Jonny Greenwood
Radiohead / The Smile
Radiohead's inventive multi-instrumentalist whose unconventional approach to guitar redefined the instrument's role in rock music. His experimental techniques and electronic integration shaped modern art rock.
SIGNATURE TONE
Aggressive, angular, and futuristic. Known for the 'dead' sound of solid-state distortion, the stutter of killswitches, and the ghostly wail of the Ondes Martenot. Seamlessly blends traditional guitar with electronic manipulation.
