Re: Just introducing myself

Hi Topdown. Thanks for the warm welcome. I've been playing since I was a kid. 20 years now. I like a lot of different styles but I guess I'm mainly into heavy metal, classic rock, country and blues. Favorite artists would be Rush, Iron Maiden, Van Halen, 311, Brad Paisley, Tommy Emmanuel, Chet Atkins, Brent Mason, Metallica and Pantera. I live in California about an hour north of Bakersfield.

I stumbled onto this forum because someone local told me I should check it out for tab but I liked the way the forum was set up without too much cluttter so I figured I'd register. smile

I love the diversity in your favorites. Chet Atkins to Pantera - Cool - good music is good no matter the genre. I like it!
