Over 45 years of guitar experience in multiple genres (folk, rock, country, jazz) . Seeking advanced/intermediate advanced guitar skills/bass player; Rhythm players are great, good vocals a huge plus; Harmonic, a huge plus! Have original songs and willing to write/collaborate with willing partners. Electrics fine, where they add to the acoustic main focus. Covers/Classic Rock fine, from some specific artists (Petty). Very interested in bass player who loves blues and instrumentals.
