I've always dabbled on guitar, but never took lessons.

I took lessons for about everything you could imagine - gymnastics to karate to flute and piano. My mom always definitely kept me in some kind of class or program, but for guitar, I kinda gave up on then kinda just taught myself. Same thing with piano. I've never been good with following lessons.

I never took guitar lessons. I took classical piano lessons from the age of six when we lived in Holland.

I never took a music lesson in my life, it just came naturally.

I taught myself how to play the guitar. I never studied music.

I took some lessons as a kid but trained myself by ear. I did it the way jazz musicians used to learn years ago, which is to play records and slow them down to figure out the notes. At first I tried to imitate Red Garland, who was my favorite jazz pianist.

When I was a kid I never learned to play. I actually got in bands through watching people play and copying them.

I've never taken a lesson in my life, and I can play every instrument there is. I play by ear, but I can fool anybody into thinking I went to some conservatory of music.

I've never liked having like a set kind of schedule of training. Even when I was doing guitar lessons, I never used to practice.
