About Me:
I have been playing for about 5 months and already have 5 guitars. I'm a bit obsessed I guess. Completely rebuilt my RG120 and rebuilt my RG320 before I ever took a lesson. My thought was "what better way to learn the parts of the guitar, than to build one". Well that thought really paid off, I have even worked on my instructors guitars. Who know's maybe it will turn into a business. You never know where lifes path is going to lead.
Musical Influences:
Not really sure how to answer this one. I listen to all kinds of music from Heavy Metal to Country to Classical. I’ll add more to this section after I think about it some more.
Instruments I Own:
‘89 Ibanez RG 120 (complete strip and rebuild)
‘90 Ibanez RG 320 (rebuild)
‘96 Epiphone Strat

RG120 completely builtHere it is completed. It's an 80's guitar so I wanted it to have classic 80's paint job.

RG120 Rebuild (body)Routing in the Floyd Rose bridge was the most nerve racking part of the rebuild.
