Do they still run the free Classifieds in the back of the mag?
I was wondering ... perhaps we could get some ads placed for theFretBoard
We might have to make the wording of the ads a little "clever" to get past the censors, but if we could sneak a couple in, it'd be more free publicity for us. And I like the idea of getting free publicity for theFretBoard in the Guitarist magazine ...

I think they still do have classifieds, I buy it most months but I must say that I haven't looked in classfieds for at least 5 years! I reckon the problem is those few still using it haven't yet heard of the interwebnet and thus probably also don't know what a forum is either! Nothing to lose though I guess.
I say we go for a full back cover, I'm bored of those bloody Vox ads

To me the zenith of guitar magazines was Guitar Player in the '80s. It used to feature superbly detailed, long form interviews where players were questioned at length about technique, how their guitars were set up, influences, etc. Very different from today's 'tell us about your Two Rock signature amp' approach. GP's writers were true experts (George Gruhn wrote their vintage guitar column, Tom Wheeler was editor, etc).
Maybe in a world which seems to value Graham Norton and Jonathan Ross more highly than Parky, we simply get what we deserve.....
Guitarist occupies a very definite space. If PRS fart, they'll devote pages to it. They've been getting a bit too Top Gear, although I do find the challenges they've had a bit more interesting than yet another £5k custom model being reviewed.
Guitar and Bass has come on leaps and bounds from its early un-guitar stance.
Still waiting for someone to do consistent reviews of the sorts of models most people will buy.
The modern day Guitarist has what in record terms might be considered 'high product values'. It is a shame the content is so thin....
