Guitar Wheel Gets A Top Recommendation in Education from Guitar World Magazine

Guitar World Magazine recommends the Guitar Wheel as one of the most outstanding educational resources in the July 2009 feature article titled "Schools Of Rock" beginning on page 158. Guitar World Magazine writer Chris Gill states, "We've put together a list of schools, workshops, lessons, and educational items that can significantly increase your playing skills and understanding of music theory."

Guitar World says the following about the Guitar Wheel: (Pg. 161)
THE GUITAR WHEEL is an easy-to-use tool designed to help musicians understand, analyze and visualize basic and intermediate music theory concepts. One side is designed exclusively for guitarists and features a scaled-down curved map of the fretboard, while the other side (Piano) is a helpful reference tool for players of any instrument. The wheel displays the relationships between keys, scales and chords, allowing you to visualize music theory on a unique note map simply by turning the tabs to desired settings (key; chords: major, minor, diminished; scales: major, minor, pentatonic, blues). The Guitar Wheel costs only $24.95 and is small enough to fit into your guitar case. Offered by Music Master Publishing, www.guitarwheel.com

Correction, the Guitar Wheel is only $14.99. So there is no excuse now! You must add the Guitar Wheel to your bag of music theory educational resources. For half the cost of a month of cable TV you can spend your summer months and many more learning to master music theory for guitar with the Guitar Wheel.

Among the schools, workshops, and lessons recommended in the Guitar World Magazine article are the following. We have relationship with teachers and guest artists in some of these schools who endorse using the Guitar Wheel as a teaching aid. I've placed an asterisk by them.

Press Release. For Immediate Release: Farley’s Musical Essentials taking on Guitar Wheel brand.

Accessories Inventors/Manufacturers Music Master Publishing and Farley’s Musical Essentials jointly announce a new relationship has been forged between the two companies. Farley’s will take on the Guitar Wheel brand as master distributor while Music Master Publishing reserves for itself the role of manufacturer and publisher of the Guitar Wheel and future Guitar Wheel branded books and teaching aids, and providing assistance in sales and marketing of both companies products.

“Everyone gains and no one looses. This coming together of two forces - each strong in it’s own right, provides the entrepreneurial drive necessary to support our international go-to-market strategy,” commented Music Master Publishing’s V.P. of Marketing Dustin Cheatham about the arrangement.

Founder of Farley's Essentials Michael Farley said, “We’re moving forward. Our objective would be to get our products spread from one end of the earth to the other. What I have discovered is that one product opens the door for another and developing relationships with distributors that want our products is key to success. “ Commenting about the business arrangement between Farley’s and MMP he said, “Two are better than one because they have a good return for their labor. It’s a give and take, not a take-take relationship.” Dustin and Michael are working closely together to help both companies reach their goals and provide excellent products and service to distributors.

Artist endorser and N.Y.C. Guitarist Tommy Bolan introduced Dustin and Michael back in the fall of 2008. Tommy is a powerful force in marketing himself, as Sales and Marketing Manager Bill Wenzloff, Morley Pedals, has aptly donned Tommy the title "King Of Promotion" K.O.P.

Farleys' Musical Essentials products are distributed in over 40 countries. Music Master Publishing's Guitar Wheel has enjoyed tremendous success selling direct to the end user online, as well as to stores and distributors. Musical accessory products offered by both companies can be seen on www.farleysessentials.com and www.guitarwheel.com

Guitarists Rock and Roll the Guitar Wheel at Winter NAMM

We are pleased to report that the Winter NAMM show was a huge hit for the Guitar Wheel. We had profitable appointments with distributors, dealers, music schools, and artists demoing at the booth. It has been 4 years since we first introduced the Guitar Wheel. It was awesome to hear from so many people that they have a Guitar Wheel, know somebody who has one, or have seen our ads in magazines.

Pictured here is Tommy Bolan, lead singer and guitarist for the band N.Y.C., rocking out. Tommy played at the booth Thursday, Friday and Saturday at. He was a crowd magnet.



German Schauss, "The Lightspeeder" was noted by Gutiar World Magazine this summer for being one of the 25 fastest guitar shredders in the world. He is a gutiar instructor at Berklee College of Music in Boston, MA and at the Los Angeles Music Acadamy, and also for the National Guitar Workshop.


Brev Sullivan and Crystal Fawn are the guitarist, and bass player for the band Featured on Fridays. Brev and Crystal also teach kids to how to rock at the School of Rock in Miami Florida. Brev is going to contribute a lesson to the Guitar Wheel book.


Fred Kowalo is a world touring gutiar tech for guitarists like the late Zackk Wylde of Black Label Society, Megadeth, and Alice in Chains. We welcome Fred to the family of Guitar Wheel artist endorsers. I'm sure there are many more acolades that I'm probably leaving out about Fred. Right away I did notice he is one of the nicest guys around.
