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.
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.
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.
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 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.
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.
Well, there’s a title I never thought I’d type. Who sends a guitar pedal into space? Chaos Audio does. That’s who. They’re the first company to send a guitar pedal into space and they did it with their Stratus guitar pedal.
It’s a seriously cool and impressive video to watch.
Any time I think about getting a new guitar, I go looking for something that brings something different to the existing collection. The Wes Borland 4-string bass/guitar hybrid that Paul Reed Smith (PRS) Guitars has created ticks more of those something new boxes than most guitars on the market currently.
I should start this list with a few disclaimers. Firstly, where I’m from, favourite has a U in it. Sorry online grammar checker! Secondly, these are purely my personal 10 favourite albums of 2021. This isn’t supposed to be interpreted as some kind of best-of list. I don’t believe I have the qualifications to attempt to rank something like musical ability or quality. Music is interpretive. That’s one of the reasons it’s so awesome.
There were a lot of things I craved in 2021. One was an end to the pandemic that will most likely never end. Another was an end to the incredibly stressful working year I endured. Neither of those things looks like they’ll get better any time soon. However, Gibson did release the Dave Mustaine Flying V EXP and it was all I hoped for.
Well, almost. I hoped to get one, but it seems that is what 2022 may be for.
