Anyway I think the main problem you have is associating every guitar player with these flaws (flaws which I've never even considered, let alone heard of before). The truth is, no matter how strong you think a stereotype is, it's not true for everyone. Anyway, if we were to put an ACCURATE stereotype on guitarists, it would most likely be a pot smoking, chill guy who just wants to jam and have fun. Not power hungry villains aimed to take over The Music.

Mate, I have no grudge towards guitar players or any musician with an ounce of talent, regardless of their chosen discipline, my "anti" guitarist statement was just a reaction to this unbelievably ignorant comment....

You obviously did not understand me correctly, and I was only using Jimmy Page as an example because a lot of people look up to him, myself included, I worship Led Zep, probably why he was the first person to spring to mind.
I just do not like that comment made by sandman because it implies that unless you play guitar then you are a pathetic waste of time and do not deserve the name musician, which is utter bollocks!
Pal, I am not having a go at you but please read the full thread then you would understand my reaction in the correct context instead of accusing me of stereotyping guitarists, which I absolutely did not intend to do.

Again, I don't actually belive all guitarists think they invented music, just another reaction to an ignorant comment coming from someone with dubious knowledge of true electronica...
I honestly do not understand why these silly, misinformed comments irritate me so much, and apologies if my generalisation offends you, but if its ok for anti electro people to be ignorant towards my type of music then they are gonna get it right back, childish I know but hey...
