I'm a 34 year-old (35 this month...ugh) IT consultant who thinks that he can play guitar. I'm married and have a 9 year-old son and a 2 year-old daughter.
I started on guitar at 27, out of pure boredom. I bought a book, a Hamer Slammer DA3 Strat replica, and a Vox AC-1 amp. I still have those with me! So it's been a rocky road, learning by myself, but it's been a lot of fun too!
My current gear includes:
2000 MIM Fender Telecaster
2005 Squier '51
1998 Danelectro 56-U2
1999 SX SLP Jr
1960's Danelectro Convertible
1970's Kay K2
Amptramp BF-10 custom tube amp
Vox Pathfinder 15 SS amp
1970's Yamaha TA-20 SS amp
Morley Bad Horsie 2 wah
Fat Boy Fuzz
Boss DS-1
Johnson J-Station
And other odds and ends...I play mostly blues, punk, or both at the same time.
:DR

Hey, kerc! Welcome to the Fret. I think you're going to like it around here. (Though you're not going to get a lot of sympathy about your age. Many of us around have a few years on you, me included. :rolleyes:)
You have a lot of gear. Which do you find you use the most?

Welcome Kerc. Don't worry about you age. We will switch the numbers around and you will fit in nicely.

Thanks for the welcome!
blogan - I mostly play the '51 or the Tele,through the Pathfinder. I have them on stands on my living room (bless my wife!) so that when I wanna noodle for a while, I just plug in and go!
Tim - Hehehe, actually, age is just a number! ;)
SuperSwede - Pancake man? :O
duhvoodoman - We could share ideas eventually...I've been a little rusty lately!

Thanks guys! Hey, Robert, Teles and 51s are just great axes. I also dig Strats a lot...I guess I'm a Fender guy 101%.

Welcome, blues punkster Kerc! Always glad to have youngsters around. I've learned more from pickers showing me what they've "just learned" than you'd ever imagine. :D
