The Robben Ford all know and love is a player with a taste for the finer things in life, for Dumble tube amps, vintage Fender electric guitars… He’s also a player who has never had any trouble finding what he wants to say on the instrument.
So it was reassuring in a way that, when he stopped by Guitar World for a quickfire Q&A that he admitted that he didn’t work on his picking enough, the guitar was actually the hardest of all instruments to learn (and explains why), and that he started out on an acoustic guitar with a punishing setup.
