Love the way that talks about guitar and music. Very open and relaxed approach.

It's so true what he says, I find after about 15 mins of solid playing I really start getting into my stride

Always a pleasure to see/hear Doug play, one of my all time favorite guitarists. Thanks for posting this, Guitar World.

Doug Aldrich with Whitesnake was one of the best moments in my life.

I came across Doug when I was visiting LA. I had never heard of the band "Lion". We just happened to walk in a club and they were playing. I was like, "Oh my goodness!" Then, I bought Dangerous Attraction and my doors were blown off. It's like, "Where has this guy been?" I also liked his work with Dio. He is such a great rhythm player. Reminds me of Sykes, Zakk Wylde

Killer guitar player with really awesome style, tone and more please.

Aldrich always has that kind of guitar sound that I love.

Doug Aldrich is awesome. Love his fiery playing on Dio’s “Evil or Divine” DVD.

When I saw the announcement of this I was hoping Doug was going to use his new Suhr Aura. Looking forward to hear more from him and the Aura.
