I have an electric Fender and a Telecaster. I have a Taylor and a Martin. I want to get more guitars for more sounds.
At the time, it all seemed pretty normal. It was okay to have a pink guitar and glow-in-the-dark pants, and play with a drill. 1987, that was the worst year. I think that was the worst year for capes and for hair!
When I was 8 years old, I was already very interested in music.
Things like guitars and ukuleles, you should never part with it, because there will probably be good, healthy times spent, just playing and writing.
I was playing drums in church when I was six. Then I picked up the piano when I was 11 or 12.
The first piano was built long after they didn't have any at all.
I grew up in a time when being a musician and learning to be a musician was actually very wonderful.
I started with the organ and drums, and I later got into drum machines as a teenager.
I have somewhat [Taylor's or Gallagher's guitars], but I like the power of the Martins.
I've been collecting some more high-end guitars. I have an old Martin D28 from the '60s, a beautiful, classic Martin that I know I played on 'Mariachi.'
My parents got me a $25 Kent steel-string acoustic guitar when I was around 12. The following Christmas, my parents bought me a Conora electric guitar. It looked almost like a Gretsch. It cost $59, and my mom still has it.
I play the harmonium. I had learned to use the guitar for a bit before becoming a part of the music industry, but unfortunately didn't pursue it fully. I would love to learn to play the piano because it holds a unique connect for me in terms of rhythm.
I've owned about 2,000 guitars through the years because I've traded a lot and given away and sold some stuff.
Most of my instruments are handmade.
Almost 15 with music, we have so many guitars that we developed over the years. The latest one is 'The Majesty' guitar, which I'm really proud of.
Let's face it - the electric guitar is way sexier than the acoustic.
I'd love to perform in India, but I don't book the gigs. It's one of the few places I haven't played. One of the Indian instruments that I love is the sitar. I played it on some of my songs, including 'Pyramid of Cheops' and 'Crucify.'
I've got an Avalon guitar - that's the company that used to be Lowden. They come out of Ireland, and they're like these folk kind of guitars. You can pick 'em, you can strum 'em - they're quite good.
It's been very hard for the guitar as a serious synthesizer to compete with keyboards.
I don't think anything can touch the expressive range of the guitar.
I read and write classical piano and percussion, also guitar.
The only two things in life that make it worth livin' / Is guitars that tune good and firm feelin' women
I like guitars in the Fender style because they have skinny necks.
I've always wanted to smash a guitar over someone's head. You just can't do that with a piano.
One of these days, when I get tired of it all, I'll keep six guitars and the amps I'm using, and I'll have a big old auction for charity.
