As long as I can remember I wanted to play guitar--I don't remember why or who.

Once I started there were guitarists & other musicians that were part of the influences I have--and part of the reason I love the guitar, but they came afterwards.

Elvis, Rolling Stones, and Hendrix. Elvis sparked the interest and then the Stones and Hendrix resparked it when I was older and when I actually got a guitar.

I was Inspired by Stevie Ray Vaughn. He has been a big influence on me and my grandfathers lives.

Kurt Cobain primarily, Jimi Hendrix, also AC/DC and The Beatles. I branched out my musical intrests from there. Pretty standard I think.

As far as professional inspirations go it's probably SRV and Jimmy Page, but the real reason I started learning guitar is cause of my grandfather. We used to sit around with a couple family friends and play on the front porch. We played mostly old country and some blues. I miss those times.
