Why Guitar?

Is there any better instrument? The guitar can go anywhere, and no campfire is complete without it. It also allows you to play an enormous variety of styles, from pop/rock to funk, blues, jazz, metal, or classical music.

My initial spark came from Angus & Malcolm Young of AC/DC – or simply the band’s incredible guitar sound. At 16, I founded my first band, and after that, there was no turning backsee that light? The band!
