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."
This edition's guest columnists offer composition ideas, practice tips and music career advice directly to your web browser. We've got nine fresh columns altogether - seven written by by returning columnists along with two new contributors.
Tom Hess returns with "How To Make Your Music Career Highly Profitable And Stable". Mike Campese serves up a new technique column entitled "Up 4 Back 1". Joe Pinnavaia is back with his article "Competitive Composition". Guitarist Jamie Andreas returns with a comprehensive article "All About Scales On Guitar". Guitarist Mike Philippov returns after a long break with "The Best Way To Learn Difficult Chord Changes". Tommaso Zillio offers practical technique ideas in "Solving the Mystery of Guitar Harmonics". Tim Sweeney is back to inspire with "Time To Wake Up, Music Artists". New columnists in this issue include Neal Wakefield with "Why Don't You Achieve Success You Want?" and Rob James with "Top 10 Weirdest Legend Guitarists Backstage Warm Ups".
