A team of expert writers and journalists, including Tom Wheeler, Tony Bacon, Charles Shaar Murray, and Paul Day, reveal the story of the ultimate rock 'n' roll, blues, and jazz instrument in a glorious retrospective of the electric guitar's 40-year history. In addition to fascinating commentary, this strikingly illustrated volume depicts fine examples of key guitars, each profiled and beautifully photographed to capture their individual design and character. The book covers such pioneering models as the Gibson ES150 and classics like the Strato-caster, Telecaster, and Les Paul, as well as the newest generation of designs from such master craftsmen as Paul Reed Smith and Ned Steinberger. A foreword by The Rolling Stones' Keith Richards, along with excerpts from interviews with B.B. King, Les Paul, Jeff Beck, Carlos Santana, and Mark Knopfler, among others, complete this tribute to the magnificent instrument that made it all possible for fans of rock 'n' roll, blues, and jazz.
