Hi there! I’m Oscar Colorado, a lifelong guitar enthusiast with nearly 40 years of experience. Over the years, I’ve realized that playing guitar is about so much more than just learning chords, scales, or theory—it’s a journey filled with gear, tone, practice techniques, inspiration, and finding ways to stay motivated when things get tough.

I started this blog to share everything I’ve learned along the way—and everything I wish I’d known when I was starting out. Whether you’re a seasoned player or just picking up the guitar for the first time, this blog is for you. My goal is to create a space where we can connect, learn, and celebrate our shared passion for this amazing instrument. From tips and gear reviews to stories about legendary players and insights into the guitar community, I hope to make this a place that inspires and informs.

Let’s dive into the incredible world of guitars together—you’re in for an unforgettable ride!

This blog stems from a deep passion for the guitar, with no aim for financial gain or personal profit. Its mission is to share knowledge, educational content, reviews, and news from the guitar world—fostering a community where fellow enthusiasts can explore, learn, and connect through our shared love of music. You won’t find advertisements or sponsored posts here—just genuine content created for purposes of criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, and research. I personally cover all hosting and maintenance costs, making this blog a heartfelt endeavor that operates at a loss but is driven by a sincere desire to share my passion with you.
