Guitar???
Dude, bluegrass pickin is awesome.
I have always wanted to learn banjo pickin, just never got around to getting one.
My oldest brother is a professional percussionists.
He has sat in the studio and cut tracks for many famous bands, and flies to europe alot to do studio work for bands there.
He always had bands in the basement and garage growing up so I picked up the guitars when everyone left and never looked back.
I cannot read a note and have not even the patience to read tab, it's too frustrating for me so I just play by ear.
I like to pick blue grass stuff, old school rock and roll, blues, hard rock, heavy metal and even country stuff, but I like just making my own stuff up the most.
My biggest inluences have been Jerry Reed, Alex Lifeson, Johnny Winter, Of course Stevie Ray Vaughan, Hendrix, Led Zeppelin for sure, David Gilmore from pink Floyd, Steve Howe from Yes, Yngwie Malmsteen SP?, Other bands such as the Scorpions, Bad Company, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, Foreigner, REO speedwagen, Marshall Tucker Band and many others.
All I have now is a fender Strat and a few accoustics.
I had an opportunity to play a couple Warrior guitars with some of the best quality sound equipment and amps and have concluded those guitars to be some of the best ever, and the price tag reflects that rather well.
I'd love to join a band but I just don't have time and I have to many responsibilities at home.
