Similar can be said for Tony Iommi. He made his own fingertips and had to downtune to reduce resistance. That's a man who was determined to play guitar!

Bob Mould is still knocking out some good stuff.


Like you say, depends what you're looking for. I'm not that interested in technical players - or any sort of musical virtuosity. But someone who can wrench a new sound out of the guitar and write some cool tunes in the process gets my vote. Doug Martsch from Built To Spill would be another.


But if we're talking about the traditional guitar heroes, Slash is hard to argue against for pure melodic quality.

    • I can't answer your question. But on them generally: it's changed hands in the last year or so, I think. I paid £35 for interior and exterior and they did a crap job. I'll go to the one on Herne Hill (or just do it myself if health allows) next time.
    • Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays! 
    • Was that the one where you put a coin in and it squirted water at you? what was the name of the one in hanway street - whatever you ordered it came on a segmented tray like you get in prison (I imagine). Prices were a steal.
