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.
