I've been playing for around 31 years now; mainly fingerstyle though all the bands I was ever in were good 'ole rock bands: KISS, Van Halen, Rush etc.
My dad got me onto Chet Atkins, Roy Clark and Jerry Reed back around 1978-ish and as such I've had the pleasure of hearing some great players over the years.
I love to learn new ways to see/hear the same thing we all know...it only seems to reinforce or shed new lights so I am really enjoying watching the various instructors here.
