Stephen Ragsdale

I have been playing guitar since January of 1999, and what I know I have taught myself in that short amount of time. I taught myself by looking at the Nirvana "Nevermind" tab and piano book, as well as a variety of other tabs. I'm surely not the best guitar player, but I enjoy playing. I joined up with Grind after meeting Jarrett at work and going over to the house and playing some. Later, we added another actually talented guitarist, and a singer. My position in the band is to basically write the guitar riffs, while Josh adds in some more complexity.

Equipment - I play with a Hamer Slammer 6 string guitar, as well as a Schecter Revenger 7 string. I use a 120 Watt Crate head with two 4x12 cabinets. I have a POD and a Line 6 foot board to go along with it.
