Practice Tips for Learning an Instrument
When you’re learning a musical instrument, whether you are just starting out or already have some of the basics down, the most critical thing you can do to improve is to learn to practice effectively.
  • In the 1950s, it was rare to open up a magazine and find a woman playing one of rock and roll’s most coveted instruments. Thanks to pioneering guitarists like Mary Kaye, often referred to as the “First Lady of Rock and Roll,” more women than ever are playing guitar, with artists like Nita Strauss and St. Vincent unveiling their signature models in recent years.
  • Every guitar has a story to tell but not often do we get to know it so completely. Our Vintage team recently came across a rare single-owner 1963 Gibson SG Custom with a Cherry finish. We sat down with our Director of Used and Vintage, Jack Hetherington and Vintage Acquisition Manager Nick Conte to get the full details.
  • Jack Hetherington, Guitar Center's Director of Used and Vintage, has seen countless rare guitars, but when a single-owner 1958 Gibson Les Paul Custom came through the Hollywood Vintage Room, he had to share. We chatted with Jack about this unique instrument and the process of acquiring vintage guitars.

Buying Guides

  • Buying a wireless system may not seem as gratifying as getting a new guitar, which can offer different tonal possibilities and invigorate your playing with how it looks and feels; and it isn’t as justifiable as buying a new pedal, which can open up a whole new palette of textures and tone. In fact, the less a wireless system messes with your sound, the better. However, switching from a conventional cable to a wireless system inspires how you perform by literally unleashing you, allowing you to explore the stage and connect with your audience like never before.
