Hello! My name is James, and I am from the United States. I have been playing for about 8 or 9 months, so I'm still new to the guitar, but I love playing it. I live in a very conservative and religious household, and because of that I don't feel accepted due to me being transgender, but once I picked up a guitar, it helped me cope and get through life and gave me something to do during quarantine. Avenged Sevenfold has been one of my favorite bands since I was 12/13, and has helped me so much in my life. Rediscovering their music during 2020 was what made me pick up a guitar and want to learn it, so I am so stoked to be able to learn from one of my inspirations. I am still a beginner, so I am very excited to learn more techniques that can help me throughout my musical journey!
