'Guitar' is an all-in-one guide to choosing and playing a guitar. It starts with an inspirational look at the world's most influential players from many different musical genres, including rock, pop, classical, flamenco, and jazz.
The next section features colour photographs and descriptions of more than 50 guitars to help the reader identify what other guitarists use to create their sound, and choose the right guitar for their own requirements. The section charts the history of the guitar from its earliest days, and shows the difference between resonator, archtop, steel and nylon string, and electric guitars.
An 84-page section explains exactly how to play the guitar. This detailed and authoritative section is suitable for both the absolute beginner and the more experienced player who wants to learn advanced techniques. There is also an essential and comprehensive chord dictionary.
