Description: The SG Guitar Book by Tony Bacon Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description SG GUITAR BOOK: 50 YEARS OF GIBSONS STYLISH GUITAR Publisher Description To many vintage guitar fans, it seems inconceivable that Gibson dumped the Sunburst Les Paul in 1960 and, during the following year, introduced a completely new design, the one that we know now as the SG (solid guitar). At the time, however, it made good business sense. Sales of the Les Paul were faltering, and Gibson decided to blow a breath of fresh air through its solid body electric guitar line. The company described the result as an ultra-thin, hand-contoured, double-cutaway body. The modernistic amalgam of bevels and points and angles was a radical departure, and this new book tells the story of all the SG models that followed: the Junior, Special, Standard, Custom, and more There are interviews with and stories about Gibson personnel through the years, and all the major SG players, including Pete Townshend, Frank Zappa, Eric Clapton, Angus Young, George Harrison, Gary Rossington, Tony Iommi, and Derek Trucks. In the tradition of Tony Bacons bestselling series of guitar books, The SG Guitar Book is three great volumes in one package: a collection of drool-worthy pictures of the coolest guitars; a gripping story from the earliest prototypes to the latest exploits; and a detailed collectors database of every production SG model ever made. Author Biography TONY BACON (Bristol) writes about musical instruments, musicians, and music. He is a co-founder of Backbeat UK and Jawbone Press. Bacons books include Squier Electrics: 30 Years of Fenders Budget Guitar Brand, The Ultimate Guitar Book, and History of the American Guitar.
