Performing as a solo acoustic act can represent either an artistic breakthrough or the kiss

Hi! I'm Peter Hodgson. I've been a professional music journalist since 1997. Over the years you may have seen my writing on Guitar World, Premier Guitar, Seymour Duncan, Gibson.com, Australian Guitar, Australian Musician, Mixdown Magazine, Blunt, Beat, The Brag, StarWars.com and many more. I've done corporate writing for Roland, Yamaha, Fender, Seymour Duncan, Gibson and plenty more. So hit me up if you're a guitar company that needs a writer or social media guy, okay?

I've been playing guitar since I was 8 years old. I've also worked as a guitar teacher (up to 50 students a week), a setup tech, a newspaper editor, and I've dabbled in radio a little bit. I live in Melbourne, Australia with my wonderful wife Pilgrim, our son, our dog and kitty, and my hobbies include drinking way too much coffee, eating way too much Mexican food, and being an aging goth.

You can check out my guitar playing at Bandcamp or on YouTube, check out the I Heart Guitar podcast and feel free to email me at peter@iheartguitarblog.com - oh and unsolicited SEO service emails will be printed out just so I can have the tactile pleasure of having something to scrunch up and throw in the trash.
