Spider Tom Defining your guitar style? (31) RE: Defining your guitar style? 06 Apr 00


Style, as with anything starts out as a sloppy reflection of your influences.
In time you will often develop your own style, especially if you play as many types of music as you can.
Playing in sessions is especially helpful as it takes you to that place whare you just respond instinctively instead of consciously.
The old blues greats wouldn't play the same thing twice in the same way, all credit too them, they knew you go with the feel of the mucic, let the song carry you and you will find your style will float to the surface.
The tragedy is there are many fine players who think it sacrilidge to ,not copy the original, who wants to be a human jukebox?
My style, is my style.
