Hey I'm Jake I'm 15, I'v been playing since i was 9 years old, i write my own instrumental music mainly inspired by michael romeo, Jason becker, paul gilbert, Guthrie govan, yngwie malmsteen, rusty cooley, MAB and DIMEBAG(RIP)!! i love playing guitar i play everyday for as long as i can pouring my heart and soul in to it, its my main aim in life! I live in Scotland, where there are no opportunities bacuse i live in a dump in the middle of nowhere, so this competition is one of the only way to get myself known! My goal is to become level with the best and tour the world showing people my music! I'm in a band with my friends and brother, we play instrumental melodic metal since there are no singers where i live cos its rubbish =\. Guitar is my life. Life is my guitar. Its all about the music man!! << (filmed in my garden! xD).
