Guitar Player magazine, which has been appearing since 1967, is eliminating its print edition.
The final print issue, featuring a cover story interview with Led Zeppelin's Jimmy
Page, goes on sale October 15.
Readers will continue to be served through the magazine’s digital edition. Christopher Scapelliti will become digital editor in chief of
GuitarPlayer.com.
Guitar Player is “the world's oldest continuously published magazine devoted to guitarists, guitar gear – including electric
guitars and acoustic guitars – and instruction,” the editors write.
They continue that the magazine "has featured some of music's most important and iconic
guitarists, beginning with its December 1968 cover story on Jimi Hendrix.”
