Summary: acoustic guitar magazine
Comment: I have been buying this mag since its inception, I have saved many of the issues because the info has been extremely helpful for my guitar playing and being able to read about the pros that i listen to , how they write, play,what they use for equipment has been intertaining and informative. they have recently made changes in format and writing mostly for the better.I espeally apreceate their having more on song writing. as far as i'm concerned this is the best guitar mag out there and i'm a guitar magazine junky enjoy.

Summary: Too many ads
Comment: I took this magazine using a card that gave me 15 issues for
15 dollars. Seemed like a good deal. However, I am very disappointed
in the content of this magazine and will not renew. All the instrument
reviews praise every instrument they cover. I went to a guitar store
and tried out a couple of them and was very disappointed with some of
their selections. They were pure junk. With that in mind, I have no confidence in their reviews and their magazine. I receive the issues
1-2 months before the cover date. That's OK but the web links to the
listening clips are not active at that time. By the time the cover date
comes around I have moved on. Don't waste your money on this magazine.

Summary: Terrible Customer Service
Comment: I read a few reviews on amazon and other sites about Acoustic Guitar before deciding to subscribe to it. I paid them on the 1st of May 2006 and my first copy was supposed to be the July issue (which hasn't yet turned up), on writing to them I got a response saying that I should expect it any day, well I bought their word for it, but it never reached me. It was the same story for every issue and everytime I would write to them, all that they had to say is that I should reconfirm my postal address (which is ridiculous cause I had been getting their renewal notices before even a single issue reached me, and I had brought that to their notice).
I even asked them for the details of shippment so that I could trace my subscription, to which I was informed that it had been shipped by surface mail (which is ridiculous cause I had paid them for international shipping), well then I finally asked them to courier the subscription to me for an additional cost atleast I would get my magazine, well they did just that and I had my September issue in 2 days (all this after countless mails trying to prove that I was a genuine subscriber and that my intentions were as clear as un-polluted rain-water).
Well then I waited anxiously for the next issue, which hasn't yet turned up and when I loged into my account on their site it showed that my november issue had also been shipped (they resorted to surface shipping); well as you can guess I had to re-request them to resort to air shipping but now it seems like they have stoped acknowledging my mails; and I keep mailing them in the hope that I'll get what's mine but to no response. So for $40 I've just recieved my Sepetember issue (after countless mails requesting for something that I have paid for) and yes renewal notices by post :D (which is ridiculous)
So my suggestion to people who want to subscribe to this magazine anywhere outside America would be to rethink bout it or if they get kicks out of requesting for something that is theirs, well then you should subscribe to Acoustic Guitar. I wasted my $40, which I doubt they'll refund, cause they don't even acknowledge my email :S

Summary: Great Magazine
Comment: Unless you're into shredding, adding unnatural effects to your sound, or the latest opinions of the hard/punk rockers, this is the magazine for you. Filled with useful lessons and tips for everything from blues and country to swing and jazz, and, naturally, a lot of ads for acoustic guitars. Also, it doesn't seem to focus on any particular age group in it's ads or featured interviews/articles as many of the others do.

Summary: A Good Quality Acoustic Guitar Magazine
Comment: This a good magazine for someone who wants to learn to play folk or fingerstyle music. I have tried all of the other magazines and this magazine as far as content and price are above the rest. That being said, this magazine is only a good suppliment for your guitar learning. Even if you don't desire to do anything but strum an acoustic guitar, I don't think this magazine can be your one source of literature. I would recommend that this magazine be purchased along with one of the mainstream magazines such as Guitar One or Guitar World.
