From the award -winning team that produced the best-selling Ultimate Guitar Book comes this comprehensive pictorial history of the genuine classics to have emerged during the history of the guitar. Classic Guitars illustrates the full story of the instrument – from early flat-top acoustic guitars of blues and folk players, on to the semi-hollow body instruments so beloved of jazz and blues guitarists in the 40s and 50s, and through to the iconic shapes of the solid body guitars that rewrote the history of rock music in the 60s and 70s and helped create a modern cultural phenomenon. This book’s A-to-Z format details more than 400 models from over 90 manufacturers, illustrated throughout by an unrivaled collection of studio-quality color photographs showcasing the brilliance, versatility, and sometimes downright eccentricity of guitar designers from around the world. This is a book that every guitar player or enthusiast should have on their bookshelves to be referred to again and again.
