New issue out now!
This month, we speak to Carmen Vandenberg and bandmate Rosie Bones of rising stars Bones UK, who are innovating with tone on new album Soft, employing a raft of fuzz pedals, pitch shifters and synth pedals. In TG’s exclusive interview, Carmen explains how she’s making guitar sounds you’ve never heard before in songs you won’t forget, and channelling blues, Jimi Hendrix and her mentor Jeff Beck – all in the pursuit of authenticity.
Also inside: Metallica’s Kirk Hammett outlines his top playing tips, and Carlos Alomar gives his account of the inspiring time he spent working with David Bowie. You’ll find lessons on funk, blues and three great songs, plus gear reviews from Fender, Epiphone, Line 6 and much more.

I still can’t believe it. We lost a legend. A pioneer. A musical revolutionary. One of the kindest, most humble and caring humans to walk this earth and grace us with his talent. A mentor and most of all a great friend. You changed mine and many others lives. I learnt more from you than I could ever put into words. We will all love you forever Jeff. Your laugh, your joie de vivre, insatiable passion for music and thirst for innovation will be missed. Your legacy will continue to inspire generations, as musicians and as human beings. Sending love to you, S, and all those who love you.
Boys will be girls, girls will be boys effortlessly
