Influences
I have many influences so bear with me. The first big influences were all Classic and Southern Rock like: Lynyrd Skynyrd, .38 Special, Ted Nugent, REO Speedwagon, etc... and from there I went to more of the 80's Metal scene: Iron Maiden, Queensryche, Scorpions, Dio, Ozzy etc... In my first years playing I learned alot of Alternative like: STP, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Matchbox 20, etc... Most of this I just do acoustically now.
EQUIPMENT
2007 Gibson Les Paul Classic Custom, 2007 Fender Stratocaster (American), 1999 Ibanez RG320QX, 2001 Takamine Jumbo 12-string Electric/Acoustic, Marshall TSL100 Head w/ 1960B cabinet. The head has been modified with JJ KT-77 Power Tubes and a matching pair of preamp tubes. The speakers from the cabinet have been switched for Celestion Vintage 30's. I also have an entire PA (mains, subs, power amps, mixer, compressor, crossover, power conditioner, fx unit, dual 15-band eq, you name it I probably have it). The only PA gear that I have not acquired are monitors and that's because I have lived in Europe for the last 4 years and wasn't about to pay the ridiculous prices for monitors here.
