Hi Stephane...i listen to a lot of genres ...from blues and jazz to extreme metal...I don't really have a favorite band or bands, but i listen to thinks like this : Death, Django Reinhardt,Accuser, Camel,Pink Floyd,Suicidal Angels, Vektor, Led Zeppelin, Emir Hot, Joe Satriani...I know that these bands are very different from one to another...and as I said early i listen to a lot of genres depending on how I feel.

Hi Maris and welcome to GMC That's a very diverse list of bands there.. but diversity is good ! Which guitarists do you feel most influenced by out of that list ? For me, I think listening to Joe Satriani helped me develop melody and fee and inspired me to want to get betterl

Very cool list of influences - I say diversity is the key to becoming a good musician!

See you round.

Hello & welcome Maris! GMC can be overwhelming, so make sure you ask questions. There are a lot of amazing guitarists here who are more than happy to help. You might not want to ask me, though. I'm not amazing...YET!!!
