Hello I'm Alex from CapeTown South Africa...

Been playing for 5 years now. I started out with classical guitaring, but then the metal turned me into its slave. But I still enjoy a wide variety, my favourite band is Alter Bridge.

My gear = Les Paul custom (black Beuty), Ibanez FM260, Crafter acoustic guitar, PodXT live fx pedal, Vox ad30 amp.

I'm in a band (Wings Of Autumn), we've been quite inactive lately, but we do have 7 songs of our own. When we get a nice recording I'l post.

My goal is to write better solo's which is two fold: 1, I need more speed/precision. 2, i need my solo's to be very melodical.
I'm not a massive fan of Avenged sevenfold, but the melodic lead and solo in their song 'Nightmare' is AWESOME ohmy.gif - my solo's just need a better "feel".

Been busy with some GMC lessons, thnx they help ALOT biggrin.gif
