The right combination of gear is often very hard to find. As players we can spend a very long time developing our own sound and tone. Constantly chasing the sound inside our heads. We can start out with holding the Holy Grail of aged guitars and plugging into our handwired amps and yet, still no gaurantees that this set-up is going to allow us to play our way to the promised land of great tone. So what is missing from the equation? What it really boils down to is experience. Whether it be our own trial and errors or taking the advice of others. We all stand to benefit from the exchange of our experiences and collect a better sense of the inner workings the electric guitar itself. That is the mission of this community, to help everyone gain awareness and insight into their own playing and gear choices.
 
At The Smokin' Guitar we're looking forward to having fun while providing a database of knowledge centered around the electric guitar. By sharing our experiences through our forum and review pages on this website we can all garner an appreciation for the benefits of the Communication Age. Our hope is to engage a deeper level of understanding of what it takes achieve the sound inside our heads.
