Hey everyone, my buddy Cam(LOGfanforever90) referred me to this site since I plan on getting a 7-String once I come back from this country, still got six months to go!

Anyway, I am a Cavalry Scout(19D) in the U.S. Army and I am currently in Afghanistan. Yes I have been in firefights, the longest one being 4 1/2 hours. If you want details about where I am exactly, sorry, can't give them.

I have been playing guitar...maybe, for...3 years now, not sure. I am mostly self taught, I was taking lessons for a few months but stopped for some reason, I wish I had continued though, I probably will take them up again at some point. My favorite genre of music is metal, my favorite bands currently are; Born of Osiris, Periphery, Lamb of God, Opeth, TesseracT, and Pantera(No particular order.)

I own two electrics, a Dean ML79 Brazilla Burst w/ a "Floyd Rose" and a Seymour Duncan Dimebucker in the Bridge, stock pickup in the neck. The other is an Ibanez in the RG series...can't remember which though. I haven't really written any of my own music, but it's something I plan on doing once I am stateside again, but I have begun writing some 7-String stuff in guitar pro. :hbang:

That's all I got.

-Tim

Thank you for serving. I spent most of my time floating on huge chunks of metal. You're doing the hard work. :yesway:

Hell yeah, always nice to run into another 19D, I'm in the 4th I.D. and I can't wait to get the hell out. Got about 3 months or so left, then I am back stateside, YES. :hbang:
