Softcover These are the guitars so famous that their names are often household words: B. B. King''s Lucille, Eric Clapton''s Blackie, Stevie Ray Vaughan''s First Wife, Billy F Gibbons'' Pearly Gates, Neil Young''s Old Black, and many more. Here''s the first-ever illustrated history of the actual guitars of the stars that made the music. Other best-selling guitar histories look at the rank-and-file models, but this book is unique in profiling the actual star guitars - the million-dollar babies, such as the 1968 Stratocaster that Jimi Hendrix burned at Woodstock, which sold at Sotheby''s auction house in 1993 for $1,300,000. Amateurs buy guitars to emulate the stars - Clapton''s Strat, Slash''s Les Paul - and this book explains the stars'' modifications, thus showing how others can recreate those famous tones.Softcover These are the guitars so famous that their names are often household words: B.
