INTERVIEWS_LITA FORD
Stuart Bull meets The Queen of Metal, Lita Ford and guitarist Gary Hoey, in

acoustic Lita’s playing? It was love at first sight with a Taylor GS8e, she reveals.

Lita Ford is one of Rock’s true survivors
- a female guitar player who has made
a career in hard Rock, both in her first
band, The Runaways, and since 1979 as
a successful solo artist. In fact that hard
Rock edge turned positively Metallic
back in the 1980s when she had several
hit singles, including a duet with Ozzy
himself, earning herself the title The
Queen of Metal.
Best known to gear heads for her long
standing endorsement of Seymour
Duncan-powered BC Rich guitars (most
recently A Warlock NJ Deluxe and a
Bitch Doubleneck), Lita has recently
reinforced the reputation of Taylor
guitars for being the Rock guitarist’s
acoustic of choice, by adopting a
Taylor GS8e which, as she reveals in
her interview with Stuart Bull, she
discovered thanks to Def Leppard’s
Vivian Campbell.
iGuitar Magazine Issue 7
The Taylor will be getting a serious
work-out on Ford’s long-awaited new
album, due for release early this year,
titled Living Like A Runaway.
Joining The Queen of Metal on stage at
the recent NAMM show in California,
was fellow band member - and noted
solo shredder - Gary Hoey, who also
spoke with Stuart Bull, revealing that
he and Lita Ford have been working
on a lot of harmony lead guitar for the
forthcoming album (spooky coincidence
time, given this issue’s harmony guitar
tech feature!).
There’s plenty more NAMM 2012
coverage on our website iguitarmag.com
- but we couldn’t resist the temptation to
run this footage as soon as we got back
from the show!
