Marcus delivers a half-dozen tips to help you become a singular guitarist.
SIX OF ONE

1. LISTEN TO OTHER GUITARISTS “You can learn so much just by paying attention to others. My dad would leave me with a record to learn while he was at work, and that would be kind of like my assignment for that day. It would be things like the first few Lynyrd Skynyrd albums with Ed King on them. I really dug his playing. I loved ‘Saturday Night Special,’ and I remember learning the solo for ‘Free Bird’ and a few others. Another really big one for me was Heart with Dreamboat Annie; Roger Fisher did some great things that I tried to learn. The three big Strat guys as well: Hendrix, Robin Trower and Stevie Ray Vaughan.”
