unix-guy Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 Hi folks, just wanted to introduce myself (in case anyone cares!). I was brought to this forum by the bassist in my band, known here as "Big Red 67". My name is Kevin Collins, I've been playing guitar for about 22 years now and I hope to contribute to the forum at some point. I'm a big fan of Satch and Eric Johnson, and also a big fan of John Mayer (duck!), among many others. I am the principal writer in the originals band Too Much Fiction ( http://www.toomuchfiction.com ) which I started almost 14 years ago. We play modern, jazzy pop/rock with a female lead vocalist. Feel free to comment on any of the music on our site. I have a vast array of pedals on my board, am currently playing Budda SuperDrive series II amps (I have a 2x12 18watt and a 1x12 18watt) and have a small army of '87 and '88 Ibanez Sabres, as well as an '86 Ibanez ProLine PL1770 and a '98 Ibanez SC420. And yes, I do like Ibanez guitars although I prefer the old Japanese-made ones. Thanks and I'll see you in the threads! Kevin '87/'88 Ibanez Sabre's (4), '86 Ibanez PL1770, Budda SuperDrive 18 (1x12 and 2x12), GeorgeL Cables, Barber Direct Drive (best $99 ever spent!), Hermida ZenDrive, Nobels ODR-1, Morley Bad Horsie II, numerous other pedals...
