The latest addition to Tony Bacon's acclaimed series of guitar books Ê60 Years of FenderÊ gives a year-by-year history of the most successful electric guitar maker. In 1950 Leo Fender introduced to the world the solidbody electric guitar ä the instrument known as the Telecaster. He soon added two more classics: the Precision Bass (1951) and the Stratocaster (1954). Fender's sleek adaptable guitars have since fueled modern music ä from country to rock ä and have been heard in the hands of virtually every guitarist of note from Buddy Holly to Kurt Cobain from Eric Clapton to John Mayer. Illustrated with an unrivaled gallery of color photographs of instruments players and memorabilia this revised and updated edition expands upon Ê50 Years of FenderÊ (published in 2000) covering nine more years of the Fender story.Þ A must-have for any Fender fan. Highly entertaining. Þä ÊGuitar PlayerÊ
