Will Ray
Will Ray (born 1950 in Richmond, Virginia) is a long-time American session guitarist and current member of the Hellecasters. Ray has also released a number of solo albums. He is considered an influential player of the Fender Telecaster line of guitars. Fender made two Will Ray signature models in the late 1990s: the Jazz-a-Caster and the Mojo-Tele.[1] G&L is now offering a Will Ray signature model guitar and a less expensive version within their lower cost brand, Tribute by G&L. [2]
In July 2005 Ray moved to North Carolina where he built a new state of the art recording studio for production projects.
In September 2009, Ray began hosting a weekly music jam in Fletcher, NC at The Feed and Seed.[3] The Tuesday night "Will Ray Mountain Jam" encourages local musicians, singer/songwriters to sign up and play with the house band (Will Ray and The Son's of Ralph).[4]
