Greg Griffin is an expressive and driven musician/guitarist currently based in Toledo, Ohio (U.S.A.) who denotes his playing style as instrumental hard rock, as one might want to hear on his most recent recording, "Greg Griffin".  His workhorse guitar is a Gibson Explorer. Griffin has been playing guitar since 1982, and truthfully shares his career objective, "I'd like to release three more CDs in the next five years and do music for commercials and documentaries."
When the attempt was made to uncover his definitive or preferred effect for the guitar, Griffin purposefully responded with, "Delay," and then volunteered his musicial goals, "Energy, excitement and mood." He keeps open the possibility to, at some point, study classical guitar, and is at the moment listening to Dream Theater, Michael Schenker, classical music and Eric Johnson. His most important gratification? "When someone tells you they enjoyed your CD and you can tell they are sincere," he muses emphatically.
 Griffin winds up by detailing long-term and forthcoming endeavors insightfully, by saying, "Working on third instrumental CD and a vocal project. Putting together a trio that showcases instrumental music."
Guitar Nine Records visitors have compared the playing style and/or musical approach of Greg Griffin to guitarists such as Eric Johnson and others.
Griffin's discography (available here at Guitar Nine Records) includes several solo albums ("Greg Griffin", "Presence").
