Location: Carle Place, NY | I've been subscribing to this magazine for about 8 months. The magazine is from the UK. It's well worth the price. Every month has a bunch of transcriptions and a CD with the whole songs/exercises followed by backing tracks for you to play along with. Very high quality tracks. It would make a good holiday gift.

The current issue, Jan. '06, has transcriptions of Steely Dan's Reelin' in the Years, the Shadows' Guitar Tango, and Nickel Back's This is How You Remind Me. There's also some Celtic style acoustic, jazz improv and string bending instruction.
The larger Barnes & Noble stores here in New York carry the magazine, but you save a lot (sorry Al) by subscribing. |

I agree tho....it is a GREAT magazine and the CD is really nice when working on the songs and exercises. |
