: About Me

Well... I'm a dude, first off. By that I mean a guy. I'm also kind of a loser at my school, but who cares about what the world thinks, eh?
Anyway, I'm into rock. But not just American rock. Japanese rock is a big thing with me. My favorite band is Janne Da Arc (Japanese). They have NEVER writen a song I don't like. And they broke up last year... shame, really. I have so many favorite songs and bands I can't list them. But my top five are:

5. Sum 41
4. Protest the Hero
3. The Killers
2. Weezer
1. Janne Da Arc

I can't even begin to list songs, lqtm (Laugh quietly to myself)
Favorite Guitar Solo: Maria no Tsumeato - Janne Da Arc

I also like video games, like Final Fantasy, Sonic, Mario, Zelda and Pokemon. RPGs are a big thing with me. Heck, one of my dreams was (and is) to write plots for games and program them. My all time favorite is Pokemon Silver, followed by Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Sonic 2 and Paper Mario.
I play paintball as a sharpshooter. No, I do not believe in "snipers".

I also play guitar. I'm pretty good. I'd like to play in a symphonic metal band with pop sensibilities, blending the styles of Protest the Hero, Nightwish, Janne Da Arc and the elements of pop-punk and indie rock.

My dream guitar would be an Ibanez, with Edge Zero Bridge and Duralumin Whammy Bar, EMG 81/85 pickups, cosmo black rotary potentiometer to blend the pickups (instead of an oh-so limited toggleswitch), Ibanez Pointed Headstock, translucent natural blue finish, cosmo black volume and treble controls, trapezoidal fret markers, mahogany body, maple neck and rosewood fretboard. Lastly, the longer horn would be shaped similarly to the one on the Ibanez Iceman, but sharper. I'd call it the Ibanez Neo. It wouldn't be rediculously thin and light, but still light and fast, just not enough to ruin the warm tone. As you can see, I thought about this a lot! Bonus points if you can tell which three guitars influenced the design of this one. HINT: One is a discontinued Gibson model, and another I already gave away. Alas, for now... I shred on an Epiphone Les Paul Special II with ebony finish. :'(

Anyway, that was a pry into me. Hope you enjoyed!
