In each quarterly issue, The Fretboard Journal celebrates the innovators of the music world and the tools they use, acoustic and electric, weird and collectible. You'll find famous musicians interviewing other famous musicians about the equipment they use; profiles of some of the world's finest luthiers; and great essays covering the historical context of legendary recordings. With original photography, archival quality paper, and minimal advertising, each issue will be a keepsake you'll cherish. Unlike most guitar magazines, The Fretboard Journal doesn't review gear or feature instructional pieces; it simply covers the great stories behind musical instruments and musicians. Whether your interest is old-time music or indie rock (or somewhere in between), you'll find something in each eclectic issue specifically for you. ## Images ![Fretboard Journal Print Magazine - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/W/WEBP_402378-T2/images/I/51L08gq60wL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐ A great magazine with less than stellar distribution *by D***R on Reviewed in the United States on December 1, 2014* I am very happy with this magazine as it is more of an art piece than a periodical on the same old stuff for guitar players. I recommend it to all guitar lovers. If there is a problem with the magazine itself, it is that it is not published often enough. 4 issues per year may leave you wanting more. The bigger problem though is in its distribution (This is also the reason for only the 3 stars). I have had my subscription for a year now. The first 2 magazines were delivered without problem but the 3rd was a no show. I called and after 2 attempts was sent another issue. The 4th (and last) in my subscription is still missing in action. I have emailed and called without reply but do not have the time to continue to spend for a $10 magazine. While I recommend the journal, I would say it may be advantageous for the reader to find/locate a good distributor or bookstore that sells it and pick it up there on a regular basis. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A guitar lovers periodical *by O***E on Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2011* Most magazines, and guitar magazines included, are primarily mediums to distribute advertising. This is NOT one of those. While it does have ads, they are aimed at the knowledgeable, not the impetuous. FBJ has well written, insightful articles about the music, and the people and instruments which make it. FBJ, as its name implies, explores not just guitars, but all fretted instruments, which allows a great expansion of many readers' perception of the art. The articles are long enough to wonderfully cover the subject, a refreshing change from most periodicals where article size cuts down on ad space and articles are often designed to sell advertiser's product. It explores the artists and instruments of the past and the present. It's one-on-one interviews are exceptional. Pictures are high quality, relevant, and large. Most of all, FBJ carries the reader into the very personal world of instrument making and playing like no other source will, and it delivers four times a year. An exceptional magazine by, for, and about an exceptional group of musicians and instruments. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Well written odes to stringed instruments *by I***H on Reviewed in the United States on August 31, 2017* The best writing I've found in a beautifully done quarterly about stringed instruments and the people who love them. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/9962419-fretboard-journal-print-magazine](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/9962419-fretboard-journal-print-magazine) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
