I would think that someone who calls themselves The Tone King would have great tone. That is what I get for thinking...Phillip McKnight

I'll say what everyone else is thinking: you are being way too modest.At best, maybe with the bends, but due to he lack of having Gilmour-soul, it surely just sounds like pentatonic wanking to everyone else but me.

I think my constant state of “eh” keeps a bit of a fire under my ass.

I think it could fairly be summed up with “You clearly really like Steve Vai but never learned more than the minor scale”

That's a good point about how our playing evolves over the years. If the same question were asked of me in the 90's I might also say Santana, Beck and Jimi. Perhaps some Gilmour and SRV styling too. I played a lot of clean and funky stuff back then as well. I'm a mutt but I've always tried to stick to my inside voice on guitar. I'd rather not be a clone.You’re going to hear a heck of a lot more than three people in my playing. In my bar band days I would put a lot of time studying the style of iconic players when we were covering one of their songs. So right off the top of my head on those we have Keith Richards, Joe Walsh, and Pete Townshend. Townshend was an influence, the other two not so much, but they’re in there because I put the time in learning how to mimic their styles. As far as who I was really interested in when starting out, that’s pretty varied as well. But Malcolm Young and Tipton & Downing are probably the main guys. There’s some Santana in there as well.
I wouldn’t mind this compliment. Steven Seagal shreds.TT was the first guy that popped into my head. Weird to see him clean shaven in that old pic!
