Guitar Player
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Guitar Player is a popular magazine for guitarists. It contains articles, interviews, reviews and lessons of an eclectic collection of artists, genres and products. It has been in print since the late 1960s and is currently edited by Michael Molenda. Guitar Player is a part of the Music Player Network.

A typical issue of Guitar Player includes in-depth artist features, extensive lessons, gear and music reviews, letters to the magazine, and various front-of-book articles. Readers have often expressed their appreciation of Guitar Player's policy of featuring many styles of guitarists, as opposed to other magazines, typically dominated by rock music. It has been published since 1967, and so will celebrate its 40th anniversary in 2007 — an event that will be reflected in the contents of that year’s issues.
In May of 2006 the Music Player Network partnered with TrueFire TV to launch an internet-based television station for guitarists. It provides content similar to that of the magazine such as interviews and lessons. Guitar Player TV is provided at no cost to the user due to advertising and sponsorship.[1]
- In the score screen that appears after each song in Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock, instead of a newspaper headline, now the score appears in magazines - some of them fictional, others real. Guitar Player, along with Kerrang!, Paste, Decibel Magazine and Alternative Press, is among these real-life magazines.
