About
Short version: Guitarist obsessed with technology & the web with a background in beer, blues and 80′s rock/metal. This site is about everything guitar, hope you find the information helpful.
Long version:
Born in India and moved to England January ’08. Growing up around musicians it was only natural that I pick up an instrument sooner or later. It started off with the school band which was a whole lotta fun while it lasted. After school I played with my share of pop, rock and metal bands (mostly 80′s music). I was never too serious about guitar so I was an average musician for most of my playing years. My musical journey was a blast though, as I got to play with some talented musicians and forged good friendships along the way.
It was not until I stopped playing in a band that I started to get serious about guitar and music theory. Late ’07 I found the inspiration to start playing again (after Satriani’s “Super Colossal”), resurrected my old guitar tech site after 6 years and here I am! How far I’ll go this time I don’t know, but I’m keen on playing in an 80′s rock and metal tribute band. I’m also working on finishing up tunes I’ve written over the years.
Musical influences:
Paul Gilbert – Racer X, Mr.Big

…add some jazz, blues, Van Halen, AC/DC, Whitesnake, Skid Row, Morbid Angel, Hammerfall, Metallica, COB, Arch Enemy, even ABBA (hah!) and a list of glam bands ;)
That’s it about me!
