Exploring the world of country guitar is a diverse and exciting journey, one from which a guitarist of any background can benefit, while having fun. Modern country guitar is an amalgam of traditional and not-so-traditional playing approaches borrowed from several related homegrown American styles. As such, it includes elements of blues, bluegrass, rock and roll, and even jazz, and it offers a tasty mix of expressive and challenging playing techniques. The key musical building blocks that form country guitar’s foundational vocabulary are the major and minor pentatonic scales, the major scale and the Mixolydian mode, major and minor chords and their corresponding arpeggios, dominant sevenths and ninths, and the judicious use of chromatic passing tones. Mainstay country guitar-playing techniques include flatpicking, fingerpicking and hybrid picking (pick-and-fingers technique); the exploitation of open strings and licks played in the “open position,” which have a characteristic “twangy” tone; and lots of string bends and finger slides. The go-to ax for most country pickers is a solidbody electric guitar, particularly a Telecaster-style design, equipped with single-coil pickups and fairly light-gauge strings (.009s or .010s). More-traditional country guitarists, such as the legendary Chet Atkins, came of age playing a semi-hollowbody guitar equipped with humbuckers, and...
For the last few years, as I walk around the show floor of the NAMM show, I like to document the most stunning looking guitars I happen to find. I'm more about the design than the functionality. While GearGods likes to cover the more technical aspects of the convention (head on over for 300 videos featuring product demos, announcements and performances), I prefer to keep things light and just focus on the aesthetic. So here are my favorite guitars that I saw. View more of our photos from NAMM here. For more NAMM coverage, visit our sister site Gear Gods. Here are some highlights from their coverage: PRS Guitars introduces their first ever multiscale model: Tony Levin talked about a Liquid Tension Experiment reunion: This magnetic pedalboard looks so awesome: Strandberg Guitars has an exciting new model coming out: A country/jazz/blues guy RIPPING on Tosin Abasi’s guitar: For more like this, check out all of Gear Gods’ exclusive 2018 NAMM Show coverage!...
BY ADAM PERLMUTTER On a Wednesday evening a couple of years ago, Julian Lage sat onstage at the Hotel Cafe, a venue in Hollywood, with a 1939 Martin 000-18 on his lap. Lage was performing compositions from his solo guitar album World’s Fair, and it was exciting to witness this young virtuoso—with his expansive musical vocabulary and fecund imagination, his contrapuntal feats and his faultless technique—achieving an extreme range of expression from a modest old guitar. The audience, a hip-looking bunch, appeared riveted. After the show, Lage emerged in the venue’s lobby while a throng of well-wishers waited for their opportunity to interact with him—the sort of reception more commonly given to rock stars than jazz musicians. But it wasn’t exactly surprising, considering Lage’s ascendance as the thinking-person’s guitar hero. Lage was in the Bay Area last December to teach at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music, where he is on faculty, and I met him one morning for breakfast at a restaurant near the school. Tall and wiry, he was dressed smartly in a dark Patagonia sweater, olive-green chinos, and white retro Adidas sneakers. In person, he is disarmingly warm and pleasant and comes across as a total mensch. Lage...

In his snow pants, turtleneck sweater, and cool leather jacket, South Korea’s Yang Tae-hwan stole the show at the Winter Olympics closing ceremony in PyeongChang thanks to a shredding guitar solo that put a stamp on the last two weeks of competition. Thankfully, he melted faces at the Winter Olympics, and those in the proximity of the nuclear energy emitting from his fingertips will make it home safely. ok, for whatever reason the clip of the ceremony won’t play, but I just watched that clip at the bottom, and honestly, as a guitar player who does sometimes listen to some of the ‘shredding’ greats like yngwie, this kids playing in that video was absolute rubbish. “Ok, I get that literally everybody else was impressed by this 13 year old, but that makes me uncomfortable. I, too, play guitar, and nobody ever praises me the way everyone us praising this child. I now feel the need to post negative comments deriding the ability of a small person who appears to not be past puberty, because they’re already better than me.” -you someone’s upset they didn’t get a call back to play the closing ceremonies at the olympics.

In an alternate reality with less fake news, James McMurtry might have been a pundit - imagine the musician and son of a Pulizter winner with a Washington Post column or talking-head gig on CNN. But within the realm of Americana music, and pop in general, he's one of those rare singer-songwriters whose words frequently draw blood. The Austin-based McMurtry put out his latest single, "State of the Union," as a free download on Jan. 2. Just his moderately strummed acoustic guitar and a dollop of Warren Hood's fiddle, the arrangement doesn't need much dressing up. Not with lines like these: My brother's a fascist, lives in Palacios, fishes the pier every night He holsters his Glock in a double retention, he smokes while he waits for a bite Where: Continental Club, 3700 Main Details: $20; continentalclub.com/houston He don't like the Muslims, he don't like the Jews He don't like the Blacks, and he don't trust the news He hates the Hispanics and alternate views He'll tell you it's tough to be white "If we could teach our kids proper Spanish pronunciation, that song would have never happened," McMurtry says during a phone call.

Jimmy Page has been talking for several years about a new musical project, which has been delayed by his focus on reworking Led Zeppelin’s catalog and making plans to celebrate the band’s 50th anniversary. However, He took a moment in a new interview with Rolling Stone to respond to suggestions that his solo concept was based around acoustic guitar. “I intend to be doing something which obviously will surface as a sort of album somewhere,” he said. “It'll surface further on down the line; I'm looking forward to doing whatever the project is. But if you think about all the areas that I've attempted, guitar, whether it's acoustic or electric or whatever, all the different approaches that I've done, it's just gonna be an extension of all of that, and that's it.” He emphasized: “So it's not just acoustic, it's not just electric, it's everything I can muster up.” In a recent interview with Planet Rock magazine (via Billboard), Page accepted that it was almost impossible that Led Zeppelin might reunite once again. “You've just got to face facts. We've gone past the tenth anniversary of the O2 [reunion show], where we managed to do one serious concert,” he commented....

Henry Juszkiewicz, CEO and majority shareholder in the firm that makes Gibson guitars, has outlined what he thinks is wrong with music stores in the modern world. Gibson Brands, Inc. was recently reported to be facing bankruptcy within the next four months under a large debt burden and amid sluggish sales, especially in its electronics division. In an interview with Billboard, Juszkiewicz argued that the music retail industry as a whole had suffered severe damage during the 2008 financial meltdown, and had failed to recover to the levels enjoyed beforehand. And he insisted that stores had to take their share of the blame. “There are problems with the guitar retail industry," he said. "All of the retailers are fearful as can be; they're all afraid of e-commerce, with Amazon just becoming the second largest employer in the U.S., and the brick and mortar guys are just panicking. They see the trend, and that trend isn't taking them to a good place, and they're all wondering if there will be a world for brick and mortar stores for much longer. It’s a turbulent world to be a retailer, and many of our retail partners are facing that same issue.” He said Gibson...Do you have all the guitar scales under your fingers?
