Music Background I first started out playing clarinet for 3 years in Middle School. I then took up guitar in 6th grade. Then in the summer of my freshman year in high school I took up composing (with little regard for theory). Now I am concentrating on guitar, vocals, and piano.
Music Skills - Guitar - Piano (VERY minimal, still learning) - Clarinet - Mixing/sampling/editing - I can sing. I am not sure if I can sing well though.
Music Hardware - Schecter C-1 Blackjack electric guitar - Yamaha Portable Grand DGX-305 Keyboard - M-audio Oxygen MIDI controller - M-audio Fast Track audio interface - Morley Classic Wah - Roland Cube (it's small enough to fit in my dorm room) - Rocktron phaser pedal - Danelectro "Milkshake" Chorus pedal - Danelectro "BLT" Slap-Echo pedal - Danelectro "T-Bone" Distortion pedal - Danelectro "Chicken Salad" Vibrato pedal - Berhinger compression/sustain pedal - Digitech Whammy octave divider - Dunlop glass slide
