Guitarists are, naturally, inspired by guitar heroes through the
ages, which in turn might inspire the choice to play a certain type
of guitar. This book bridges the gap between those heroes and their
guitars of choice, detailing elements of their playing and tone,
respectively. This book also covers genre and style cues,
amplifiers, pedals, and more.
