Shaw, Robert: GREAT GUITARS, Levin, Hugh Lauter Associates 1998
ISBN: 0-88363-397-3 As New Condition

From the Publisher Great Guitars is a dream book for anyone who loves guitars. It presents a gallery of outstanding guitars of the past and present, ranging from a magnificently decorated instrument by the seventeenth-century German luthier Joachim Tielke to works by some of today's master craftspeople which marry skills honed over the centuries with innovative use of modern materials and technologies. Among the many rare and magnificent guitars pictured in full color are an 1834 flattop guitar by Christian Frederick Martin with an ivory fingerboard and headstock, a c. 1900 harp guitar hand carved by Orville Gibson, a Martin D-45 prototype made for Gene Autry, a teardrop-shaped archtop by John D'Angelico, and a 1952 doublenecked electric guitar by pioneer designer Paul Bigsby. The book's many unique instruments are juxtaposed with outstanding vintage examples of such classic production models as the Fender Telecaster and Stratocaster, the Gibson Les Paul, Flying V, and Explorer, the Hofner "Beatle" bass, and the Gretsch Chet Atkins Hollowbody. The extraordinary work of today's luthiers is represented in remarkable guitars by such renowned craftspeople as John Monteleone, Grit Laskin, Robert Bennedetto, Linda Manzer, and Abraham Wechter, while such revolutionary modern designs as the Steinberger headless bass and the Parker Fly point the way to the guitar of the future. These and other legendary guitars are complemented by historic black-and-white photographs of important musicians with their favorite instruments. The book's informative and insightful essays explore the technical and design innovations that shaped particular instruments as well as the ways in which such influential musicians as Andres Segovia, Robert Johnson, Maybelle Carter, Eddie Lang, Leadbelly, Django Reinhardt, B. B. King, Les Paul, Chet Atkins, Jimi Hendrix, and Eric Clapton have exploited and expanded the capabilities of the guitar. Synopsis Great Guitars is a dream book for anyone who loves guitars.
