One of the most innovative electric guitarists since Jimi Hendrix, Ulmer is known for pioneering “harmolodics,” defined by Richard Cook in the Penguin Guide to Jazz, as quoted in materials from Ulmer’s publicist, as “a theory which dispenses with the normal hierarchy of ‘lead’ and ‘rhythm’ instruments, allowing free harmonic interchange at all levels of a group.”
Ulmer told Guitar Player’s Bill Milkowski, “It’s a unison tuning where every string is tuned to the same note, like a one string guitar… It’s total freedom.”
