Descriptions
"Man of few words, he lets guitar do the talking for him. Formerly, "Augustus Edward Jackson", Gunner never fit into the mold his parents had picked out for him. Given the choice to an athlete or a lawyer, he chose option C... Rock Stardom. Not caring what other people think, the only feedback Gunner likes comes from his amp. For a quiet guy, he sure keeps the volume high. His band members say that he needs blaring music in order to sleep at night."—Guitar Hero: On Tour in-game bio.
"Gunner doesn't actually tour, he kind of just does whatever. The dude is on a whole other wavelength, and he lets his amp do the talking for him. He raises the volume and lays on the power chords until something starts smoking. Gunner's solos are 100% grunge... just like the shirt he's been wearing this month."—Guitar Hero On Tour: Decades in-game bio.
"There are two things Gunner likes to do, sleep and play guitar. Sometimes he does both. Gunner's sleep rocking is not only a medical anomaly, but super annoying for everyone else on the tour bus. On stage, Gunner lays down on the thickest power chords and doesn't stop until something starts smoking."—Band Hero in-game bio.
