Hey, I'm a 18 year old guitarist who's been playing for a while now, and I want to take it seriously and try either get a band together or join a band with some like minded musicians. My dream for ages has been to make/ join a band, release an album and get gigging! My only issue is transport since I'm just starting uni in Guildford and I couldn't bring my car with me, but that will change next year.
My gear includes a boss katana MK2 solid amp and 2 Jackson rr's cause guitars with pointy edges are cooler (Fight me). Also have a couple pedals but no real board yet.
I'm a grade 7 if that helps anyone with my general level of playing. Link to some of my SoundCloud stuff is at the bottom, most of it is just collections of riffs put together but it'll probably give you an idea of the sort of stuff I write. Im fine doing some covers but ideally i want to write some originals and get gigging!
My influences are based mainly in hard rock, old school heavy metal and thrash in the 70's, 80s, and 90's. So mostly between E standard and D standard, personally i dont think you have to be in drop A to be heavy.
List of some of the bands i like/ are influenced by: (in no particular order)
Deep Purple
ACDC
Guns and Roses
Van Halen
Judas priest
Iron Maiden
Megadeth
Metallica
Anthrax.
Annihilator
motley crue
pantera
Black sabbath
Slayer
So if any of those are your kinda thing, get in touch!
