Started playing: In 1993, using a worn out old Hohner nylon-strung acoustic with an action so high the strings were in a different time zone to the body. Attempted to play 'More Than Words' and 'Nothing Else Matters,' but didn't do very well.

Main gear: Just the one guitar: white MusicMan Silhouette fitted with a (Floyd Rose licensed-) locking trem. Peavey Studio 112 combo and a Zoom 3030 FX box, both of which to be replaced soon, hopefully with a valve amp (I'm eyeing up a Trace Elliot) and a new floor FX box.

Favourite music: Joe Satriani, Ezio, Hendrix, John Fruscianti, Bob Marley, Miles Davis, Chemical Brothers, Beck...
