Generally these days guitar gear is of a pretty high standard, irrespective of price point. A 250 quid Squier is usually a really good guitar, especially compared to what was available for the same money 25 years ago! I remember plastic tuners on cheap Squiers when I was first learning.
If a company sends gear in for review, I assume it's really nicely set up and working absolutely perfectly.
Guitarist has a lot of advertising in it. They probably don't want to piss off the companies who advertise in it too much!
Been uploading old tracks I recorded ages ago and hopefully some new noodles here.
Scathing stuff.
I subscribe to Guitarist, but, really, it has been poor for years. The relentless focus on a tiny blues (and not even all of that, tbh), and blues rock style, and the endless stuff with guitarists who are my fucking Dad’s age and older, is tedious. Guitar magazine isn’t perfect, but it does at least cover younger — as in younger than 50! — players.
In general as guitarists largely dislike any form of innovation in guitars are their actually any bad guitars these days just ones you dont like due to personal taste.
I do think regardless of advertising revenue a good editor will still simply retain the right not to publish if they are sent something that was a complete mess.
Ultimately you were find better information around the internet these days if you avoid the paid for or influencer lead stuff.
