  • Quarto, hardcover (slick, full-color photo. illus. boards), [160] pp. Fine (As New) in a Fine dust jacket. From dust jacket: The guitar. It is without doubt the musical instrument that played the soundtrack to the twentieth century. It is a symbol of youth, freedom, rebellion. Playing uitar -- however badly -- is as much a part of the American experience as that first crush or first car. Such memories are what this book is about. This Old Guitar is a treasury of short stories, essays, tall tales, and reminiscences, all devoted to the guitar and the special role it plays in our lives. The authors of the pieces collected in this anthology come from a wide range of backgrounds: some are music journalists and historians; some are regular folk with a story to share about their favorite guitar. Rounding out the selection are recollections from guitar heroes such as Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, Muddy Waters, Eddie Van Halen, Les Paul, T-Bone Walker, Dicky Betts, B. B. King, Willie Nelson, and more. These stories are complemented by an eye-pleasing mix of artwork, including black-and-white historical photos, current color shots of collectible guitars, posters, ads, and more. If you still remember that first guitar, still play guitar, still turn your amp to "10", or still dream guitars, then this book is for you.
