Here is what some famous players had to say about the guitar:
“My guitar is not a thing. It is an extension of myself. It is who I am.”
- Joan Jett
“If you don’t know the blues… there’s no point in picking up the guitar and playing rock and roll or any other form of popular music.”
- Keith Richards
“So, my big brother was playing guitar and I figured I’d try it too.”
- Stevie Ray Vaughan
“The guitar is a small orchestra. It is polyphonic. Every string is a different color, a different voice.”
- Andre Segovia
“I went to my friend’s house one day, and he had an electric guitar he had just bought with a tiny little amp. I turned the volume up to 10 and I hit one chord, and I said, I’m in love.”
- Ace Frehley
“It was my 16th birthday – my mom and dad gave me my Goya classical guitar that day. I sat down, wrote this song, and I just knew that that was the only thing I could ever really do – write songs and sing them to people.”
- Stevie Nicks
“I don’t read music. I don’t write it. So I wander around on the guitar until something starts to present itself.”
- James Taylor
“I don’t understand why some people will only accept a guitar if it has an instantly recognizable guitar sound. Finding ways to use the same guitar people have been using for 50 years to make sounds that no one has heard before is truly what gets me off.”
- Jeff Beck
“I just managed to convince my grandmother that it was a worth while that was something to do, you know, and when I did finally get the guitar, it didn’t seem that difficult to me, to be able to make a good noise out of it.”
- Eric Clapton
