The Stainless-steel Frets Were A Major Breakthrough,

I Was Just A Punk Kid, Trying To Get A Sound Out Of A Guitar That I Couldn't Get Off The Rack, So I Built One Myself ... I Wanted A Gibson Type Of Sound But With A Strat Vibrato .. I Went To Town Painting It And I Put Three Pickups Back In, But They Don't Work - Only The Rear One Works

On 'honeybabysweetiedoll' I Used A Whammy, A Boss Oc-3 Octave Box, A Sustainer And A Line 6 Dl4 Delay Modeler. That's Only On The Intro, Where All Those Weird Noises Are Happening.

We Make Music For A Living. Like I've Always Said, If You Like What You're Doing, You're Halfway There; If Someone Else Likes It, That's Even Better. If They Don't Like It, At Least You Like It. Not To Be Selfish, But You Kind Of Have To Be.

It Makes Me Feel Kind Of Weird, But Obviously The Man Upstairs Gave Me Something And It Touches People, And I'm Just So Blessed.

If Your Going To Learn To Play Lead Guitar, Get An Electric Guitar .. It Doesn't Have To Be An Expensive One .. Acoustic Guitars Aren't Good For Learning Lead, Because You Can't Play Up Very High On The Neck And They Take Heavier-gauge Strings Which Makes It Hard To Bend Notes
