I'd have to say Guitar Player too. I had a suscription for about 15 years and perfered the old style of longer articles that the current editions don't have. Still they do a good job.
Guitar World is good too and they have more popular music transcriptions. Still G.P. is the best quality.

I'm not familiar with GP. I had a subscription for a year to GuitarWorld. Besides having delivery problems (which I think have since been fixed) the content seemed to be a bit lacking. For the past year I've been subscribing to GuitarOne which is tons better, IMHO, especially with the CD.

Amphen: Jet City JCA22H and JCA12S cab, Carvin X-60 combo, Acoustic B20

Definitely Guitar Player.
They cover ALL styles of music in just about every issue, one way or another. There's quite a few lessons, tons of gear reviews, etc etc
The new format is growing on me.

GP is okay, but some of the authors have a writing style I am not a big fan of. The Molenda guy... I flip the page as fast as I can when I see anything written by him. But GW is no better.

I agree....Molenda tries WAAAYY too hard to be "hip"....or something. He loves to point out that he was into punk music & played in punk bands, etc etc

Guitar Player it is then. The drawback is I will get hit badly by GAS once a month when the new mag dumps down in my mail box. All these new shiny amps and geetars and stomping boxes - oh my! My signature is probaly long enough as it is. Oh well, why fight an addiction that isn't causing bodily harm (not to me anyway)?

Robert, once I actually get a new scanner I can send you Fuzz scans. That magazine (sorry guys, Swedish only) is the best guitar mag ever.
I can't say that I've given up on a flanger cause I've never liked the effect either. I also can't say the same about Tremolo. I hate them both equally. - Tone2TheBone 2009

Swede, that is too kind of you and not really necessary. It sounds like a lot of work.
