Influences
My Influences range quite a bit. From country, to classic rock, classical, metal, pop, classical spanish. Alot of 50's music Inspired me. Elvis being at the top of that list. When It boils down to It. Blues Is what Is at the core of me, and my playin. It's the essence of everything I do. Stevie Ray Vaughan Is my biggest Influence for doing what I do. And why I do It. Jimi Hendrix, Albert King, Gary Moore, Jeff Healey, Charlie Sexton, Joe Bonamassa, dereck trucks, Buddy Guy. The list goes on. all the Blues greats.. plus a few new exceptional guitarists who do there best to carry the flame.
EQUIPMENT
I have a Silvertone acoustic. And my electric Is a Fender Squire Bullet Strat. My Amp Is a Peavy Viper. One from the Viper series that was discontinued. No pedals at the moment. My rig Is small for now.. to give my Amp more power I've been hookin a Bluetooth mini speaker Into It. to give It that extra boost.. boy does It help.. I use heavy strings. preferably 11 gauge. I also like to tune half a step down. to give It more of an edge. my equipment Is minimal. but that doesn't mean I don't play my heart out.
