Jimi restringing his guitar. I wonder if that baby knew what was about to happen to it?

I would challenge anybody to come up with a better design for a guitar. The Stratocaster is as good as it gets.

Jeff Beck doing A Day in the Life by The Beatles. Recorded in London at Ronnie Scott’s in 2007. Supreme touch.

David Gilmour “On an Island”

Stunnning tone and feel from David Gilmour here in this great solo in On an Island from the Live in Gdansk concert DVD. Recorded in August 2006 as the last show of the On an Island tour. The definition of tasty chops right there.

Robert Cray “Time Makes Two”

Posted on October 18, 2009 by tastychops

If you’ve ever been on the fence about Robert Cray just watch this great take of his track Time Makes Two. Recorded amongst a who’s who of guitar players (John Mayer, Eric Johnson, Jeff Beck, Santana, Buddy Guy et al) at Eric Clapton’s Crossroads Guitar Festival in June 2004 Cray outshone every other performer there. He digs so deep. I can’t think of any other modern blues performer who could touch this.
