Hey guys,

New to the site, been working with it bout a month and a week now. Still learning to nav around it. My playing suffers a bit due to 5 herniated disks in my back, 2 being in my neck, muscle and nerve damage in my shoulder and right are. Nothing to horrible for a guitarist, huh?

I've been playing since the early 80's hair metal days, 41 this year, aside from a decade or so hiatus from playing, I play now cause I love it...I love it so much, I build alll of my own guitars and am starting a small Custom Building Shop soon, and all on disibility. It will be small cause it takes me longer to do a guitar than when i was healthy, but its something I love doing, and living in Nashville, I think of it as trining if I am ever released to go back to work...Gibson here I come!!!

I was always a Rhythm player, I did leads when i was showed them, but now want to learn what Ive been playing all these years. Ive been watching this site grow for a while and finally took the plunge. I may post a lot til I get used to navigating the site and hopefully get familiar to what I am doing and how to get to where I want to be, so If anyone can help on that, Thaks in advance. You can see some of my work through the link at the bottom of the post.

Good to meet everyone, If I can ever help out anyone with technical knowledge, beginners or just starter uppers, Just pop me a message, that is something I can help out with and make some kind of contribution for others helping me.

Peace,
-J
