I’m an early retired college professor who’s been playing music for over 45 years. I like a lot of the typical things that the man my age would like, Bob Dylan & The Band, The Beatles, etc. but I have more depth than that into more obscure great writers, as well as world, music, and rhythms. I also would like to be in a group that collaborates to write new music. I played multiple gigs with a local band called the Beagle Brothers for eight years. More recently couple of gigs a year.

EQUIPMENT
I have a few fender, electric guitars, mostly solid body, though I have a couple of arch tops. Mesa, boogie, as well as fender ramps. I don’t do much with outboard electronics except some compression, and occasionally distortion. I like the sound and tones of Fender guitars with great tube amps
