I have no secrets; all of these things have been discussed at length in guitar magazines over the years but are far too elaborate to cover in one article.
Adrian Belew

I have been playing a lot of keyboards, especially in the last five or six years. I suppose it gives you more scope than the guitar, although it does tend to make you write a different way.
Mick Ralphs

I learned to play guitar at a young age and converted poems and stuff that I had written to songs.
Gregory Harrison

I was left with an urge to make the guitar sound like things it shouldn't be able to sound like.
Adrian Belew

I love the subtlety and tonal range of the acoustic guitar.
Dan Fogelberg

My stuff was more of a folk coffeehouse thing, with more acoustic guitar, just me doing a single, and then adding on instruments and voices, with emphasis on lyrics and singing and light kind of acoustic jazz.
Dan Hicks

I might have a guitar or a piano on set to play something for the actors.
Mike Figgis

My first really good guitar was a Gibson J-45.
Johnny Rivers

I play piano and trumpet. I studied classical guitar.
Mike Figgis

It's just something I've always done. In South Texas, the first guitar you get is a Mexican guitar. And the first one I got, the first thing I did was take it apart.
Guy Clark

I listen to other guitar players, yeah. It gives me new concepts and shows me where the instrument is going for the future and it is going some places. There are some musicians who are really putting out a good vibe with new theories. I try and keep up.
George Benson

I went to see John Mayall at the Marquee, with Peter Green on guitar, and that was a particularly good gig.
Alvin Lee

I mean, I can sit down with a guitar, and in fact, we do two, three songs with just guitar and percussion.
Jackie DeShannon

I'm not a really good classical guitarist by any means, but what I learned from this is a way of working very slowly on solo pieces and I enjoyed working on these pieces of John's. They were not written for solo guitar but a lot of them were easy to adapt.
Marc Ribot

I've known Shawn for several years. And he's just an amazing talent. He's a great writer, a marvelous, marvelous guitar player, and plays really good fiddle.
Guy Clark

I'm left handed, but my dad taught me to play guitar right-handed.
Dustin Diamond

Besides being a guitar player, I'm a big fan of the guitar. I love that damn instrument.
Steve Vai

T-Bone Walker was a big influence on just about every guitar player around.
Johnny Winter

Nobody seems to play Yamaha electrics, but it's the best guitar I own.
Daisy Berkowitz

The only time it dominates is during a solo, or when we play a low blues and I put figures in behind Eric's vocals. There's never any real problem fitting guitar and organ together.
