Larry Ivy
My name is Larry and I have been lucky enough to open for some of my favorite bands and tour in a semi profession way. My first introduction to guitar was my uncle letting me play his acoustic and I've been hooked since. This has led me to adventures I could never have dreamed of.
Truly one of the best times I can have is sharing knowledge and helping anyone on their Musical Journey. I can't wait to continue helping musicians on their journey with Sweetwater.
As your personal contact here at Sweetwater, please let me know anytime I can offer help or advice.

What in your background prepared you most to help your customers with their audio needs?
Working in the music industry you tend to learn more helping customers than you could ever learn on your own. Just being open to learning from anyone and everyone has taken my knowledge far.

It would be a toss up to Asking Alexandria and Between The Buried and Me.
