リッチーブラックモアのアルバム『Diffcult to Cure』の『第9』アレンジを聴いてファンになり、『Spotlight Kid』を聴いてストラトキャスターに目覚める。以後様々なストラトを手にし、20年以上ストラトオンリーで毎月ライブ活動を行っている。
ストラトに対するこだわりは強く、『ギターマガジン』、米国誌『VINTAGE GUITAR MAGAZINE』に所有ストラトが掲載されたことがある。翻訳書として、2002年Fender Accessories Catalogue等に掲載されている『The Fender Stratocaster』第4版がある。
ストラトへの改良は外見からみたら何処を変えたかわからないのがポリシーである。
