“Who are your favorite guitar players?” I’m often asked.
Loaded question.
Steve Vai. Lighnin Hopkins. Derek Trucks. Chris Olivia. Edward Van Halen. Jimi Hendrix. Jimmy Page.
I can’t keep up with myself when it comes to great guitar. My god. I mean you have John Frusicante, and Dave Nararro (look up “Ocean Size” and tell me you’ve ever been the same).
How about Jerry Cantrell of Alice in Chains.... Check this out. Headbanging love. The backwards strum and bend of that G note on the low E. It’s out of this world.
There’s so much to love about guitar. Acoustic or electric. There’s so much to conquer or to succumb to (that’s too many “to’s”, sorry). So much to absorb.
Dive in to some of these references/tracks if you can. Share some of your guitar faves, too!
Love,
Mark
