My name is Khaled Ahmad and I play Jazz Guitar out here in Orange, CA.Band/artist history
I've been playing guitar for almost 2 and a half years. I began improvising on the guitar a year and a half ago by playing over blues progressions and began to experiment with modal jazz songs about 8 months ago. I've been playing over standard jazz tunes with complex chord progressions for only a few months.Have you performed in front of an audience?I play with the Orange Coast College Jazz Improv class and sometimes I play at "Steamer's Cafe" in Fullerton at their Sunday Night Jam session.

An orange Carvin guitar. To record onto my computer, I set up my amp next to the computer microphone, and record with Aebersold backgrounds or with Band-in-a-Box. Nothing fancy.Anything else?
