Topic: A reintroduction
hello people!
I am a norwegian guitar player, music teacher and school teacher. I`m into vintage guitars, amps pedals and tape echos, rack gear and everything gear related. Been playing actively for twenty years now, any gig I can get.
I`m the singer and guitar player in the Norwegian blues/rock band Tubesnakes. You can find us on the digital platforms. Our latest release is called "Tarred and feathered".
My influences are: Jimi hendrix. jeff beck, Joe Bonamassa, eric clapton, warren Haynes, allman brothers, ry cooder, eric johnson, michael landau albert lee, david gilmour robben ford and BB king.
Currently I have two gear projects. I would like to build a guitar rack for those eighties/early nineties studio geek tones.
The second is to build a Eric Johnson based rig with stereo clean, dirty rhythm and BK butler tube driven Marshall plexi lead. I think that my clean and lead tones are getting there. Need to get another amp for dirty as soon as paying gigs allow it. I have a channel on youtube that I`ve been using on and off the last six or seven years. (vadlasletta)
