Australian Guitar #170 is on sale now, featuring Paul McCartney, Anthrax, Greta Can Fleet, Tommy Emmanuel and more
Also: A 12 page technique guide on Van Halen's influences
As summer advances, the great outdoors heats up. But much the same is happening in some indoor environments, namely newsagents, because the latest issue of Australian Guitar has just hit newsstands.
Sorry about that. Leading the charge in #170 is the iconic bass-lovin' Beatle himself, Paul McCartney. He may have spent more time on the bass, but in this issue's 17 page feature we'll be studying his output as a damn fine guitarist, and also speaking with his very many six string collaborators.
Interviews are abundant this issue: Anthrax, Greta Van Fleet's Jake Kiszka, Tommy Emmanuel on Chet Atkins, and Pearson Instruments all drop by for a yarn. We also survey Van Halen's biggest influences in our 12 page technique feature, and chat to Neurosis about what it was like to work with the late Steve Albini.
We've also got heaps of reviews for new gear from Jackson, Gibson, Cort, Martin, Orange, Fender, Earthquaker, and JBL, and a deep dive on that gorgeous Gretsch that George Michael wields in the Faith video.
Australian Guitar #170 is available now at newsagents all around the country, and online via TechMags or iSubscribe.
