I've been playing religilously for 3 years now. I'm currently 22 years old and am absolutely addicted to guitar. I first decided to pick it up after watching stevie ray vaughan live @ the el mocambo. I followed that with paul gilberts terrifying guitar trip, its been love ever since :).
What gear do you use?
i use a non trem arm Ltd Deluxe EC-1000, its connected to my left arm. My back up is a PRS Custom 24 SE model, i also love it. For acoustics i use a Ovation Baladier.
Who was your biggest musical influence growing up?
For my bluesy side it was always Stevie Ray Vaughan and Jimi Hendrix. Later i got into Santana and guys like Bonamassa and John Mayer. For my other side, it was Metallica, Ozzy, Maiden and guys like that. When i picked up guitar i found guys like Paul Gilbert, Satch, Vai, Timmons, Loomis and numerous others like Glenn Proudfoot etc.
You're stuck on a desert island and only get to bring one album with you. What do you pick?
