Just heard he passed today. He was a guitarist in a cover band I was in and went on to play with Thor, Joe Lynn Turner,and played bass with Ace in the 90s. He was an amazing guitarist and nice guy. He suffered a stroke a few years back that left him unable to play.

He died in a car accident. His mother was driving and drove into a tree. She survived.
I just finished watching the following performance that I attended.

Karl was a talented guy. He performed on Eric Singer's ESP cd "Lost And Spaced". He also co-wrote "Into The Void" with Ace and played bass in Ace's band.

Just sawit was a car accident this morning. His mom was driving? Holy cfap. She was a nice lady. This is even more devastating for her. I know his dad died some years back. Used to chat with him all the time when I worked at an ele tronics place I used to work at after Karl left my band to join up with Thor.
