Couldn't agree more but did prefer them pre Matt Taylor.

For a couple of hot Sydney bands from back in the day check out Kavas Jute and Mecca, Mecca at one stage had a singer by the name of Clive Coulson who was a Led Zep roadie

For me you get guys like -

Roine Stolt (The Flower Kings/Transatlantic)

Alan Morse (Spocks Beard) - although there is no way I could use his strange pickless technique

And Gutherie Govan's playing on Steven Wilson's "Hand Cannot Erase" and The Raven who refused to sing" albums is blowing me away at the moment

You learn to play guitar and then you learn to play Telecaster, I'm still struggling with the first bit of the equation :)

My guitar preference is the Telecaster ,well my G&L ASAT special, more Fender then Fender, but i have a few teles and a few more on my to do list.
