The best guitars of 2020, including models from B&G, Nik Huber, Gretsch and Music Man.

From big-name brands like Fender and Taylor to boutique gems from McNally and Atkin Guitars.

These are the best new stompboxes of 2020, featuring Walrus Audio, Danelectro and an electrifying fuzz from Latvia.

Are digital amps the new normal?

Wireless systems, an amp-headphone hybrid, a Paul Kossoff-inspired PAF and more.

These instruments may come with eye-watering price tags, but if you’ve got the dough, you’ll find no better electric guitars on the market today.

Ten of our favourite affordable electric guitars of the year, starring the Fender Vintera range, a super Sterling by Music Man and a Chapman Strat-style guitar.

Pedals are a vital part of a guitarist's rig, and thankfully, 2019 was a great year for effects units. From the Strymon Volante, an exceptional echo machine, to the Beetronics Swarm, a devastating fuzz box, this year saw the introduction of dozens of great pedals.
