Want to be in a feature in Guitar Techniques?

Every month in GT's news section, Front End, we feature a short Q&A with a great guitar player. Recent inclusions have been Buddy Whittington, Otis Grand, Steve Morse, Paul Gilbert, Derek Trucks and Ronny Jordon.

We'd like to pepper the magazine with its readers too, so why not email us yours?

Check out the questions below, answer each in a sentence or two, and email them to neville.marten@futurenet.com - no guarantees mind, but the better they are, the more likely we are to print them!

Here are your questions...

If a music chart was put in front of you, could you read it?

Do guitar cables really make a difference? What make are yours?

Is there anyone´s playing (past or present) that you´re slightly jealous of? (And why?)
