ABOUT
I play guitar.... ummm I'll sing if I have to. I love to play music and I've been doing it for a long time. I've played in various bands and various styles - rock, country, blues, and jazz.
I love to play jazz because it challenges me the most, but I love rock and blues because I can just let loose and play.
I've been playing long enough to not take myself too seriously but I play music passionately - most of the time.

EQUIPMENT
Personally, I have a wood thingy with wires attached and electronic stuff (stuff - that's the technical term).
Another wood thingy with wires, but this one has a hole in the middle? I think its broke. :(
Amp - its square with lights and knobs and buttons and little holes. its sort of clean yet fuzzy sounding???
Other amps that I built... well just because the other one was fuzzy sounding.
I have a Marshall and a Fender, but it's the Dumble clone I built that is my favorite - building tube amps is one of my hobbies.
I have some of these things on the ground and they click when I step on them and some of them have pretty lights - LED lights.
Ok ok ya got me - building effect pedals is another hobby of mine.
