I'm not too familiar with his music but the dude is an incredible guitarist.


Saw Whitesnake live a few years ago and they had Joel and Reb Beach on guitar - was fucking amazing

Met him at NAMM years ago and we jammed a bit in the L6 booth. This was before he joined Whitesnake etc so he wasn't very well known back them but he already had a solid gig with Cher.

He is a really nice guy, super humble and friendly. Scary good as a player.
Guitars:
'78 Les Paul Pro / '89 SG Special/ '04 Gibson Les Paul Classic 3 pickup / Jackson Star/ Endres Tele / Fernandes Rhoads/ ''74 Hohner MIJ strat/ 2 Partscasters

I first saw him many years ago in NYC at the Rock Of Ages musical, met him afterwards too, nice guy. He's a freaking monster player, and judging by his Instagram, before Covid, this dude does not stop. Rotates between Cher, Trans-Siberian Orchestra, and Whitesnake on the regular.
