Cover feature: Gretsch Streamliner
Inside you'll find the full story and review behind the amazingly affordable new Gretsch Streamliner series, tips for setting up a Bigsby, plus some Gretsch inspired Rock 'n' Roll/Rockabilly/Psychobilly licks to learn!

Tunes
We've tabbed Michael Jackson 'Beat It' in full (including THAT solo!), Jamie Lawson's mammoth hit 'Wasn't Expecting That', plus video lessons for three classic David Bowie riffs, and Megadeth's 'The Threat Is Real'. As always, you can find studio-quality backing tracks for these songs on your free TG CD.

Interviews
On top of all that, we've got interviews with Dream Theater's John Petrucci, The Maccabees' Hugo White talks recording guitars and we sit down with Mark Tremonti and Wearing Scars for a melodic metal Round Table.

Gear
We bring you the latest gear from Gretsch, Fender, Catalinbread, Boss and loads more, plus we've picked our highlights from the NAMM show!

Drums

I'm a freelance member of the MusicRadar team, specialising in drum news, interviews and reviews. I formerly edited Rhythm and Total Guitar here in the UK and have been playing drums for more than 25 years (my arms are very tired). When I'm not working on the site, I can be found on my electronic kit at home, or gigging and depping in function bands and the odd original project.
