I believe every guitar player inherently has something unique about their playing. They just have to identify what makes them different and develop it.

I spend a lot of time near water.

I can only listen to what I'm working on, at the time. I can't listen to anything else because I don't want to copy it.

I don't like to tell people what format they can get things in, or say, "I'm only going to release this on vinyl and nothing else. You have to come to my world." I don't like to say that to people either. But, I do think there's a loss of romance.

The guitar to me, from the classical/gut-string guitar right through to Hendrix, et cetera, has all the range [of sound]. Within those six strings it is incredible what one can get sound-wise. It's just down to imagination, really.

I know where I'm going musically. I can see my pattern and I'm going much slower than I thought I'd be going.

I'm still terrified of flying. I really have to get drunk to fly. I've found that I've developed fears I never had before... fears of heights, claustrophobia... only in cities, though, never in the country.
