I have an electric Fender and a Telecaster. I have a Taylor and a Martin. I want to get more guitars for more sounds.
A lot of the 'Back In Black' stuff is really challenging.
There are no electric guitars. 'Hunchback' has arias; it's operatic.
Rock & roll is not so much a question of electric guitars as it is striped pants.
Basically we're a blues oriented rock 'n' roll band… easy to listen to.
I love Gibsons, and Nationals, too. There's something magical about them.
Rock n' roll! It's the music of puberty.
In 1965, Gibson made the red one I use now, and a black one, which was the first black 335 they ever made.
To me, the sax is rock n' roll, even though electric guitars kind of pushed it aside for a while.
We've always been just an American rock n' roll band.

If you make rock music with guitars in it, the Radiohead comparison is inevitable.
I don't really play overseas stuff. I'm a bit of a dinosaur in that way. You gonna improve on a Les Paul or Fender Stratocaster? Those are perfect designs, and there is nothing to add really.
The first time I heard Kiss, I knew that was the type of music I was attracted to.
Gibson has been making the finest electric guitars the world has ever witnessed for over 70 years. They are as American as God, guns and rock and roll.
It is, we wanted to make a record that reflected our love of Hard-Rock music and it is sort of Metal though we don't really describe ourselves as Metal.
I don't listen to Nirvana plugged anymore. I think there's a whole group of people who have semi-forgotten that Nirvana used electric guitars because of the 'Unplugged' album. It's so great.

When I saw Kiss, and it was monsters with guitars, I thought this was the greatest thing that ever happened.
Guitars are fun. There are plenty of different kinds to play. They look cool. They sound cool. Don't you want to play guitar?
And I now think that Stratocasters and Telecasters are way cool.
I believe in rock and roll and heavy music in general.
I've always stuck with Gibsons. I've had Guilds and Fenders, too, but I always wind up going back to Gibsons.
I do have electric guitars, because I've always believed, especially when I'm working in the studio with other bands as producer, that there should be a really nice Strat around.
