This issue, we're pitting two modern blues-rock guitar heroes against each other! It's well known that there's little love lost between Jack White and Dan Auerbach, but we're keeping it strictly about the guitars as we look at every aspect of Jack and Dan's playing, and decide who's the best guitarist.
On your TG CD you'll find five killer modern blues-rock riffs from Jack White, The Black Keys, Tame Impala, Band Of Skulls and Royal Blood
