    Default Howdy from California

    Hi everyone. My name is Shane and I'm a guitaraholic. lol

    My main influences are probably Rush, Iron Maiden, Van Halen, Metallica, James Taylor, Tommy Emmanuel, Triumph, Django Reinhardt, James Burton, Joe Satriani, George Lynch, Slash, Clapton and Villa Lobos.

    Most of my gear is already listed in my sig.

    Other than guitars I like working out, outdoor sports, movies and reading.

    Um...I'm not sure what else to say.

    Sure. What did you want to see? These are all I have right now:







    The picture of the telecaster is actually linked to another site. I don't know if that's ok or not but if it isn't then please remove it or let me know and I'll remove it.

    I no longer have the acoustic in the last picture. I gave it to my cousin since I bought my Larrivee. I have a few other things like a Zoom G9 that aren't shown that I like to use for practice.

    It wasn't too bad today. about 85 degrees. A few days ago it was over 100 degrees for a couple days though. I'm guessing you're from somewhere in California?
