I will play tasteful feel-based lead guitar on your track for $90

Looking for a lead guitar part that says something — not one that just shows off?
Lead guitar is where most session players try to impress. I try to serve. After 30 years on the instrument and 250+ released tracks, I've learned that the best solos are remembered for one or two notes that land exactly right — not for the 200 around them.
What I do best

Bluesy, vocal-style phrasing — Gilmour, Knopfler, early Santana DNA
70s rock and soft-rock soloing — sustain, vibrato, dynamic builds
80s lead lines — Strat-into-chorus shimmer, compressed pick attack, melodic hooks
Funky lead breaks — short, punchy, rhythmic
Jazzy hollow-body single-note lines
Synthwave & retrowave lead textures
Surf and garage reverb-drenched lead

What you get with this gig

1 lead guitar performance on your song (up to 4 minutes)
Includes solo + signature riff + fills where appropriate
Recorded through Kemper or NAM with era-matched tone
24-bit/48kHz WAV stems
Both wet (amped) and DI versions
2 revisions
Typical turnaround: 3 to 5 days

Gear
Vintage-spec Strat, Les Paul, ES-style semi-hollow, full hollow jazz guitar, Kemper Profiler, Neural Amp Modeler, germanium fuzz collection, vintage modulation chain.
What I won't do
Shred. Sweep picking. 16th-note runs for the sake of it. Eight-finger tapping. Djent. If your reference is Yngwie, Vai or Polyphia, we're not a match — and I'd rather tell you upfront than disappoint you on delivery.
References I'm fluent in
Gilmour, Knopfler, Robben Ford, Larry Carlton, Lee Ritenour, Jeff Beck (the melodic side), Richie Sambora, early Eddie Van Halen melodic moments, John Mayer, Mark Knopfler again because he matters that much.
Pairs well with
Already ordering rhythm? Check my "Full Guitar Package" gig — rhythm + lead bundled together at a lower total price than ordering separately.
