[talking about The Edge] And that`s not always a given - that he would want to play guitar. He might be into keyboards this album, and you have Larry and Adam going "oh fuck, he`s into the keyboards now. We`ll never get a rock song out of him".

My daddy had seen a lot of people who played guitars and stuff and didn`t work, so he said, `You should make up your mind either about being an electrician or playing a guitar, and I never saw a guitar player that was worth a damn.`

Music`s something I`ll be doing for the rest of my life, whether I`m just playing guitar in my living room or whether I`m playing for 3,000 people.

There is not enough money in Hollywood to lure me into making another picture with Joan Crawford. And I like money. - Sterling Hayden after filming "Johnny Guitar"
Sterling Hayden
It`s interesting because I`ve spent all my life playing live, and having people comment on my guitar playing, but I`ve always wanted to put more focus on the songs and the singing. So now, it`s kind of funny, because I`m in a position with `Your Everythin...
Keith Urban
My dad and I are best friends. He`s pretty much responsible for the way I turned out. He would provide a little artistic inspiration here and there in the form of a guitar, stuff like that.
Trent Reznor
It`s just me and a guitar, so I`m not going to be doing a lot of Smashing Pumpkins. I do Tom Waits, Neil Young, Bob Dylan. That`s all the good stuff, man. That`s when they had good songs written for just voice and guitar. I wish I could do Johnny Lee Hook...

You can scratch the surface of my songs pretty lightly and you`ll find someone who wanted to be James Taylor at the age of 14. He`s also a brilliant and ridiculously underrated guitar player and blessed with a voice that could melt ice caps.

Let me explain something about guitar playing. Everyone`s got their own character, and that`s the thing that`s amazed me about guitar playing since the day I first picked it up. Everyone`s approach to what can come out of six strings is different from ano...

When he`s not working: "I have way too many hobbies. I play guitar, and my buddies and I record music in a studio in my house. I have a couple of vintage Jeeps I`m always working on, fixing up. And I ride horses-I grew up on a horse ranch-and play basketb...

[Jeff Beck] is one of the most amazing guitar players the world has seen when it just comes to rock and roll guitar. He`s a real organic player.

A lot of little girls under 10 really like my music and are starting to play guitar. It`s a heavy responsibility. If there`s a kid in the front row, I definitely curb my usual sailor-esque tones. (2007)
KT Tunstall
I would sing behind closed doors growing up. Jessica was so good and it made me shy about my own voice. But, I don`t hide my singing - not anymore. I sing punk music actually. I love to run around and scream and rock out and play guitar.
Ashlee Simpson
I write a lot of music in my time off and I compose most of the songs on guitar. I`ve actually gone into the studio and recorded a few things, but it`s tough trying to sell a song. It`s all about finding that hook, that melody.
Scott Patterson
[On growing up in a single-parent household]: "No one ever taught me how to shave; no one ever sat down to watch a Braves game with me. I paid for Yale myself, I lived by myself, I taught myself how to play the guitar. I did this all on my own."
Kip Pardue
The good thing about Joe is that he`s the craziest person I`ve ever met in my life. And the worst thing about Joe is that he`s the craziest person I`ve ever met in my life. Kevin is really good at staying focused on guitar. But there`s nothing really bad ...
Nicholas Jonas
I was playing guitar before I heard The Beatles, but as I got older and listened to their tunes I realised they were amazing. They inspire me more now than they did when I was a kid and are still the greatest.
Noel Gallagher
It`s not an indulgent type of performance when I play live, but there is a lot of passionate guitar playing involved, and it`s as equally predominant as the singing and performing - if not just a little bit more so. It`s definitely a focus of the show ......
Keith Urban
On Josie and the pussycats; I`m learning to play guitar. It`s very difficult, but I`m determined to do it right so I don`t make anybody mad.
Rachael Cook
You pick up your guitar, you rip a few people`s tunes off, you swap them around a bit, get your brother in the band, punch his head in every now and then, and it sells.
Noel Gallagher
I love to surf. Every summer we go to my grandma`s house on the Jersey Shore, and I taught myself to surf there. I also play basketball, and I also play tennis, volleyball. I play the guitar and I was on the swim team, soccer, and last summer I got my jun...
