Guitarman's Creed

This is my Telecaster. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
My Telecaster is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life.
Without me, my Telecaster is useless. Without my Telecaster, I am silent. I must play my Telecaster true. I must strum clearer than my enemy, who is trying to outplay me. I must outplay him before he outplays me. I will...

My Telecaster and I know that what counts in music is not the notes we play, the volume of our amp, nor the feedback we produce. We know that it is the emotion that counts. We will evoke emotion...

My Telecaster is human, even as I, because it is my life. Thus, I will learn it as a brother. I will learn its quirks, its strings, its frets, its pickups, and its bridge. I will keep my Telecaster clean and ready, even as I am clean and ready. We will become part of each other. We will...

Before the audience, I swear this creed. My Telecaster and I are the defenders of my music. We are the masters of our enemy. We are the saviors of my soul.

So be it, until there is no enemy, but peace. Amen.
