About Pete and his guitars:

Self taught in the art of ‘fret wizardry’. - been playing for more years than he cares to remember and loves every minute of it.

“I bought my first guitar at the age of 17 (a Kay 6-stringed Wonderplank!) and disappeared into my bedroom to study the mysterious art of music – eventually resurfacing a few weeks later with an ‘iffy’ rendition of something by The Clash. I thought I was ready to conquer the music world  but soon had my hopes dashed when encountering a few of the very talented local musicians who are still just ‘local’ - a lot more practising and learning needed to be done!!

Alongsidre Widge’s vocals his guitar lines are the icing on the cake which has its solid foundations set by Rich and Gary.  Reproducing the ‘classic’ recognisable riffs, licks and chops with ease and often embellishing a little to suit the style of the band and his mood at the time. Many people believe he is too modest about his abilities and if you ever get to see a ‘solo spot’ you are amoung a privileged few (he doesn’t do many)

Favourite guitarists:
"I like to listen to all types of music (guitar based and otherwise) so it’s difficult to single out any from a wide range of influences. Iif I had to choose then I would say that Joe Satriani (combining feel with technical ability) and Angus Young (for his infectious style and showmanship) definitely have something a bit special."

“If you think you’re going wrong – just smile.

The audience will never know!!!”

Also seems to have taken on the role of ‘Band Tech’ - runs the PA, devised the lighting setup, recording engineer, artwork, webmaster ……
