Fanning compared his solo work to Powderfinger recordings , saying , " when a problem came up in the studio , especially guitar-wise , I 've always had Darren and Ian to call on . They could usually come up with something good . But I played all the guitar on it , and my abilities are fairly limited " and that " Powderfinger is my real job and I 'm looking forward to doing it again "
