What motivated you to take up the guitar?

Sorry for my ignorance, who are those guys?

Jorma Kaukonen (the reason I learned acoustic blues), and Jack Casady (my original bass hero). Jorma will turn 80 this year, and looks and sounds better than ever. He also has the best series of quarantine streams out there. Check it out.

You got your answer - Jack Casady and Jorma Kaukonen. Jefferson Airplane and Hot Tuna. Jack gets mentioned here a lot because his Guild Starfire bass was modified by the folks who eventually founded Alembic who had a lot of successes in rock and roll technology.

Thank you, I will check them out a bit more. I know the names and bands, but not the faces.
