He remained self-taught and eschewed formal music training. Holdsworth experimented with various guitars, including Hofner and Gibson, and was known for customizing Fender Stratocasters with Gibson pickups for a signature sound. He also discussed his amplifier preferences, emphasizing the significance of speaker cabinets. Holdsworth's ability to combine technical prowess with emotional expression in music was his hallmark.''
