Music/Guitar

I've been playing guitar since I was about 14 years old. I played  bass guitar in bar bands for over 25 years. In 1997 I hung up the band thing but I continue to enjoy playing my guitars.  Playing the guitar is great therapy and can quickly turn a bad day into a forgotten afterthought.

I consider myself an average guitar player but I continue to try and learn and improve.  I recently purchased a Line 6 Spider Jam amplifier and it has opened a whole new realm of guitar playing for me. You see this amplifier is essentially a 'band-in-a-box'. I can finally practice with my own band (without all the egos!)

My main musical interests are blues & classic rock
