GuitarTV.com Introduces The Periodic Table of Guitarists
After several weeks of hardcore nerding, GuitarTV.com has debuted The Periodic Table of Guitarists, an encyclopedic foray into the lives of scores of iconic guitarists.
The layout, which is based on the Periodic Table of Elements, showcases every artist who appears on GuitarTV.com, complete with their bio, downloadable MP3s, signature guitar, amplifier, effects, latest news, tablature files and touring schedule.
GuitarTV.com will be continuously adding names to the list.
GuitarTV.com features 24-hour videos of guitar performances and features free, live HD broadcasts of outstanding players. The site allows users to submit their videos to be featured on GuitarTV.com and on its Comcast On Demand channel.

Damian is Editor-in-Chief of Guitar World magazine. In past lives, he was GW’s managing editor and online managing editor. He's written liner notes for major-label releases, including Stevie Ray Vaughan's 'The Complete Epic Recordings Collection' (Sony Legacy) and has interviewed everyone from Yngwie Malmsteen to Kevin Bacon (with a few memorable Eric Clapton chats thrown into the mix). Damian, a former member of Brooklyn's The Gas House Gorillas, was the sole guitarist in Mister Neutron, a trio that toured the U.S. and released three albums. He now plays in two NYC-area bands.
