Guitar: The World's Most Seductive Instrument

Guitar: The World's Most Seductive Instrument

Celebrate the significance, the magic, and theÂ mojo of the worldâ€™s most seductive instrument.
Â
An obsessive, full-color book presented in an irresistible slipcase, Guitar features 200 instruments in stunning detail. Here are icons, like Princeâ€™s Yellow Cloud, Willie Nelsonâ€™s â€œTrigger,â€ Muddy Waterâ€™s Thunderbird, and â€œRocky,â€ lovingly hand-painted by its owner, George Harrison. Historic instrumentsâ€”Fenderâ€™s Broadcaster, Les Paulâ€™s â€œLog,â€ the Gibson Nick Lucas Special, the very first artist model. Hand-carved archtops, pinnacles of the luthierâ€™s art, from John Dâ€™Angelico to Ken Parker. Stunning acoustics from a new wave of women builders, like Rosie Heydenrych of England, whoâ€™s known to use 5,000-year-old wood retrieved from a peat bog. And quirky one-of-a-kind guitars, like Linda Manzerâ€™s Pikasso IIâ€”four necks, 42 strings, and a thousand pounds of pressure.
Â
Marrying pure visual pleasure with layers of information, Guitar is a glorious gift for every guitar-lover
