Welcome, Marshall. There are so many different breeds of domestic cats, and I'm certainly no expert when it comes to identifying them. As a layman, I'd simply say it's a tabby with mackerel patterning. Others have the oyster patterning which are the broader stripes and swirls. I have one of each, both ginger. Happy spotting.
