This Gallery brings images and stories of my personal instruments. With a love of the guitar brought on by the likes of Eric Clapton, to Joe Pass, to Pat Metheny, to Martin Taylor and Andy Timmons, I’ve had a lifelong passion for nice guitars and those that have truly mastered playing them and making them.
