    Read excerpt

    Fresh from his performance at Eric Clapton’s Crossroads Guitar Festival, John Mayer has just announced his return to the Sphere in Las Vegas next year for a run of shows featuring three distinct sets. Set to take place in April 2027, the event will see Mayer perform solo, with a full band, and with the John Mayer Trio, showcasing the guitarist and singer-songwriter’s stylistic palette across each set. His solo performance will feature acoustic guitar and, at times, piano and electric guitar, whi

    “The original concept was to have a six-neck that spun like a roulette wheel”: Rick Nielsen’s guitars are going up for auction – including his bonkers five-neck Hamer (opens the original)

    Read excerpt

    Rock & Roll Hall of Famer and Cheap Trick guitar legend Rick Nielsen is auctioning off some of his most recognizable and off-kilter guitars, of course. The eccentric guitarist’s collection includes two 1968 Gibson Explorers, and a 1963 Guild Merle Travis, one of only three ever made. One of his three custom five-neck guitars will also be up for grabs, the stage-played 2004 Hamer “Five Neck” Korina, estimated to sell for more than $175,000. “How did I come up with such a backbreaking idea for an

    “I don’t think a film can define her legacy – she did that through her playing. But it can help more people hear it”: Jazz virtuoso Emily Remler has gone unnoticed for far too long – now, one filmmaker is bringing her story to light (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Back in 1982, a fast-rising – and perhaps unassuming – jazz virtuoso by the name of Emily Remler told People Magazine, “I may look like a nice Jewish girl from New Jersey, but inside I'm a 50-year-old, heavy-set black man with a big thumb, like Wes Montgomery.” She may not be a household name, but Remler had the technique to hold her own alongside contemporaries like Pat Metheny, John Scofield, Joe Pass and Jennifer Batten. She also had something rarer: a sound and a musical personality that wer

    Olivia Rodrigo showcases heart-shaped guitar and custom Fender builds on her Unraveled Tour: “Five prototypes before I got the body right. It had to look cool, play easy, feel comfortable, and most of all, sound good” (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    While she’s a self-professed “novice” guitarist, Olivia Rodrigo has become a massive proponent of the instrument since her debut album, 2021’s SOUR, brought her alt-pop-rock musings to the mainstream. Now, as she kicks off The Unraveled Tour in support of her third album, You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love, her penchant for unique and highly customized guitars is on full display. Her aresenal includes a relic’d single-pickup Jazzmaster custom that she uses on the track Maggots for Brains,

    “We were sitting backstage in the Voodoo Lounge, and Mick and I started talking. He said, casually, I'll gladly do some tracks for you”: How Mick Jagger very nearly ended up on a Joe Satriani record – before Satch deleted his performance (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    In the ’90s, Joe Satriani had already spent roughly a decade as one of the buzziest virtuosos in the guitar world, and with that privilege comes a long list of esteemed artists vying to collaborate. And on his sixth studio album, simply titled Joe Satriani and released in 1995, Satch very nearly ended up with Mick Jagger on his record. He told the tale to Guitar World in 1996: “While I was doing some early sessions for the record with Jeff Campitelli [Satriani’s longtime drummer] and John Cunibe
