The subject often came up as to how well a guitar player Elvis actually was. Scotty Moore often said that Elvis had an uncanny and amazing sense of timing and rythem.
About the time Elvis started to move on stage to work the audience is when the guitar became more of a prop.
The impact of seeing Elvis on TV and on stage with a guitar inspired people to pick up a guitar and learn to play.
Elvis was definitely not easy on his instruments he had a very aggressive strumming style and would break strings constantly.
Let me know what you think!! xoxo
