Guitar One is often metal, but the last one I picked up - September - was "The Rocker's Guide to playing Blazing Country". Yeah, it had a Zeppelin transcription and a Motley Crue one... but it also had Wayne Shorter.

Guitar World is also geared towards rock as a rule. The last one I grabbed of that (also September) has U2, Zep, Soundgarden, the Doors...

Guitar Player has the best lessons of the three, and the most eclectic approach. It's the only one I buy every month. The current issue has Yngwie Malmsteen on the cover, with lessons by Ray Flacke (country), Larry Carlton, Steve Morse (a regular columnist), and a short analysis of Charlie Christian's style. Over the course of a year, you'll find lessons on bluegrass, 7-string, bebop, punk... they do the best all-around job.]]> Guitar Players Discussion NoteBoat https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/which-guitar-magazine/#post-131637 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/which-guitar-magazine/#post-131631 Mon, 10 Oct 2005 17:22:30 +0000

Guitar One
2. Guitar Player
3. Guitar World

Does anyone get one of these mags on a regular basis, if so what are your impressions, and does any of the above mags slant more to the classic rock genre. Would like a mag with some lessons, tabs etc. for the beginner to intermediate type player.
Thanx for any help
Robbie I get Guitar One every month. They cover a wide variety of subjects, have lessons in different genres, and Generally have several good song tabs. IF you spend a little extra you can get a CD with the subscription, of all the lessons and usually one or two of the tabs with the band minus the guitar part.

I generally grab a Guitar World that interests me off the news stand, but feel that it's more geared to advanced players, and gear reviews. (Yes I know they are owned by the same publisher.)]]> Guitar Players Discussion TwistedFingers https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/which-guitar-magazine/#post-131534
