The tools
Tools of the trade - I receive many questions about the guitars I play. Here are the most popular ones. Enjoy their story
Ibanez EP5 Euphoria Steve Vai Signature Acoustic-Electric Guitar
A long time ago - I decided to acquire this guitar to start a project - LowKeySounds. The idea was to play music in restaurants - very low key. I ended up participating in an amazing experience with some musicians playing hot music and very much the opposite to the low key goal I had, still awesome.
I also started collecting signatures from all the local and international musicians I have been blessed to jam with. In the list there are names like Tosha Owens, Thornetta Davis, John Walkins, Jason Charboneau, Erich Goebel, Jeremy Burne, Jordan Ellington, Beto Pelle, David Watson, Dennis Sikes, Bob Codish, Joey Spina, Rusty Reid, Brendon Linsley, Joe Stanley, John Abraham, Jimmy Alter, David Kocbus, Lou Floer, Tim Dennis, Ray Kaan, Chris Smith, Bob Cason, Fofo Canales, Alfredo Zumaya, Reed Mitchell and many more…
I still use this guitar as I love the action and the sound.
Gibson Les Paul Replica
in 2019, I visited family and friends in Argentina. A great friend of mine Matias Figueroa, gave me this guitar.
It was the only time in my life that someone outside of family has given me an instrument.
This is now my main guitar after having gotten it all set up by Jesse Ian Hopkins
2012 Gibson Les Paul Standard
When I was 18 years old, I had collected enough money to buy a Gibson Les Paul - black - not the one on the picture. That guitar suffered a neck issue and broke my heart.
I found in this one a replacement, many years later.
Fender Roadhouse Strat
My first American strat. I love this guitar. I am not usually playing it - it has too much competition in my collection. :)
Fender American Standard Telecaster
I always wondered about the telecaster sound. Until this axe came my way I had played strats and other kinds. I love the sound, action and the fact that it never goes out of tune.
