Thomas Earl is an Audio/Visual technician by day and enthusiastic guitar player at night. Playing with local legend Rob Schiff and the Rob Schiff band in the local club scene covering such bands as The Allman Brothers, Grateful Dead, Beatles, Tom Petty, to name a few. Upon a recommendation from a fellow guitar player he purchased the RG450 looking for a "good sounding hollow body" as the Les Paul he was playing did get a bit heavy by the end of a 4 hour non-stop practice session followed by all night playing in the club, "I was looking for something to switch off with". "Rob is known for long practices and long sets, well with doing Allman/Dead tunes and all". "I was so amazed at the sound and quality of the 450 for the price you pay." Realizing that his dream of becoming a "Rock Star" was just a dream he has settled for having a great time playing out doing cover tunes. "When you walk away from an all night gig with about $100 in your pocket you don't have the resources to spend thousands of dollars on guitars and Raven West Guitars allows people like me to get the quality of those guitars for a fraction of the cost". RavenWestGuitar wishes Thomas and the band much continued success! Quality Electric Guitars at affordable prices.
