What You Need To Know
1 What’s going on? Has Guitarist gone shred? Like many, we’ve been relistening to plenty of the ridiculous skills of Eddie Van Halen these past weeks, but you don’t need us to tell you how the world of shred and all its sub-cultures is a fine place to discover some seriously incendiary guitar chops.
2 You mean, like Henrik Danhage? That’s about the size of it. Henrik is a key member of Swedish progressive metal band Evergrey. He’s a very amiable chap and clearly has fine taste in guitars judging by his beat-up signature.
3 It looks like just like the sort of thing Eddie played before he went proper… Exactly. This signature looks like Eddie screwed it together for Henrik back in the day. But Eddie moved on via tie-ups with Kramer, Music Man, and Peavey then finally with Fender where the EVH brand formed in 2007. The limited-edition model shows off a very considered, player-centric design.

BASIC INSTINCTS
The sophisticated range of Swedish-designed guitars made by .strandberg* has lured thousands of players over to the headless side. But the company's new stripped-back Boden Essential model is its strongest play yet for the hearts and minds of mainstream players
Second String
As PRS's more affordable USA-made S2 line moves into its second decade, the series gets a revamp with - at last - USA-made pickups and electronics. What took so long?
PABLO VAN DE POEL
When a band from The Netherlands describes themselves as 'raw, psychedelic Southern rock', it may take a little cognitive processing to work out what that might mean. One listen to DeWolff, however, and you will be duly transported to the 60s for some fuzzed-out rock 'n' roll
THE BERNIE MARSDEN COLLECTION
With a fabulous collection of the late Bernie Marsden's guitars, amps and other highly collectable music gear going under the auctioneer's hammer on 11 June, we were thrilled to have the chance of a sneak preview
LENNY KRAVITZ
Some 35 years since the release of his debut LP, for his 12th record, Blue Electric Light, Lenny Kravitz is back again with equal doses of vigour and vibes, using vintage guitars and the purest valve amps
GEORGE VJESTICA
You may not know him at first glance, but the work of Stoke-on-Trent native George Vjestica has probably impacted some of your favourite albums and movies
DICKEY BETTS
Emerging from the shadow of Duane to write signature hit Ramblin' Man, the Allman Brothers guitarist was a hard-living pioneer of Southern rock
NICK GUPPY
It is with great sadness that we report the passing of our highly valued amplifier guru, who died suddenly in April
Lucky Break
Alex Bishop blends old wood with new in an attempt to fix a severely damaged guitar headstock
Tones Behind The Tracks
Cedric Burnside learnt at the knee of his fabled grandfather, but his latest album is a hill country blues masterclass on his own terms
