New Year, New Columns, New Interviews
Welcome to the February edition of Guitar Nine's on-line magazine. 2012 was a transitional year, as the site started out with an e-commerce legacy, and ended the year converting back to an e-zine - which is how the site began in 1996. Altogether, six columnists have submitted articles in their areas of specialty that will interest guitar players and independent musicians alike. To date, over 185 musicians have written guest columns since 1997.
