Where Instrumental Music Takes You
Guitar Nine Serving The Demand For Niche Music

Welcome to the August edition of Guitar Nine's on-line magazine. Managing expectations for a lower demand by consumers for physical product, Guitar Nine both continues to add new titles, while selling out of some of our most popular selling albums from the past ten years. It's a new reality, but take this time to acquire the last of some very fine music for the very last time.

If you have gathered some musical experience by actively making music, you listen to music in another way. You are able to hear everything and not only the lead instrument or vocals.

I personally love to hear melody and hooks in solos as well as lyrically slow/wide vibrato and story-telling phrasing capped off with shredding licks that make you want to fall to pieces.
