Same here. Though, I now have a subscription to Guitar Player, I'm about to let it run out and go with Guitar World again. I used to really love Guitar Shop which was mostly about gear, had a subscription for it, but they only lasted a couple of years and disappeared.

Guitar World..but they all dropped the ball and promoted pure shit during the 90's..

It's bad when I can smoke the fag on the cover!!

at least things are back on track these days..since metal/shred is cool again..

I still haven't seen Jeff Loomis on the cover so somebodys' still sleeping..

[Seventh Avenged]

yeah Guitar World always seems to be about the popular artists of the time.

Its like People Magazine of guitar.

I like Guitar Player a lot, its pretty diverse, and i dunno, its clean looking and its just a great periodical; lot of good information.

guitar one is, eh.

imo. of course/

They basically always suck dick. All I read about is like people, stupid bands, and gay ass gear reviews. Over half of a god damned magazine is advertisements, I mean god dammit, I don't need to see 10,000 gear ads for shit I don't want to buy.

That said, I've liked Guitar world the most for awhile, but I get GW, G1, GP.

[Guitarnut]

It's difficult to get the US mags over here, although I'll pick up GW if it turns up at the local shop - the CDs are always missing though - so I'll have to go with Guitar Techniques. Loads of useful stuff in there (mostly tuition in different styles & techniques, not many articles - if any). Guitarist is the better read (more articles, less tuition), but my legs go numb if I read it on the toilet for too long.

I voted for Guitar Player, because at least the articles are long enough that I can't read it cover-to-cover in one crap, like GW. I haven't subscribed to any of them since the glory days of GFTPM, and I'll only pick one up once in a while if it looks interesting.

[pagemalicious]

I voted Guitar Techniques. Very good magazine for learning new an important things and they really go into depth about it. Guitarist is good for gear but a bit crappy for learning things

[jjw]

dont buy them

[neilli]

+1 I gave up buying them a couple of years back, cos I'd been reading interviews with the same content for over 15 years (only the names / faces changed) and got fed up with reading PRS reviews from middle aged men....Also, I have the internet now, so I can read about my specific areas of interest for nothing!
