Allan Holdsworth is a British fusion jazz guitar player and composer. He's one of the key figures of fusion jazz, but doesn't always get the recognition he deserves.

Allan Holdsworth taught himself how to play guitar, he's got a very advanced knowledge of chords and scales, but he can't read note script.

Allan has a very unique sound and musical interpretation. His horn-like tone and phrasing is a result from:

On the first place, his hands. In an interview he says that you make the sound with your hands and you can fine-tune it with your gear.
His guitar rig: the guitars, amps and effects he uses (see further).
His legato playing style, he avoids picking notes (the contrary of players like Al Di Meola).
The use of the tremolo bar.

A legato style of playing requires a lot of sustain. The traditional way of getting sustain is using distortion, but Allan Holdsworth never liked using distortion to get sustain. That's when his search for the right gear started.
