I started with a Hawaiian Ukulele at 7
Got my first Fender Strat at 9
Played Classical in Junior High
Got obsessed with PowerRock Technique Tuning & Tone and quit school then made a mini EVH Kramer to learn Spanish fly which I gave to Ed for the MTV 'Hot for teacher' video.

- My Gear
- My Company makes Higher 7th string guitars
slightly fanned 'multiscale', and 29 or 31 frets
that are 'shape progressive', they are made 'tuning specific' DGCFADG -having either a wound or plain center string (both being the same gauge). Features are a 10"-16" compound radius, 12-18:1 progressive ratio tuners, tuning locking finger-tabs, Kahler (with Palm Control) for Wide-Standard/vintage spacing or Floyd Rose 'tremolo' bridges, Seymour Duncan pickups, and advanced yet simple controls (like concentric and push-pull) including Tone cap switching! I've been asked if I'd put a video-game button on it for a killswitch -hmm, is that possible?
- Duncan Pups I Have Experience With...
- ALL from the 80's-90's
7-strings only since 2000
Latest being the TB-15 Alt-8 for 7!
The new instrument requires 3 (single-coil size) pickups to be created for it before going into production.
