Central Ohio native now in Fort Mill, SC

I figured I'd stop luring in the shadows and make a proper introduction (though certainly not as good as the hot sauce guy).
I'm a recent transplant to the greater Charlotte, NC area for work reasons, originally from central Ohio and lived there in Columbus for many years.
Was a bit of a metal head before I became a Cure fan in high school in the 90's. (I've gotten over the shame a long time ago.) I'm an art school drop out and do databases and reporting to pay the bills.
I do not consider myself a "serious musician" and playing is more like therapy for me.
Although sometimes it might be the illness.
The lines get blurred. :-)
I own a Squire Bass VI and some inexpensive but very playable strat clones. I've got a soft spot for old dirty Peavey amps and video game music. I'm into Surf rock, shoegaze or whatever is fun to play.
I'm currently in the process of building my first Jazzmaster and dusting off my old woodshop skills. I figured this forum would be an invaluable resource with the combined experience base of the members. Since I'm the sole support for myself, my wife and two kids and "technically" don't need more guitars, it will be done mostly with incremental purchases, hand tools and as much DIY as I can manage. I know I'm swan diving down the rabbit hole here, but I figure, why fight it.
Anyways, thanks for welcoming me to your support group. The first step is admitting you have a problem.
