As the story goes, boy meets girl, girl can sing, boy can play... and the rest is 30 years of Rock & Roll history. Neil and his legendary wife, Pat Benatar, teamed up to create some of Arena Rock's most famous songs like "Heartbreaker","Hit Me with Your Best Shot", "Shadows of the Night", "Promises in the Dark", "Love is a Battlefield" and "You Better Run". Neil's guitar playing inspired a whole new sound that dominated the 80's and 90's. With four GRAMMYs and twenty albums later with Pat, Neil Giraldo is one of the most influential guitarists to ever grace the stage. Whether it's Rick Derringer or Kenny Loggins, John Waite or Steve Perry, Neil's style is ever-adaptable and unique and always in demand.

On tour with Pat Benatar, Neil is still rockin' the house with his "steal-the-show" stage presence; showing no signs of slowing down! Neil has become a lover of the new V2 Series of pedals. Recently he told us, "The Jekyll & Hyde pedal gives me a very smooth and punchy front end sound. I can feel the pick hit the string without over coloring my tone!" Visual Sound is proud to be a part of the incredible sound of Neil Giraldo!
