Guitar Aficionado

I just discovered a new guitar magazine at the book store (it¡¯s on the premier issue), Guitar Aficionado. Guitar Aficionado isn¡¯t a typical guitar magazine like Guitar World. This magazine is more a lifestyle magazine who¡¯s main hook is guitars and their collectors.In additional to articles on a collectors and their guitars you¡¯ll see articles about high end watches, fashion and automobiles. You won¡¯t find much in the way of music theory or tabs like you¡¯ll see in other guitar magazines, at least in the premier issue. And that is fine with me. I love guitars, so getting a look into the collections of others is welcome¡­ although it does make me envious.

Don¡¯t expect gear reviews, musician interviews, and pages and pages of tabs. This magazine seems to be for the guitar collector. It may not be for some, but if you¡¯re into vintage guitars I think it could be an interesting magazine.

   Hmmm. I will have to check that out. I used to be more of a gear head, but I got sick of all the mainstream mags. Some guitar porn with other GQ stuff thrown in (I.e. Watches) could be very cool indeed
