Marks's Secret Identity: Andy Summers!

[asb]

Premier Guitar: What are you stringing [your guitar] with?

Andy Summers: What? [Incredulously.] Your kind of questions are ridiculously lightweight. Should we talk about the music, not strings? This is like a classic bozo interview. What strings do you use? Are you serious? I don’t ****ing know. Somebody else puts them on. Amazing. I can’t believe you just asked me that. I don’t really want to talk about it. This is insulting.

Haha !!! 😄 Classic case of not researching your interview. But if you don't ask a guitarist about their guitar for a guitar mag, aren't you doing your readers a disservice? I mean, point taken--not everyone cares about strings but some do.

That's why Guitar Player has a sidebar with the players guitar tech asking those mundane questions.

No, they'd be doing the advertisers a disservice....

Awesome response.

He should have asked Summers about Neil Sedaka.

"I have relied on D'Addario strings & accessories since 1982. They're the best, in every regard."

Hmm, sounds like he has an idea what he uses on their website. Haha !!! 😄 He must have forgotten. 😜👍🎸
