A throwback to 2015 when @hullensian71 and I met @andytimmonsofficial after his superb show with his band at Band On The Wall in Manchester. It was a wonderful evening spent with a great friend, and Andy was so kind. We had a brilliant chat about fretboard visualisation and listening, and Andy was so insightful about his approach on the guitar - it felt like he had all the time in the world for us. A world class guitarist, musician and a top bloke! Well worth the parking ticket we got!
This album has my attention at the moment - one word, MONSTROUS! Beautiful music.
I love the tone of my USA Deluxe Telecaster through the mighty THR100HD!
After much preparation and the upgrading of my home studio, I’m now looking to offer limited availability in my Saturday School for 1:1 guitar and ukulele lessons, hopefully in May once given the all clear from the government.
Such a great setup for productivity and workflow!
My tribute to Mr. Edward Lodewijk Van Halen - not an attempt to impersonate, but an attempt to embody my learning from, and appreciation of him over the years. A tremendous guitarist, the impact of which is unlikely to be felt by any future generation.

All you need in life is friendship, love, guitars (and everything that GAS brings), music, intrigue, a decent set of knives, quality produce and a black chefs jacket. A decent west coast IPA is a worthy accomplice, too. #love #life #stop #trying #to #please #anyone #but #yourself #lovewhatyoudo #otherswillfollow
A little something I’ve started transcribing. This intro section is a big left hand and upstroke/accent work out! Do you know the riff?
A little project I set myself; to learn and transcribe the sax solo to Clarence ‘Gatemouth’ Brown’s ‘Without My Baby’. It was a lot of fun, and full of musical vocab and approaches that I’d never experienced before.
