Zane is no stranger to the metal scene - he spent the six years prior to joining Halcyon Way playing bass and singing for the Atlanta goth metal band Abwhore, and after that band dissolved, Zane took on the touring vocalist duties for power metal legends Cauldron Born and appeared at the Powermad & Classic Metal fests. Zane brings not only his guitar abilities to the stage but his vocal abilities as well, that are sure to blow away anyone who doubts the force of this progressive metal juggernaut. Zane is endorsed by Halo Guitars,and uses and abuses the following: Halo Guitars, Bugera Amps, Sfarzo guitar strings, and a Sennheiser wireless that Jon lets him use.

This is how Zane learned to play guitar. To this day these are an invaluable reference tool. This is one guitar course you should own.
