My preferred music style is the blues, blues-rock and jazz. When I was thirteen, I bought my first guitar, classical guitar and I played country/folk. Since twenty three years ago I also playing the electric guitar. I am self taught guitarist and I play in free time as hobby. I played or listened many songs from various artists, e.g. Miroslav Zbirka, Karel Plihal, Paul Simon, Mike Oldfield, Steve Ray Vaughan, B.B.King, Jimi Hendrix, Mark Knopfler or John Mayer and I like bands, e.g. Led Zeppelin, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Pink Floyd, U2, R.E.M. or favorite Fleetwood Mac.
