Jan 2007 Guitar World Petrucci interview

[eliot323]

Hi there
A UK forumite writes - Does anyone have the ability to scan the tab for JP's lesson in the Jan 2007 edition of Guitar World magazine that they could email/PM me?

I'm especially interested in the arpeggio exercise which looks great!

I know this may not be strictly correct from a copyrighting perspective but it is not an easy magazine to get in the UK.

i didnt know the mag was hard to get in the UK, its freely available here in Oz. I"ll try and scan it for you.

Hi Robelinda
Thanks - that would be greatly appreciated!

[Rossie]

Could you please send a copy to my email too?

I would certainly buy one if I can actually find one...

[robelinda2]

i'm trying to get my scanner working, will update later. not looking good though. havent used it in a few months, and its having some issues.

its freely available here in Oz.

Are You Kidding?

[robelinda2]

yeah Guitar World and all the USA and UK mags are always available here in Australia, every newsagent ive been too has them all, ive never had any trouble getting them since about 1994. i subscribe to GW and Guitar One to get the cd-rom.

[Tim O'Sullivan]

I really must subscribe to GW, I prefer it to the UK mags.

[Spudmurphy]

I'm sure if you ask your newsagent he'll check out his supplier and probably get you a copy each month.
My newsagent has retired and gone now - he would always check out the availability of mags for me.

But you often miss the CD's which is half the fun!

[robelinda2]

yeah ive been getting GW for like 14 years, but when they started the cd-roms i was so happy, but it was just as a trial, then you have to subcribe to get the cd-rom. though they do chuck it in once or twice a year sometimes, but i got sick of not getting it regularly so i subscribed. I still think its a very average mag, i think out of Guitar One and Guitar World the latter is the angry young guitarist mag. Guitar One has LOADS of varied stuff to learn, and not much emo teenage crap. i look through GW and i dont know any of the bands, they are very metal it seems.

+1 on angry young guitarist comment.

Got sick of GW years ago, with too many d*cks on the cover chucking stupid heads as if to say "Growwwl.......... look at me, I'm in a thrash band and I am a very scary, evil monster"

And they'd be lucky to weigh 50kg dripping wet !

Then you'd get Dave Mustaine trying to be the Grandad of all very scary, evil monsters..........

[Rossie]

Till now, I think Guitar Techniques is still the best guitar magazine for lessons.

[robelinda2]

Rossie you are 100% right, for lessons and complete style instruction, GT is THE BEST!

I love collecting lessons from the various mags. But man I'm years behind in learning them ... between the the Steve Morse tabs/lessons and the Petrucci Rock Discpline vid I've got more than a lifetime of practice ahead of me ...
