Not specifically guitar related – but this is amazing MUSIC.
The site playingforchange.com has some amazing stuff. As the site states,
Playing for Change is a multimedia movement created to inspire, connect, and bring peace to the world through music.
The “Stand By Me” rendition is awe inspiring!

UK Survey of the best guitar sites
The UK music store Dolphin Music recently surveyed users about the best online guitar sites. The results are interesting and there are some definite “nuggets” in here. Take a look…hopefully mymojo will make the list next year.

What does Player X use for a rig setup?

Ever wonder what your favorite player uses for a rig setup? I do. Well the folks over at Guitar Geek.com can probably help. They have an EXTENSIVE database of rig setups. I wish I had the cash to build some of these.

Great online tutorials
Over the course of learning to play guitar I’ve viewed MANY online tutorials and “play-alongs”. Many of these have been good and most of them have been marginal. However, I recently came across Mark McGuigan’s site mastertheguitar.co.uk – Man – I love Mark’s lessons. If I lived in the UK Mark would definitely be my instructor! Be sure to check them out.

Boss Pedal Demo

With the decline in local music shops it is sometimes challenging for guitar players to “try before you buy” unless you want to go visit one of the big box stores. Thankfully, the power of the Internet allows us to fill in some of the blanks. Here is a great example. Boss has a cool web applet that lets you sample the sounds of their pedal line. Check it out.
