Where do you guys buy GuitarWorld? Used to get it regularly from SweeLee Plaza Singapura back in the day.

 

[metalella_eh]

where did you get that issue of guitar world? i'm looking for this issue's of guitar world. thanks for sharing.

 

[nitrobro]

its at heaps of places today i got from "mama joe" magazine store in holland village

 

[panz3rr]

avenged sevenfold..ew

 

[Crawldaddy]

Hmm.

^^ that's a good place, another place would be the mag storw at the original Ikea building near Queenstown MRT.

But if all else fails Kinokuniya at Takashimaya or Times at Suntec shouldn't disappoint Guitar World readers.

However, I do find myself somewhat bored with their current choice of bands being chosen for interviews, and songs that are chosen to be transcribed.

I've been particularly picky about their monthly issues and i tend to steer clear of them unless they feature any band from before 1985.

But that's the classic rock person in me talking.

Borders sells Guitar World if i'm not wrong. They have alot of mags on guitar. So many to chose, Too little time to browse
