7. Tone is in the hands. But a good amp sure helps.
8. It's all about the joy of playing. Find the joy, you'll find the tone.
9. Got a sound in your head? Play it with heart, and it'll come out of your hands. Hear it? Play it. The only thing stopping you is you.
10. It's all about the music. The rest is GAS.

An amp isn't worth beans unless it is turned on with a guitar plugged into it. And the guitar isn't worth beans unless it is plugged into the amp.
Combined they're still worthless unless you make the time to play them as best you can, undivided attention given. Turn off the phones, shut the doors and just play.
