The Future Isn't What It Used to Be - with Special Guest Zach Adkins
RSS Feed Zachary Adkins is the winner of the Ibanez Flying Fingers Award and owner of Adkins Guitar & Music Lessons. Zach, more importantly, is Sam's guitar instructor. He has a new instrumental album called "The Future Isn't What it Used to Be." He is the author of a book called; "Guitar Efficiency: Daily Exercise and Tablature Workbook with Journal"
Sam and Zach discuss Zach's two passions; playing guitar, and being an entrepreneur.
Zach discusses how he learned guitar, and his father's influence in his learning how to play by ear.
They talk extensively about Sam's favorite guitar player, George Lynch, and how Lynch has influenced Sam. As a result of having to study Lynch's playing, Zach explains how Lynch has influenced Zach. They discuss the Big three 80's guitars players (Eddie Van Halen, Randy Rhoads and George Lynch) and where George Lynch falls in that trio.
A discussion of shred vs. feel ensues as they discuss Zach's new album.
