My bandmates in LP were very excited for me to be able to show the fans what I do individually. I wouldn`t have done this without their complete support. In fact, I picked our guitarist Brad Delson as my A&R guy!
Mike Shinoda
I started out as a guitarist in the early Eighties. I hooked up with a guy who idolized James Dean and he gave me a copy of the Dean biography, `The Mutant King`, which I thought was really interesting. While reading the book, I watched Rebel Without a Ca...
Johnny Depp
I really don`t feel like I`ve done s**t yet. When asked by Rolling Stone magazine to describe his greatest accomplishment as a guitarist (sometime around 2003).
Eddie Van Halen
We`ve got the slowest 311 song ever, called `Solar Flare,` which is a scathing political rap that [vocalist] S.A. [Martinez] puts over a really slow, heavy thing, ... And then there`s also a really fast one called `It`s Getting OK Now,` which is [guitaris...
Nick Hexum
We actually halted the recording process to go to the funeral, and we took a couple days off of the recording process to hold a benefit show for the family. Dime was a huge inspiration to Danny (guitarist Dan Donegan) and all of us, really. He was our fri...
David Draiman
This has been months and months of fans being upset and frustrated and confused. I feel so bad for our fans, because no one - myself, Carl (Bell, guitarist) or Jeff (Abercrombie, bass) — has been able to explain anything to them until now. Now we can ac...
Brett Scallions
They all mention Les as an inspiration because of (his) early records, which were jaw-dropping when you first heard them as a novice guitarist. We revere him, but Les is so genuine and down-to-earth that he`s still one of the lads.
Peter Frampton
Stan Kennedy, a local piano tuner and a killer guitarist, was asked to teach classes at the Excel Program, a music class at Emmanuel Christian School in Hartsville. He couldn`t do it, but he recommended me, and I`ve really loved it. It`s not exclusive to ...
Jim Stephens
My voice is my improvisational instrument, the melody instrument. The guitar is harmonic structure. I`m not a good enough guitarist to improvise on it.
Paul Simon
It`s part of our nature. As much as I love (brother and guitarist Eddie), if you put us in a room with no one else for 15 minutes, we`d be at each other`s throats.
Alex Van Halen
It wasn`t a nice situation. There was a wedge being driven between myself and my brother (Dan, the guitarist in The Darkness) and that`s the relationship I`ve had with him all his life. It really was an awful, awful environment.
Justin Hawkins
It wasn`t a class system where I was the better guy and he was the second-rate guy. That was his role and my role was to play the solos. But he took great pride in his technique as a rhythm guitarist.
Wayne Kramer
It was by listening to Goodman`s band, that I began to notice the guitarist Charlie Christian, who was one of the first musicians to play solos in a big band set-up.
Alvin Lee
In my opinion I do not think I am a better guitarist than Ace, I honestly think we`re both different, and we both brought something unique to the musical.
Vinnie Vincent
In jazz, you listen to what the bass player is doing and what the drummer is doing, what the pianist and the guitarist is doing, and then you play something that compliments that, so you are thinking simultaneously and thinking ahead.
David Amram
I woke up to everybody screaming that we`re all gonna die. I was in this dream state and wasn`t even sure what was happening. We landed on the door side down and Andy (Williams, guitarist) busted out the back window with his head, so we got out through th...
Keith Buckley
I was training to be a lawyer... I was president of the law society at Glasgow University, and my bass guitarist was my secretary of my law society; the lead guitarist and writer worked at the law firm that I worked.

I started getting calls to do sessions as a guitarist. I never thought I was that good of a guitarist, though I knew I could hold my own.
