ABOUT
I'm an experienced guitar player, both live and studio work, looking to join a function or tribute band. I can play many different styles and have wide musical tastes. I pride myself on being able to play what its required for the song and recreating the requisite sounds to go with it.

EQUIPMENT
I mainly play Strats, and Tele's, but I also have a selection of other styles of guitar (depending on the needs of the band/song). I have a selection of different pedalboards and am comfortable playing either with backline or ampless, as seems to be the demand for a lot of venues these days, and my setups are designed to work straight for FOH or in a traditional way into an amp. I tend to use Fender style amps.
