Asher  Black
“Prometheus, you’ll remember, stole fire from the gods and gave it to the rest of us. That’s what I want to do with guitar instruction and music theory. I want to steal it from the fog of ancient rubrics and the rarified prison of control represented by the academy. I want it liberated from the pulpit and the throne, the pit and the stick . . .”
Asher Black, The Guitar Decoder Ring: Featuring SIGIL - the New Language of Guitar

“Always remember a good guitarist should be able to make any guitar sound good.”
André van Eck, From Beginner to Excelling at Guitar & Bass
