Introduce yourself. What is your name and location?

My name is Jared and I live in Portland.

Tell us a little about your story, you can tell us your age if your game but not necessary (or age bracket, we have a truly diverse group). When did you take up guitar? How long have you been playing? What led you to look for lessons or help, how is it you ended up here?

I've been playing guitar for almost nine years. I started at the tender age of 14 and now I'm 22 years old(almost 23). I just signed up to this website to get a specific tab for a song.

What Kind of Guitar do you play? Do you have any others in your stable? Do you lust after anything else specifically? (all of us here have the 'disease' it seems)

I currently own an Epiphone SG and an Epiphone AJ acoustic. I like to play a variety of genres.

What is your favorite music to play? How about to listen to? What kind of playing styles would you like to learn or already know?

I enjoy playing a lot of classical finger-picking style along with metal(thrash speed-picking as well as playing solos through various songs. I love dimished arpeggio solos along with 5-string arpeggios. The style that I would really like to learn(haven't learned yet) would be slap guitar(Myavi and Justin King style).

If there was one goal you could accomplish in your learning journey what would that be? or maybe you have many?

There is one goal(guitar-wise) that I want to accomplish: Learning slap guitar techniques!

If you are comfortable share with us your work a little, job, business, whatever you want to say.

Going to school to be a bartender. Would you like a martini? LOL! Also going back to college to study Criminal Justice.

Anything else you would like to share ? Anything about your family, hobbies outside of Guitar? On the site you will meet everyone from golfers to Gourmet Chef's to car nuts, and sports folk..and everyone in between. Whatever else you may want to add?

Well, other than music, I've been training in martial arts for several years. I currently train in Krav Maga, an Israeli self defense and fighting system.
