The Plectrum is for Pussies.
February 18th, 2008 | by gordon |
Years ago, I read an interview article with Jeff Beck. Other than the mentioned achievements, learned lessons and gear setups, he made a very strong statement; the plectrum is for pussies.
Jeff Beck plays live without a pick as preached. Only depending on finger power. Clouding his fingers with powder and playing the guitar with skill and a lot tonal quality. Scary thing is that he has control over the whammy bar, volume knob and tone knob; all in one go! Mind you that he is from the Eric Clapton/Jimmy Page era.
The ability like that is compatible to managing clients expectations, producing great design and have lots of pleasure at the same time for a designer. Wow.
