Andy Summers Quotes
It is not very practical in today's world when you tour all over the place having a big band. It's been very hard for the guitar as a serious synthesizer to compete with keyboards. It's hard to avoid the past but one goes forward. More recently, I used guitar synthesizer extensively on the two albums I did with Robert Fripp. My favorite sounds are the high, spacey ones that are very ambient. Of course the playing is important but writing and the establishing of what you are going for is prime too. The most obvious thing you can't do with a guitar synthesizer is to really sound like a guitar. There was a period when I'd just come out of college where I'd been playing classical guitar and I suddenly realised that it wasn't what I wanted to do with the rest of my life. What I wanted to do was play the guitar but I don't like instrumental rock. I think it is tripe.
