Influences
Basically listen to anyone and learn the songs that call to me.
I tend to play a lot of Dave Gilmore style lead and I am always analysing Jimi Hendrix stuff. But I also like to play a lot of blues.... sometimes funking it up a bit.

EQUIPMENT
Not a big name guitar fancier. I spend a lot of time finding guitars that play well and then change the electrics to get the tone I want.
The sound of the guitar determines what style I want to play.
Predominantly use Marshall style amps but also use line 6 gear to generate the tones that I want to feel for the song.
