Deano comes from Nuneaton and first started playing guitar at the tender age of 9 , getting the idea when he saw a guitar in a shop window , " the cheapest piece of crap I've ever seen " says Deano ! He started classical lessons and found that he was pretty good at it . When he was 11 his guitar teacher moved away but fortunately passed Deano onto his cousin who played rock . Deano was hooked from thereon in , playing mostly by himself at home rather than in bands . At that time he had a couple of guitars , his dad tells me he gave him his good guitar when he found out how good he was . Deano continued to play at home until the age of 38 when he first attended open mic nights and things took off from there . As we know Deano is now in a successful band gigging every weekend and owns a Fender Telecaster, a Gibson , a PRS and many other guitars . What started out to be a hobby is now paying off all the guitar lessons he had . He has been playing most of his life .
