I was born out of classical music.
I just want to make a classic. Classic is the standard. I'm just trying to make music that will last a lifetime.
Kids like classic rock, and so do adults.
I could care less about sitting around and practicing the guitar for hours a day and trying to be the best guitar player on the planet.
It is dishonest the way that people suddenly think they've found guitars, and wear their guitar as a badge.
I was never really a virtuoso guitar player per se.
I was too broke to buy a guitar so I more borrowed guitars from friends.
I've always thought that the act of playing the guitar was the act of trying to make a point of playing the guitar.
Still others want a traditional guitar sound if they call you for guitar.
I feel like I'm just learning how to play the guitar. I mean, really learning to play the guitar.
The time I burned my guitar it was like a sacrifice. You sacrifice the things you love. I love my guitar.
If you play acoustic guitar you're the depressed, sensitive guy.
I was just a punk-rock kid who never played acoustic guitar.
The ultimate guitar players can play every scale in the book.
The most obvious thing you can't do with a guitar synthesizer is to really sound like a guitar.
I've always been at war with the guitar. All vocalists are fighting a war with the electric rhythm guitar.
Personally, I think young musicians need to learn to play more than one style. Jazz can only enhance the classical side, and classical can only enhance the jazz. I started out playing classical, because you have to have that as a foundation.
My family were all into classical music, and I found that very intimidating.
I grew up listening to - it's kind of embarrassing - all classical music.
I got obsessed with classical music, I got obsessed with Chopin, with playing the piano.
Jazz, for me, is a closed circuit, like the term baroque in the world of classical music.
