Howdy git-wranglers. My name is Trevor Ross and I live in Humboldt, SK Canada. I've been playing guitar since I was 11 or 12, though concentrated on bass for the first few years. Played with friends, family and a couple of local bands, then moved away to college, got a job, married, kids etc. etc.
So 20 years later a fell in with 3 other guys in the same boat as me. Wanting to play music after ALL these years, but without the pressure of wanting to be famous, get a record contract etc. So we started up a little band, and you know what? we're actually pretty good. I'm playing lead(ish) guitar for the first time ever, so I'm trying to glean as much info as I can (when I can).
Currently have a Peavey Generation EXP tele-style guitar. Cheapie, but has decent tone. Looking for something else to add though. Something different than the usual LP/Strat/Tele axe. Any suggestions? I also have an old Yammy FG-160E that my Dad gigged with lots back in the day. Lotsa dings and lumber missing on the soundboard. Nicknamed "Trigger" after Willie Nelson's guitar. Digitech RP-80 multi-effects pedal and a Vox AD30DT give me tons of tones and effects to play with. Playing country and rock (crock :rolleyes: ), lots of 80's and standards, and having the time of my life.
Looking forward to chatting with everyone here.
KEEP ON ROCKIN' IN THE FREE WORLD!
