Premier Guitar May 2015: If you're itching to mod your axe, you'll find tons to dig in this issue. Our cover story is an in-depth interview with BilT Guitars' Tim Thelen on the technical minutiae of installing effects in your guitar – as well as the musical epiphanies that await open-minded adventurers who walk this path. On the flip side, ace Nashville luthier Tony Nagy walks us through 10 mundane-seeming – but no less-impactful – ways to drastically alter the sound and responsiveness of your guitars for less than a hundred bucks. To round out the mod section we've even got a gallery of PG readers' own guitar mods. Other features this month include interviews with the always-entertaining Noel Gallagher, prog-rock veteran Mike Rutherford, and Awolnation's Adam Bruno. We've also got a Forgotten Heroes piece on late Chili Pepper Hillel Slovak, and acoustic troubadour Pete Huttlinger's advice on gigging with your flattop. Gear reviews this issue include guitar and bass products from Dunlop, Taylor, Danelectro, Korg, Supro, Engl, Relish Guitars, Xotic, DV Mark, JHS, Keeley, and more.
