Guitar Family Trees by Terry Burrows

Guitar Family Trees by Terry Burrows

Guitar Family Trees is a striking visual account of the most prominent guitars in the instrument's illustrious history, from the earliest Renaissance acoustics right up to state-of-the-art 21st century models. This comprehensive book charts the history of the most respected manufacturers and the evolution of their guitars in more detail than ever before. Specially designed photographic guitar family trees, including four special fold-outs, provide at-a-glance overviews of the development of every make and model, decade by decade. Terry Burrows then takes a close-up look at 200 iconic models to create an invaluable catalog of guitars. A stunning full-color photograph of each model is accompanied by informative text tracing its development, with key design and sound features highlighted, and an exhaustive specification list. Burrows also reveals the guitarists who love to play each model, and the tracks on which you can hear it played.

Terry Burrows is among the world's bestselling authors on the subject of the guitar and music tuition. His books have received forewords from an impressive, if bizarre, range of celebrities, among them The Rolling Stones' Bill Wyman and former Prime Minister, the late Sir Edward Heath. As a musician he has recorded over 40 albums under numerous pseudonyms.
