Although I've posted a few times here, I felt I should introduce myself. I'm Tank (it started out as a nickname when I was 6, but it grew, and eventually everyone calls me that now.....I have friends who don't even know my real name..very strange). I've been playing my trusty Fender strat for over 15 years now and my major influences are Clapton, Vai, Vaughn and many others. Lets see, I also teach Karate (4th degree master rank...pretty cool huh?). I look forward to great discussions with you very knowledgable guys and hope to learn tons of cool ****. Plus, I have tons of stories to tell so if you need a laugh or one of those weird "I woke up here after a hard night drinking" stories....I'm your guy. Take it sleazy!!
