Everything I Do Is Usually Totally Spontaneous.

Jeff Beck Is My Idol .. Sometimes He Finds Notes That I Just Do Not Have On My Guitar. Frank Zappa's Another One .. I Loved Frank Zappa ... I Do Think Van Halen Reinvented The Guitar ... He's An Excellent Musician, A Shrewd Guitarist And As A Person He's Wonderful.

Stevie Ray Vaughan Was Very Intense. Maybe That's What Caught Everybody's Attention. As A Player, He Didn't Do Anything Amazing.

I Don't Use The Twang Bar Anymore. It's Become Too Popular.

I Criticize My Own Work Pretty Harshly.

I See Someone Like John Williams, The Classical Player, And The Amount Of Discipline And The Natural Ability That Man Has Is So Frightening. That Requires So Much Natural Talent. And I Think My Talent Came From Just Practising, And I Feel A Bit Intimidated When I See Players That Good.
