Roy is very efficient with guitars. Definitely a skilled guitarist. Working with him was a absolute pleasure. He was responsive, communicated well, and was willing to listen to all my criterias, then met every single one. Plus he was lightning fast with the delivery. He is the type of session musicians I like to work with and I highly recommend him
We are using one of Roy's stock clips (Middle Eastern Delight) in a style / design piece we are about to publish. The recording is excellent, and the music fits the video perfectly. Many thanks for a great piece, Roy!
