The past few years have seen the rise of several new ways to get your music promoted and selling, leveraging the strengths of the Internet.
Welcome to the October edition of Guitar Nine's on-line magazine. Guitar Nine once again celebrates Instrumental Guitar Month this October, a great time to remember, support, discover, promote, and celebrate the many practitioners of this near-underground musical sub-genre. A reminder: many of our best sellers are in their final CD pressings, as 3-4 CDs join the out-of-print list each week. We've got very limited stock on some of these soon-to-be collectors items. Check our price list for current availability. Also, be sure to check out our new Twitter feed for even more news and information.
