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 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, and my hobbies include drinking way too much coffee, and eating way too much Mexican food.

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.
