Hi, my name is Daniel Stromland and I've been playing guitar for 15 years and seek to further my experience in the professional world of music. I'm adept at jazz, rock, funk and blues and have serviceable knowledge in many other genres as well. What I bring to the table includes; a laser focused work ethic, the ability to listen intently but to also give productive input when necessary, being able to show up on time and prepared to each and every gig I get, and exceptional improvisational ability both as a soloist and with interacting with my band mates as an accompanist. If these traits are something desired for in a band, then I have no doubt I will be able to fill that void

EQUIPMENT
Guitars: Cream Yellow Fender Stratocaster, Warrior custom 335 model, Fender Telecaster, Cherry Gibson Les Paul, Ibanez Floyd Rose tremolo, and ibanez AF151F are my favorites to use but I also have numerous other guitars.
Amps: Primarily the Vox VT80+ but also a Fender Twin Reverb
Pedals: a volume pedal, a distortion pedal, and a delay pedal/looper. I mostly rely on preamp settings for my guitar but I'm working on diversifying my pedal board as well.
