About me:

Musician/Multi Instrumentalist, but primarily a guitarist... Love all styles of music from Death Metal to bebop to the entire Zappa Catalog, of course... Am a huge Charlie Hunter/Tuck Andress/Martin Taylor/Joe Pass fan (the whole solo guitar movement, if you will....)

Love ZPZ and Dweezil, of course. Am working on some solo arrangements of some Zappa tunes for a potential solo guitar recording featuring some of my favorites...
