I've made my own music, and the way I've always described it is Peggy Lee with an electric guitar, or Billie Holiday with some PJ Harvey in there.

I've always loved the electric guitar: to hold it and work it and hear what it does is unreal.

I'm not too picky about guitars. I love to collect them, mostly oddballs, but I'm not married to any brand or model. Whatever guitar has the best character for the song is the one I want to use, because if you've got a style, you're going to sound like yourself no matter what guitar you play.

I've always liked the electric guitar better. Even though the acoustic can be a very sexy and mysterious instrument, I can go to way more places with an electric.

Nobody seems to play Yamaha electrics, but it's the best guitar I own.

I've always been at war with the guitar. All vocalists are fighting a war with the electric rhythm guitar.

Whoever heard of an electric violin, electric cello or, for that matter, an electric singer?

It was my love for the guitar that first got me into music and singing.

Besides being a guitar player, I'm a big fan of the guitar. I love that damn instrument.

I have to say, I do love the Ovation guitars. If I had one guitar to play, it would be that one, and it's got nothing to do with having my name on it. I absolutely rely on it.
