Introduction

The August-September edition is now online!

The August-September edition is now online, and we're taking time to give special thanks to all of our fans, visitors and customers all over the world who have supported us so enthusiastically over the past 15 years - you all have our deepest appreciation!

August Features

Note from Guitar Nine's Dan McAvinchey, "I've been meeting people and forming relationships for over 40 years. Networking tools such as LinkedIn have only been around for a fraction of that time. If we know each other, or we've had a relationship going for a long time as a musician, customer or fan of the site (or should have a new one), let's establish a connection, and a build a bridge to the future."
