    Thumbs up Hey there.

    Hey from Florida. I'm David. I'm 17 years old and have been playing guitar for almost 6 years. I have 4 guitars (Squier Mini Stratocaster, Epiphone Les Paul Standard, Squier Acoustic 3/4 Size, and an Epiphone Limited Edition Special II with gold hardware.) I mainly play blues and classic rock. Have always had a good feel for it. I'm just getting into the different modes, staring with Dorian mode. I do some recording; I've been working on an album for a while now, off and on. If anyone would like to talk, I'm here

    Thanks everyone. And I'm sorry about my very vague question, rofl. I'm in a bluesy mood today though and I don't know why. :P
