In what seems like a former life, playing country. I did a fair amount of this kind of thing.

No Bill I didn't pick up electric guitar until my late twenties. It was an economic decision at the time but I love learning new things, so not exactly a hardship.

Laurence in the hands of a talented musician like you any instrument suonds great!

I never played so much elettric instrument (exept some bass when I was young in a rock band) but I love to hear great electric guitarists from Charlie Cristian to BB King, Jimi, Mark Knofler and Bill Frisell (just to quote some of my heros) they have been a great source of ispiration for me...

Thank you Paolo!



This is just one style of course. I have also studied the players you mentioned. Probably my favorite to play is at the intersection of jazz and blues, players like Robben Ford.
