Interests

  • General

    Music, guitars, concerts, dining, boating, hiking, CNC programming, CAD/CAM design, cool cars/trucks, friends, fishing, camping, family and close loved ones, etc....
  • Music

    I pretty much like it all but am a hard rocker at heart. Born and raised on Sabbath, Maiden, Dio, Scorps, Priest,... any good band with good players and a righteous set of pumping lungs and a solid groove. But I also love Jazz, Fusion, killer chicken pickers and guys like Robben Ford, Larry Carlton, Gary Moore, Jeff Beck, and many more.... I've been getting into a lot of the newer bands which in the 90's I was having a hard time finding very many I really liked. I'm diggin Fair To Midland, Disturbed, Tool, and many more as well as enjoying seeing some of what started in the 80's still rocking hard like Tesla and many others.
  • Movies

    Star Wars (series), Alien, Lord of the Rings (series), Willy Wonka (original), Star Trek (series), I love most any good sci fi, action/adventure, comedy, some of the good slice and dice and those scary religion based thrillers like The Exorcist, The Omen and more...
  • Television

    The news, its the scariest and funniest stuff out there
  • Books

    I don't read much unless they are technical manuals for software or machinery, boating related, music or entertainment magazines.
  • Heroes

    My wife, both my Dad's, Mom's right up there too.... Also people who overcome great obstacles while keeping a smile on their face.

About me:

..   What can I say I have built my life around music as the core and expanded upon this theme. I am a Guitar Builder/Designer/Engineer by day under my company’s name of Fine Tuned Instruments LLC www.finetunedinstruments.com originally known as the founder of the Baker Guitars when we operated in Santa Maria, CA.

I also play in a rock band on the weekends to maintain my weekend warrior status. The bands name is Mean Gene and the Portable Jon's found at www.meangene.org as well as my own solo acoustic act dubbed "Just Me-an Gene", just me my guitar and a microphone. I stumbled onto My Space by a friend Jeni Blue that told me I should check it out and would be a good place to let more people hear about what we do.

All my pics

Who I'd like to meet:

Anybody that enjoys live bands and supporting the music scene in general or those that dig American made killer guitars.
