I have always been fascinated with guns. I grew up in America so granted, it is part of our heritage and it is written into the laws of how this country is run.
There are guys in country music who are wizards on the guitar. If you're a country fan, you're used to it. But as a rock guitar player, you listen.
The really pop country stuff can sound a little bland because they put in strings and horns and all of that.
It's probably listening to country music that got me to start playing a lot cleaner, not as distorted.
