchromatic (les paul style) and Fender Telecaster guitars played through a 1982 Marshall JCM 800 4104. The Pedal Board - Boss Chromatic tuner, MXR Super Comp, MXR Micro Amp, a Robert Keeley moded Boss BD-2 Blues Driver, Barber LTD Overdrive, a Barber LTD Silver and a Wah. I also have a 1983 Marshall JCM 800 4104 & 1983 Marshall JCM800 4010 guitar amps.
