Any Good Guitar Magazine to recommend?
- Thread starter NewGuy
- Start date
Guitar Technique - Lessons and more lessons, you can never finish all the lessons in one month. In fact I ocassionally dig out some 1999 mag to play some Vai stuff. My fav.
Guitarist - Good gear reviews, some good lessons on some genres. A well rounded mag. A lot of stuff to read. Will create a lot of GAS!
Total Guitar - News/gossip, gear review, intro lessons (IMO they are quite basic). Good for starters, I started buying them when I was a kid then I go Guitarist, then now I only read GT.
All comes with CD, all from future publishing in UK. I personally don't like mag from across the Atlantic as much.

Haha... char... really appreciate that... I have just gotten total guitar... apparently it is something I am looking for... haha... I also have guitar techniques...
GT is really good as a teaching material, where as TG is more holistic with materials on artist and gears and all things to spur interest. 1 thing to beware though, for beginners like me GT is a bit high on difficulty level and the whole mag is lesson thru out... might kill interest if you are not serious.
Luckily I am at the stage where I won't stop playing the guitar... entertainment and leisure wise... TG is my man...
Now there is one disadvantage, my wallet is crying... might have to decide focus on 1 mag nxt time... trouble brewing man....

Good to hear that you like TG. I think its a great all rounded mag. It used to be quite brit pop heavy years ago, but I've lost touch now.
Beware, these mags will create a hole in the wallet. And those gear reviews will create sleepless nights thinking about them :wink: I try to be selective when I buy them i.e. only get them when featuring my fav player or have my favourite songs. (I like Gilbert, Vai and Satch )
Can't wait to get this month's GT and learn Paul Gilbert's Scarified or something like that.
Cheers
