I am a lefty with I love to have fun if music is no fun why even play iam very appreciative of everything that I have cause in 2017 I got thrown out of a piece of heavy machinery and literally broke my neck from the top of my spice to about the middle no iam not a junkie I dont even take pain medicine for my pain I just work through it on the fretboard I love to learn new things and I dont work iam on ssi and that gives me time for my passions like music and building guitars and listening to music I used to build houses and I also mix music I got a small portable but mainly home studio I love to enjoy new experiences and am able to adapt to rather brisk situational change ups I love to make music or iam listening to it or iam mixing something on the board and laptop I have my own gear I don't need loaners lmao like most people I have met like singers who need to use my Mic or another guitarist who 'just because its so prevalent I keep a few righty strung electrics' need to use my gear to jam iam not a bum for sure and I love to jam into infinity and write and record as well and I have my own drummer slash mixdowns and studio production guy I live with what we have jam spaces and recording spaces in the same place separated by floor I live up on the jam floor which is the 2nd floor but I keep my small studio equipment there and he resides on the first floor he has his own studio equipment so no conflict between the two separate spaces and I always use my manners but iam fun and do have a sailors vocab when it's not offensive that is but iam very dedicated to projects that arise be it to build a guitar or to play one with those who choose to be here or by myself but I have some really cool stuff I would love to collab or whatever else I come across iam colton and I love music to the core!!!
