Ben was more improvisational, and relied less on methodology, and basically is a guitarist who switched to bass, whereas Jeff has a more traditional approach to playing bass in a band, and has a great sense of what his band sounds like, and we lock up nicely.
Matt Cameron
Eric Clapton is my dream guitarist.
Carole King
I can turn on some jazz guitarist, and he won't do a thing for me, if he's not playing electrically. But Jeff Beck's great to listen to.
Ritchie Blackmore
I don't see myself as such an important guitarist.
Ritchie Blackmore
I never considered myself a songwriter, but now since I've been working with Nick Lowe, I am contributing to an extent. But I'm the guitarist and he's not, so we compliment each other in a way.
Dave Edmunds
I set myself up to be a bass guitarist and bass players get a lot more work than people like me.
John Entwistle
I think Wes Montgomery is the greatest jazz guitarist that ever lived.
Kevin Eubanks
I trained as a classical guitarist but that was it.
Colin Greenwood
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.
Gerard Butler
I wouldn't count myself as being a true blues guitarist because I feel you have to live it.
Robin Trower
I'm a crap guitarist and I find it really hard writing on my own.
Siobhan Fahey
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 been invited to do a trio with a fantastic jazz guitarist and a harmonica player.
Karen Black
If I could sing, I wouldn't be a guitarist.
Robin Trower
If you're a guitarist, you should not be intimidated by using your instrument as a synthesizer, but you shouldn't feel that you have to own one, either.
Andy Summers
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
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 the past, I tried to be more of a typical session guitarist. I wasn't so concerned with impressing anybody.
Brad Paisley
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
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.
