Description
A must-have for any guitar lover!
The Illustrated Catalog of Guitars introduces the reader to 250 guitars of all types, from the early acoustic archtop designs of the Gibson L-5 in the late 1920s, through the National resonators of the 1930s, the hollow body electric Gibsons of the 1950s, the solid body Fenders of the 1960s, to the exoskeletal carbon and glass fibre of the Parker Fly of the 1990s.
Each entry features a clear colour photograph of the guitar along with a detailed shot highlighting a point of particular interest. The description and technical specifications accompany each instrument. The book is organised in alphabetical order by the maker's name and coded by the type of guitar.
The guitar has had a profound influence on various musical forms, including blues, bluegrass, country, flamenco, jazz, folk, heavy metal, rock, soul, reggae, and modern pop.
