The range of available guitars and amps has never been greater than it is today, and a huge variety of sounds are easily accessible.

E-Guitars

Electric guitars are ten a penny and nowadays there are at least as many models and makers to choose from.

Guitar Amps

The following pages give an overview of the various types of guitar amp available.

Acoustic Guitars

The steel-strung acoustic guitar has a range of sounds that are unmistakeable and not easily replicated with any other type of guitar.

Amp modeling

Amp modellers are guitar DSP effects units that emulate the sound of a range of amplifiers and speaker cabinets.

Bass Guitars

Here is a overview of the bass and all its component parts, from vintage to modern instruments.

Guitar Accessories

We investigate some of the many accessories available for both guitar and bass.

Modulation Effects Pedals

The term ‘modulation’ in its broadest sense covers a range of sonic effects, from the subtlest chorus to ear-bending ring modulation.

Guitar Strings

Without strings, guitars and basses produce no sound, yet most players know very little about them.

Recording E-Guitars

Our aim is to explain the basic process of recording the electric guitar!

Classical Guitars

Until recently, the classical guitar represented the most popular route into guitar playing.

Guitar Multi FX

The multi-FX concept has been around in various forms since the mid 80s - It is therefore no surprise that there is a huge range of hardware available.

Guitar Amp Heads

Though there are other options, the stack remains a rock icon, and is still the most flexible form of guitar amplification.

Bass Effect Pedals

Effects processors designed for use with bass guitars are now more popular than ever.

Acoustic Guitar Amps

Before buying an acoustic amp, it’s important to consider exactly what you want it to do.

Distortion Effect Pedals

A classic Ibanez Tubescreamer or Colorsound Tonebender can fetch many times its original price from guitarists in search of the ultimate killer tone and sustain.

Guitar Wireless Systems

It’s time for more guitarists to take advantage of the freedom of movement provided and strut their stuff!

Ukulele

Often underestimated and thought of only as a holiday instrument, the ukulele is experiencing a revival - and by no means only on Hawaii

Choosing a Beginner's Instr.

The first hurdle though, is to decide on which instrument to learn?

Pickups

There is nothing mysterious about the basic principles of the electric guitar pickup.

Mic Preamps

Microphone preamps, are analogue devices that will remain important even as most other equipment is superseded by digital alternatives.

Delay Effect Pedals

Delays offer a simple and convenient method of creating a sense of space around your sound.

Reverb Effects

Reverb is an essential ingredient in almost all pop and rock music.

Tuners

Modern electronic tuners are generally accurate, reliable and fairly inexpensive.

Racks & Cases

If you take good care of your equipment, your pack it up carefully - and this means getting a proper case!

7 String Guitars

In this Online Advisor, created in conjunction with planetguitar.net, we explore the key features of the instruments that have redefined power chords.

Wah Pedals

It would be fair to say that the development of the wah-wah pedal has been somewhat experimental over the years.

MIDI and Modelling Guitars

We delve into the digital technology bridging the gap between guitars and synths in several exciting areas.

Bass Pickups

E-bass pickups influence the sound of your bass decisively.

Potentiometers

Guitar players in particular should know something about potentiometers

Recording Acoustic Guitars

The acoustic guitar is one of the most frequently recorded instruments in the studio, but it is often recorded poorly.

Equalisers

EQ is perhaps the least noticed of all types of audio processing, but also the most important.
