1 and 11 for the guitar asks!!!
Thanks for the ask.
1. how long have you been playing guitar? on and off for about 10 years. Unfortunately, work and some other life chaos has gotten in the way of routinely practicing at various points.
11. what guitarist do you think is underrated?
I have a list.
**Mick Ronson, I mean 70s Bowie, Ian Hunter, Lou Reed, Mott the Hopple, Bob Dylan, Morrissey, Elton John, and all his solo work. Everyone probably knows his work but has no damned idea who he is. That sucks.
**Steve Clark, I know all my rabid Leppard fans here know but so many people in the larger world don't know how great his guitar skill was.
**Billy Gibbons, I love ZZ Top and maybe not the most notable but I love his use of harmonics and distortion so much.
**Vitto Bratta. I think he is even pretty unknown to people in the glam metal scene and to be honest, until I met and chatted with Mike Tramp I never really appreciated his playing/writing as much as it should have been appreciated.
**Seth from Behemoth. He's a great guitarist and even some Behemoth fans forget about him because a lot of times he chooses not to be in the band photos because he is considered more of a sessions/touring guitarist and yet there he is on every album and every tour since the early 2000s.
**Buck Dharma from Blue Oyster Cult... just the riff in Godzilla alone.
**Jake E Lee- He gets left out because he was with Ozzy between Rhoades and Wylde and everyone just thinks his guitar work belongs to one of them a lot of the time.
**And don't even get me started on how many people claim to love Rock and Metal but have no appreciation for Blue guitarists. This is a whole other list and topic for later.

Faster than a speeding bullet
I've out-flown a few, yes, I have
But I must be flying awful slow sometimes, baby
I can't keep up with you
I got X-ray vision
And I can see, see through steel, too, baby
I know there's something wrong with me
'Cause I can't see through you
