For our 50th issue of the Fretboard Journal, we pulled out all the stops: A new redesign, our biggest page count to date (144), and a collection of never-before-seen stories and photo essays we know you'll love. 

In this issue: We explore early Fender guitar history thanks to historian Terry Foster and photographer John Peden; talk bluegrass with Bela Fleck; explore the photography of pedal maven Josh Scott; and learn about guitarist Bruce Forman's latest acquisition, Barney Kessel's Gibson ES-350. Plus so much more.
