I play lead and rhythm guitar to include acoustic/electric bottleneck and acoustic flatpicking. Have nice tone and rig. Draw from deep well of blues, folk, country, and jazz. Big jam band fan. Like musicians who have soul, can improvise, and take you somewhere on a solo. I would be keen to form a band and/or record with some like minded musicians. Can write a bit and certainly lay down fills, solos, etc. for songwriting recording musicians.
