"What I love about the world is that there are so many diverse people in it. Everybody does something different. And that's what I love about the guitar. It's an instrument where there are so many different experts in so many different fields. There's no other instrument like that. Flamenco guitar, classical guitar, blues guitar, rock guitar, country, flat picking, bluegrass -it's incredible! And you'll find real virtuosi in all those fields" - Benjamin Verdery
