On the website you can find my music and a few videoclips.
But that would not tell the whole story.

When I grew up, loads of guys had naked women hanging from their bedroom walls, but for me it was always music, and gear.
At that moment in time you could only dream about ever owning a Marshall stack and refrigerator rack like Vai, Van Halen etc.

Fast forward to now a days and all the gear I ever lusted for is now available for next to nothing.
The real high-end gear is still incredibly expensive, but when you can buy a Rocktron Voodu Valve for under 125,00 who can pass on that, right?

When people see my setup they always ask “why spend so much money when you can buy an AxeFX?”
Most are really surprised when I tell them that I could not even get a second hand one for what I paid for my rack.

And when we talk about sound….
Don’t get me wrong, I love technology.
In fact I still have my VG-88, which claimed to sound just as good as a tube amp (yep it started there already).
And also today I love playing with modelers and own a GE300, BiasX and Genome which all sound awesome.
But every time I plug into a tube amp or Synergy system, it just sounds different and in my opinion much fuller.

Same with the vintage gear, especially the analogue gear has a certain coloring of the sound that I really like.
And believe it or not, not all delays or reverbs sound the same, in fact they ALL sound completely different.

You already guessed it, I love vintage gear.
So in this segment of the site I will upload blogposts about my gear\/software.

Be patient, the site is a side project for us and will be build in my spare time.<\/p>\n\n\n
