Anyone with an interest in the development of the electric guitar should snap up this book immediately. Kenny Vaughan of The Fabulous Superlatives gave this book a high recommendation in a YouTube interview and I definitely don’t regret following up on his recommendation.What I found particularly interesting was that Leo Fender, Les Paul, and Paul Bigsby all hung out together in their early days in California. Their interaction was certainly the driving force in the advent of the solid-body electric guitar.The main focus is on Fender and the process leading to his guitars and amps eventually dominating the field. We also learn a lot about Gibson and, of course, Les Paul’s musical career. Bigsby, and also Rickenbacker, get their share of coverage, but solid-body guitars were not really their thing.If guitars are your topic, and you have a historical bent, you gotta get this book! It’s well-written and endlessly fascinating.

Neben "In his own Words" über das Leben von Les Paul für mich das wichtigste Buch zur Geschichte der E-Gitarre.

Very well researched and interesting read that charts the roots and evolution of the electric guitar, and in particular the rivalry that existed from the 1950s between the Fender and Gibson guitar brands. It’s a very reader-friendly book, with each chapter length making it the perfect book to read at bedtime, and also each chapter delivering some great ‘nuggets’ of inside knowledge about both the instruments and the artists of the time. I learnt a lot, and for me this was genuinely a book that I kept picking up to read at every opportunity. Highly recommended!

Compré la edición pasta suave. El libro es bastante ligero, y las hojas de papel son delgadas. Excepto las centrales que tienen fotos de alta calidad, pero en blanco y negro. Este papel es más grueso.Tiene 42 capítulos cortos que se pueden leer en poco tiempo si te propones ir por capítulo. Lo bueno es que está escrito de una forma amigable, por lo que la lectura se hace amena y sencilla de digerir. Está escrito en inglés, y hasta donde sé, no hay versión en español.Recomendado para quien le interese la vida de Leo Fender y Les Paul, y sus creaciones y la influencia que tuvo en el mundo de las guitarras y de la música como tal.Lo compré a excelente precio, por lo que si lo pueden comprar igual en especial, no duden en hacerlo.

The real history of guitar and the people who made it a cultural icon is presented is this book with such a “novel”way of writing.
