I think it is "possible" to separate guitar players into two categories: 
great because of the right hand and great because of the left hand. 
Pete is physically a great guitar player mostly because of his right hand
while most "great" guitar players (correct me if I am wrong) are labelled 
great because of a flying left hand (or neck hand--meaning no offence to 
those of us who are left handed.) Does this make sense at all?
