    Greetings Synners

    Hello there! I'm Joe. I've been looking around for a place to get better at guitar and this looks like the spot. I've been playing for 12 years but lack in the lead playing department. I also transcribe guitar by ear at a professional quality level after being trained by the guy (Russ Elton)...
