Guitar Quotes

I don’t even think whether I play the blues or not, I just play whatever feels right at the moment. I also will use any gadget or device that I find that helps me achieve the sort of sound on the guitar that I want to get Picture Quote #1

I use to think that the friction was a bad thing. Everything is to ease pain in our society; pain is very much the enemy. And I don’t think that’s true. Tension is a good thing. To be pulled tight: that’s the only way you can make a proper noise on the guitar or violin Picture Quote #1

My interests are guitars, cars, and vacation. I’ve been playing guitar all my life. My dad was a professional guitarist, but I’m terrible, which lets me off the hook, so I just play for myself Picture Quote #1

I don’t separate writing songs from poetry and short fiction. In the area where I work in my house, there’s a word processor and a guitar Picture Quote #1

Learning to play the guitar is a combination of mental and motor skill acquisition. And to develop motor skill, repetition is essential... Whenever musicians have trouble executing a passage, they generally tend to blame themselves for not having enough talent. Actually, all that’s wrong is they don’t know where their fingers are supposed to go... you should learn the piece in your head before you play it. And when you do play it, play it so slow that there’s no possibility of making a mistake Picture Quote #1

I love the guitar for its harmony; it is my constant companion in all my travels Picture Quote #1

As a musician and a guitar player, I can noodle as well as anybody. But from my background as a session musician, I always try to play what is called for by the lyric and listening to the song. As a writer, that’s what I do, too Picture Quote #1

At school I had a really hard time being a guitar player. It’s like being a male ballerina in a way. It’s not the norm Picture Quote #1

I play guitar... I like to say that I’m pretty good, but it takes someone else to tell you that you’re really good Picture Quote #1

We play loud electric guitar music, and we’d hope that that doesn’t mean you have to act like an asshole Picture Quote #1

I never stop being amazed by all the different ways of playing the guitar and making it deliver a message Picture Quote #1

For me, theory has always opened things up to where I can walk into a room and just by hearing something I know exactly where to go on the guitar. I have a better time playing because I have a variety of colors to bring to the table Picture Quote #1

Generally my songs are just some riffs slung together as an excuse for a guitar solo Picture Quote #1

It’s harder to play drums than guitar, physically. I’m always kind of on the edge. I guess that’s how I play everything: on the edge of my ability Picture Quote #1

One thing I really hate about people who play both acoustic and electric is if they try to play electric style on an acoustic guitar. You must develop it as a totally different thing Picture Quote #1

I am definitely still the same kid that I was picking up the guitar at 15. But, I have definitely learned to be more flexible and roll with the punches. It’s such an unpredictable business to be in and it’s insane how things change so last minute Picture Quote #1

I never really trained to be a musician, but I’ve been playing guitar since I was around, like, 13 years old. For me, the guitar has always been the instrument that I’ve played. I play a little piano. I taught myself everything by ear. I don’t read music at all, which has not really been a hindrance Picture Quote #1

When I’m home on a break, I lock myself in my room and play guitar. After two or three hours, I start getting into this total meditation. It’s a feeling few people experience, and that’s usually when I come up with weird stuff. It just flows. I can’t force myself. I don’t sit down and say I’ve got to practice Picture Quote #1

In the early days, I had very little idea about arrangements, and I wrote songs a little flat, as it were, just on an acoustic guitar. They didn’t really have quite enough nuance Picture Quote #1

I’d much rather talk about guitar playing. I hate it when people ask me about my lyrics. I always feel like telling them to just go and read them Picture Quote #1

I only ever really take out my guitar when I’m miserable, which isn’t necessarily a very good time to do it Picture Quote #1

I pick up my guitar and play. Something might come, and then the pen comes out. Then an edit, until something comes out that you’re actually satisfied with Picture Quote #1

At some point, I had to make a decision: I could practice more and become a really great guitar player or I could work on writing better songs. There are only so many hours in the day, and I found writing songs more fulfilling than working on becoming this virtuoso guitar player Picture Quote #1

It’s much easier to work on other people’s music and play in other people’s bands as a guitar player instead of being the main songwriter and singer. That’s a really big job to do that Picture Quote #1

It’s always a pleasure when you can compose guitar parts from a strong vocal and not just put the melody on top of guitar riffs Picture Quote #1

I’ve never really been schooled in music theory. I’m a guitar player, and I attack the guitar in a certain way that it not fully unique to me, but it’s more unique that some other people Picture Quote #1
