Play the pentatonic blues scale, just for fret- and pick-hand dexterity and to mesh them both together.

To me, blues is more of a feel and a vibe, rather than sitting there and saying, 'Well, I'm gonna play bluesy now.'

The easiest place to get a natural harmonic on any string is at the 12th fret. All you do is lightly rest one of your left-hand fingers on a string directly above that fret and then pick it.

Losing control of your pick on stage sucks, so I scratch some deep X's into both sides of my pick with something sharp, like a dart.

Man, don't get me started on Pat Travers. That dude writes killer blues rock and roll riffs.

Who doesn't like to play Black Sabbath tunes!
