About Me

Hey it's me, Wietze a.k.a. The Steel Samurai a.k.a. (Mr.) Urai.
I was born in 1980 in Lelystad, The Netherlands. After 18 years I moved to Amersfoort, the geological center of The Netherlands. And I love it there!
I sell musical instruments for a living and play the guitar in the crossover metal band Born Loco and the cyberpunk formation Resistor .
This is the gear I use in my bands:
- Jackson Dinky with a Seymour Duncan LiveWire Metal pickup
- custom painted Ibanez RG-550 with an EMG 81 pickup
- Peavey 5150 II amp head
- Marshall 1960A cab
- Boss effect pedals
- Ernie Ball strings
- Shure wireless system
- Dunlop picks
