My name is Lespauled.

My name is derived from:

1) my favorite guitar (at the time): Les Paul
2) how I feel when I hear myself play: appalled.

I've recently passed into that realm where I am closer to 100 than I am to 0. But, while I'm here, I keep playing.

I recently bought an 11R and am currently working through the frustrations of the new box. Figuring out the workings, etc. I've also been checking out the numerous user patches using the standalone editor. I'm beginning to tweak some of them. If I like what I hear, I save it to the 11R.

Mostly I play classic rock.

My influences are:

Ritchie Blackmore (Deep Purple, Rainbow, Blackmore's Night)
George Lynch (Dokken, Lynch Mob, et al)
