Total Guitar Annual (2025)

This year’s Total Guitar Annual is packed with a stacked setlist of in-depth features, all-access interviews, expert advice and much more. Inside, we’ll pay tribute to 70 years of the iconic Fender Stratocaster before turning our eyes to another guitar legend: Joe Perry. Speaking of iconic guitarists, we count down the most influential axe-wielders to ever take the stage. Throughout, we’ll also spotlight the acts that have been making waves over the last 12 months, from St Vincent to The Last Dinner Party, Gary Clark Jr and more! Of course, it’s not Total Guitar without tutorials, and we’ve got you covered in this year’s annual. Fancy a masterclass with Justin Hawkins, Cory Wong, Sophie Lloyd and Josh Middleton? Look no further! Or perhaps you’d like to tune up your tone? What about your rhythm guitar? Blues? Acoustic chords? There’s enough crammed here to keep any guitarist busy.
