ABOUT

Hard working, focused Rhythm guitarist. Not just average. Extremely Fast and technical. Most people think that a rhythm guitarist is just someone not as good as a lead player, but i take a different philosophy. I believe rhythm guitar work, is on a field of its own and I have specialized in it since i started playing. I was never impressed with fancy solos, but i was impressed with writing, flow, and making a harmony with all the instruments. I specialize in Metal(power, thrash, etc.). I write music for two guitars usually and work very well with other guitarists. I've worked very hard to get to where i am today, and have been waiting patiently to find the right people to play with. I feel music is an expression, not an image. I like music that combines art forms(literature, etc.). Looking for good people to play with and vocalist who can sing, not just scream. I have a mp3 on here. Its just messing around, showcases some of my picking work. Not everything in it, but gives the general idea of what i do.

EQUIPMENT

-I currently run my old Fender 25R using the external speaker jack to an old SUNN bass cab with 18"s in it. Hits like a monster on palm mutes.
-My guitar, i traded in a top of the line warlock for a 150 buck epiphone explorer that sounds way better.
Equipment sounds good. most people don't believe it until they hear it.

I'm looking at a Mesa Triple Rectifier, and an ESP EC-1000 deluxe with those beautiful EMG 81's in it.
