Background:
Cristof Flandres I was born in 1971. He started playing guitar when I was about 10 years old. He first played through an old Stratocaster and a 70's Marshall! when he attended a school for "troubled" students!

His early eclectic music history includes, the Beatles, Minor Threat, GBH, Gov. Issue, Agent Orange, and Black Flag and so on and such and such. Later he got into players like Vinnie Moore, Tony McAlpine, Joey Taffola, Eddie Van Halen, Jason Becker, Marty Freedman, Greg Howe, Richie Kotzen, Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, Paul Gilbert, Steve Morse, Frank Gambale and Allan Holdsworth.
