I started playing guitar when I was 14. By 21 I was in an original heavy metal band playing the South Florida club scene in the late 80s early 90s.
Eventually we became a cover band as there was more money in that than being an unsigned metal band.
I did walk away from it when I left Florida for career reasons.
As of the last decade I've picked it up again and I've been mostly recording covers by myself for fun and to get my chops back. I am an experienced singer although my range is not enormous. I'm a solid guitar player and can play bass as well and can bullshit my way on the keyboard if the song in question is simple enough.

I have a Goldtop Les Paul, a Strat and a Barretta as well as a Squire Jazz bass.
I have a decent pedal board as well and a small Line 6 practice Amp but for the right situation I will invest in a bigger better combo Amp for live performance.
