Band to Join, Vocalist - Baritone, Vocalist - Tenor, Bass Guitar, Drums, Keyboard, Piano.ABOUT
I have been playing guitar for over 10 years now and am very comfortable in ability to improvise where necessery. I have great timing and ability to change. I write a lot of modern blues songs in the style of Chris Duarte, Joe Bonamassa, Robben Ford, Walter Trout etc. I am very big on keeping songs simple and not over filling with riffs as it distracts people from the song (made that mistake in an old band). I have a degree in music production and have a good home recording set up. I am big on tone. My sound is dark and moody. I can play a wide variety of music but lean more towards blues rock. I can play fast but prefer to avoid it were possible.

EQUIPMENT
I play a Gibson Melody Maker Special and a Les Paul Junior that i built myself. I also have an epiphone dot, an ozark resonator, Lap steel, Ibanez PF acoustic and a couple of spanish guitars.
I run two amps simultaneously, Marshall JCM2000 and Bugera V55HD. These go through two Eminence Delta Pro12A speakers.
Pedals I go into a Boss TU2 >Crybaby Wah > EHX LPB-1 > Biyang Tremolo (always on) > Bass Big muff (used as a splitter. distorted sound goes to the Bugera head and the clean to the Marshall). Through the effects loop of the marshall i use a Boss DD7 with expression pedal to control effect mix.
