Interests

In my spare time I build Electric guitars I build them from start to finish including custom paint and wiring I sell some of these and do work for friends and family as needed

Building Guitars, Walking my dog

I used my construction experience to take on a dare. That dare was building my first guitar and from that point I was hooked.

I started building to sell I even  have a webpage on Reverb.com to sell what I build. 

Due to personal issues guitars have been put on hold for now.

My best friend is surely my dog Buford. I got him at six weeks as a rescue, now at four years old he is surely one of the best trained and will behaved dogs I have ever had. He is leashed trained but is also fine off leash which is sometimes hard to train.
