- About me
I'm a guitarist who has recently also branched out in to drums. I love Rock, Blues, Funk and singer-songwriter stuff too.
Although I first picked up a guitar over 16 years ago it is only in the last couple of years that I have taken it remotely seriously. I was lucky enough to attend the 2007 International Guitar Festival (IGF) and this gave me the confidence to join my first band at age 35 !
I spend too much time and money obsessing over gear. Big surprise huh? :-)- From
