I'm just another guitar-playing geezer who never became a star. Originally from Wisconsin, I now live in Atlanta Georgia.

Band/artist history

Digging WAY back... Anyone remember a central Wisconsin band named "Tourque?"

Have you performed in front of an audience?

I play live only a handful of times each year. And it's typically a private gathering, or a Jam with local friends from the Fender Discussion Page.

Your musical influences

My earliest influences include Ritchie Blackmore, Lee Pickens, John Nitzinger & Robin Trower. Later-on I also became a big fan of Gary Moore, Yngwie, and Vinnie Moore. Lately I've discovered Kelly Simonz. Look him up, he's amazing...

What equipment do you use?

I'm pretty much a Strat player, though I have owned many Gibson guitars along-the-way. Most of my Strats are customized to my own liking. I enjoy changing pickups... I own a few amps, but my main amp is a 1982 Fender Concert that has been modified quite a bit.

Sensational guitar playing with a nice jazzy/blues backing track that we all love so well. Really enjoyed your licks...Nice tone & texture with flare...
