Guitar & Bass Magazine June 2013
In the Issue:
The triumphs and tragedies of Free’s legendary guitar player Paul Kossoff. Elsewhere, we put a fine-looking Duesenberg through its paces to see if its sonic abilities match its aesthetics, drink from the fountains of knowledge that we all know as Joe Satriani and Steve Earle, and investigate how the Kinks can improve your guitar playing for ever. Also brimming with guitar-fuelled goodness are this month’s Vintage and Workshop sections. In fact, I’m going to quit now while I’ve even a small chance of remaining remotely ahead, before you quite rightly stop reading this and get on to the stuff you’ve paid your money for. Hope you enjoy the issue….
Features
Wethinks Joe Satriani, Steve Earle, Dave Kelly and Alan Nimmo would make wonderfully erudite dinner companions, and you catch all their wit and wisdom within the pages of this month’s issue….
Workshops
Huw Price looks at the often-thorny subject of a guitar’s action and talks you through exactly what you need to do in order to get your fret-fingers flying. And there’s plenty to be learned from the Kinks and Joy Division that will improve your own playing and impress your friends!.
Vintage
Phil Harris explains how 1963 really was a unique’n’pivotal year in the history of vintage gear – and the music it generated. Sid Bishop discusses Denmark Street’s shady reputation – and how he dealt with the spivs and the outright crooks back in the day. This month’s Private Collection shows a lot of love for Gretsches, Rickenbackers and Fenders…
Reviews
With a selection of top-notch Fenders, Duesenbergs and the like being put through their paces we’ve gone right classy this issue. And if you want wacky but extremely worthy, we tested an electric cigar box guitar to see if could cut the Colman’s. Did it? Read the issue to find out…
