On the other hand, most critics will agree that as a solo artist given free reign over his work, Beck has been less consistent. One thing is for sure: Jeff Beck is one of the most skilled guitar players around, wide open to musical experiment, and his early work foreshadowed a number of genres including over-the-top blues/rock, fusion and metal.

    My first ever guitar amp was a classic Fender Twin Reverb with Celestion speakers. It was big, it was heavy (as in weight, not sound), it was loud, it had tubes (or valves, if you’re European), and I had no clue how to use it. Oh sure, I could plug in my Japanese Fender Strat knock-off and make sound (read more)
