RE: why do people think looping is just for guitar?

If rock music is the dominant or most visible/listened to/played form of
music around today, then it's true the Guitar is the dominant or most
visible/listened to/played instrument in the rock genre.

Thus, it represents the largest market for "aftermarket" products - like
effects etc.

IMHO,
David

        It's more the perception of looping by others. I regularly see
it being
        depicted as something for guitar players, whether it's by
salesmen or media
        or other musicians. *That's* what mysifies me! Is this just
because lots of
        guitar players do it? Or because it's been guitar oriented
people involved
        in manufacturing them and therefore that's where they place it?
