I think jazz guitar isn't very ladylike in general. Not that it shouldn't be.

Tone is everything.

The process of selecting the tone on the guitar is an aesthetic process like any other, so you try a lot of different things.

I don't enjoy jazz guitar in general. I don't enjoy listening to a lot of it. I don't enjoy the tone. In general I've found its role in jazz to be kind of difficult.

I feel like certain people think that certain styles of music will taint their jazz style.

Jazz was more of a tool for me to use to enhance my musicality.

Tone has the living soul.

If you play the very subtle jazz tunes with acoustic pianos, acoustic bass and it's a dead standard, you are going to play very differently. It depends on the music.

Tone is everything in TV.

I do find modern jazz quite tricky.
