I am Bundy, loud and proud. I play Carvin guitars and amps exclusively because I want the best instruments for my individualistic musical expression. Right now I'm playing in a Modern Rock band, but as time allows I will post my original material here, and possibly soundclips of my gear as well.

Story behind the song
Carvinite collaboration: KOR (rhy, lead gtrs, main composer), LizzyD (bass gtr, ultimately saved the mix!), Levelhead (drums), Bundy (lead gtr), Spring 2005. With the permission of Tony Campisi (composer), I have decided to dedicate this beautiful song to my 15-year old son Nelson, who passed away on 25 May 2006. Nelson actually helped me punch in my parts while recording this song; thus, he should rightfully receive engineering credit. My solos are at 0:40-1:19 and at 1:39-1:59. Tony and I play together at the end (2:20 to finish); I am playing the higher guitar part and fill(s). UPDATE: 11 May 2007. As the anniversary of my son's passing approaches, I've "revisited" this song. Last August the wonderful people of the Carvin Corporation, the Carvin Museum BBS, and the Carvin BBS had a special guitar built as a tribute to Nelson Skyler. The guitar is a beautiful Sapphire Blue Contour 66 (Nelson's favorite color) that bears his name and I've used it to add harmony lines to my solo at 0:40-1:19. I am proud to dedicate my meager talents to you Nelson, my loving son. You will forever be in my heart, thoughts, and in my musical soul.
