2004- (hed) p.e. - guitars  

Personal information


Jaxon is noted for having 10 years of guitar playing experience prior to his introduction to Hed PE in 2004 bringing in a total of 15 years since 1994. Jaxon uses seven-string guitars when performing with Hed PE, but he is able to play as six and twelve stringed guitars as noted by his blog.

Jaxon was first considered to become Hed PE's second guitarist after the departure of Chad "Chizad" Benekos during the recording of Hed PE's third studio album, Blackout but was passed over by a more well known guitarist, Sonny Mayo who is the former guitarist of alternative metal band, Snot. When Sonny left Hed PE at the end of the Blackout tour, Jaxon took his spot and ever since has been their only guitarist serving them as a lead and rhythm guitarist.

As of 2008, Jaxon has been regularly updating his MySpace with exclusive guitar instrumentals that he has wrote including raw versions of Represent and N.O.C. These instrumentals show a more experimental side of Jaxon where he tends to explore different types of musical genres such as psychedelic and funk.
