Having both shaped and been shaped by the twentieth century music explosion, the guitar is now heard around the world, a common denominator among diverse cultures and musical genres. This calendar presents twelve extraordinary guitars...acoustic and electric, antique and avant-garde--selected by historian and musician Robert Shaw, who provides informed commentary about their histories, manufacture, and characteristics.
