Affiliate Disclosure

The Guitar Plugged is a reader-supported publication. We participate in several affiliate programs, which means we may earn a small commission when you buy gear through links on the site — at no additional cost to you.

Programs we participate in

• Amazon Associates — using affiliate tag patricklawlor-20
• Reverb (via Awin) — for used and boutique gear
• Fender (via Impact) — for Fender guitars, basses, and amps
• Brand-direct partner programs with select manufacturers we trust

What you should know

• Affiliate links are marked with rel="sponsored" for transparency to search engines and readers.
• Affiliate commissions help fund the time spent researching, testing, and writing articles. They keep most of The Guitar Plugged free to read; a selection of long-form features is reserved for TGP Premium members.
• Commissions never influence which products we cover, how we rate them, or what we recommend. See our Editorial Policy.
• We routinely link to products we recommend even when the retailer doesn't offer an affiliate program, and we leave out paid placements that don't meet our standards.

Sponsored content

If we ever publish a sponsored article, it will be clearly labeled "Sponsored" or "Paid Partnership" at the top of the piece — separate from regular editorial coverage.
