Excerpt from dust jacket, This important new work tells the story of 150 years of American guitar history through over 300 rare and exceptional instruments from the stunning collection of Scott Chinery.

From that historic moment the reader is taken on a fascinating and comprehensive tour of guitar history. The many highlights of the Collection are showcased here in lavish, full-color photography, with over 300 instruments from more thant 75 brandnames that also include Bigsby, Ditson, Dobro, Dyer, Epiphone, Gretsch, Kay, Maccaferri, Micro-Frets, Mosrite, Oahu, Regal, Rickenbacker, Stella, Stromberg, Vega, Washburn, Wilkanowski and many more. Selected prime instruments are shown in extra-large size on special three-page foldouts strategically positioned throughout the book.
