Hello, fellow string strummers and riff enthusiasts! Today at Guitar Fascination, I’m thrilled to share something that not only strikes a chord in my heart, but might make you smile when you discover my plans for the Donner DLP-124B. You will need to watch the video to see what I’m talking about there.
If you’re new to playing guitar, then you may not realise the importance of finding the right plectrum. Even if you’ve been playing guitar for a long time, there are always new innovations coming out in the guitar accessories realm. For example, Amazon has over 9000 listings for guitar accessories! It’s so easy to get lost in all of the choices. This post shows five awesome options for finding the right plectrum.
Changing guitar strings doesn’t need to be overly complicated, even if your guitar uses a Floyd Rose tremolo. All you need are the right tools and a plan of attack. Maybe attack is the wrong word … now it sounds complicated again.
Stay with me. I’ll show you the tools I use when changing guitar strings on my electric guitars in the order I use them.
Recently, I wrote about five affordable distortion pedals that I owned that could all be purchased for under $50 USD each. After I published that post, I started to wonder. Are there even more affordable pedals out there? It turns out that there are. Here are five that I discovered.
Today, I wanted to dive into a truly electrifying—did you see what I did there?—moment in heavy metal history. It’s been 40 years since Metallica’s legendary album ‘Ride The Lightning’ stormed into our lives, and what a ride it has been!
The puns just write themselves!
Hello, fellow guitar fans and heavy metal enthusiasts! I recently had an incredible opportunity that I am thrilled to share with all of you here at Guitar Fascination. Yes, it involves some serious guitar candy—a sneak peek into the world of custom guitar crafting at Prestige Guitars in Vancouver, Canada. Plus, I have some exciting news about my new custom guitar build!

It’s been a long time since I added a guitar play through video to my guitar play through article series. I’ve still been watching them and loving them, I just haven’t posted about them. Sadly, recent events have reminded me of one of my favourite guitar play through videos—Above my Head by Polaris.

Ever since I discovered Michael Angelo Batio had signature guitars at Sawtooth Guitars, I became interested in the brand. From everything I can see, these look to be very affordable, quality guitars. When I discovered that Sawtooth Guitars are now available in Australia, I had to investigate further. Here are five Sawtooth Guitars models that have already caught my eye.

Recently I came across the very affordable Donner LP-124B on sale. Through a combination of the seller having an online sale, and the website I purchase through providing additional savings for being a valued customer, I could buy this guitar for under $120 (Australian dollars) including delivery. I couldn’t resist. Let’s see if it was worth it.

My fascination with guitars goes beyond guitars themselves. My fascination also includes amplifiers, interfaces, software, and guitar pedals. Some say I may have too many guitar pedals. Those people would of course be wrong. One of the reasons I have the number of guitar pedals I do is because it’s so easy to find guitar pedals under $50 USD.
Heck. It even gives me something to write about on this website! Convenient.

If you are a heavy metal guitar fan and also frequent YouTube, chances are high that you are aware of the SWOLA riff challenge that Ola Englund started with the second entry in his long-running Sunday With Ola (SWOLA) series. If you’re not aware, I recommend checking the SWOLA videos out.
This year, for my ongoing guitar fascination, I thought I’d try something different. Rather than buying another guitar, I thought I’d try to build one. Now, when I say build, I mean to attempt a guitar kit build—which is one step up from using a virtual guitar builder to design and buy a guitar.
Welcome to the fourth and final entry in this four-part series cleverly titled Getting to know the author. This is perhaps the least appropriate time in the series to point out that I’m quite introverted. Oops.
As we find our way three-quarters of the way through this four-part series of Getting to know the author, I’d like to remind folks that I haven’t perfected the art of capturing my guitar playing perfectly onto video. I haven’t mastered audio either.
I know I mentioned my lack of recording ability in the first part of this Getting to know the author series. Well, part 2 of this series is proof of that. I am working on improving this though.
