hello all, I'm Dave from Omaha Nebraska. i am 23 years of age and a huge vintage gear nerd, collector, player, novice technician, and enthusiast. everything. synths, organs, amps, pedals, fx, mic pres, recording consoles, cabs, guitars, tape machines and microphones. i love the warmth and depth created by vintage gear that is near impossible to recreate digitally. i know music wouldn't be where it is today without the technical advancements digital gear has brought us but i feel like there is no time then the present to acknowledge how priceless vintage gear sounds. with all the new digital technology these days, i feel a lot of musicians, producers, and engineers have lost out on a lot of the classic tones created by analog gear. (this sounds like a term paper 
) I got my first guitar at age four, started lessons in first grade and am still playing today. my father owns a local music store that i teach guitar lessons at and help with tech work. my roommate, good friend and fellow gear nerd is a full time mixing engineer and owns a westlake audio built studio where most of my gear resides. i fell in love with synth's about 5 years ago when i played my first moog. i was fascinated by the unique sounds created by these things and knew i had to have one. from there, lets just say i went a little gear crazy and now have a huge collection of sytnhs and organs that get used in recording sessions on the daily. all in all. i love everything about music because it can be so many things to so many different people. oh the beauty of perception.
