A must have for anyone with interest in Vintage Guitars by one of the worlds leading experts. Full d

Number one book on Vintage Guitars, an absolute must havel

this book has a LOT of information............

If you collect or deal in guitars, there will be times when you say "hmmm.....I wonder about the specifications of this guitar.....is this original?......are these the correct components?......what should it really look like?" or some such musing. Well, if you have this book, you've just dramatically increased the chances of arriving at the right answer.

THE authoritative guide.

I am a collector of vintage stringed instruments. I purchased George Gruhn's first volume in 1991, which was called the "Guide to Vintage Guitars". As I used it, I found that it corraborated, expanded and corrected the many other sources I use. The 2nd edition is greatly expanded, and now includes "American Fretted Instruments". It continues to be the most usable, informative and authoritative guide to vintage stringed instruments I am aware of. This is my "go to" guide. All other sources are used for additional detail and corraboration. A must have reference for anyone interested in vintage stringed instruments.

Fine! Splendid !!

You can get all information quick and without doubt !! I had the first edition, but this second edition is a lot more complete and updated !!!

Gruhn's Guide to Vintage Guitars: (2nd Ed)

The 2nd edition of Gruhn's book is one of two books that every guitar collector will want to own. This edition is better than the first with 100 pages of new information. If you own the first edition and have been wondering if you should buy the second edition , buy it. I keep mine within reach of my bench. The second book I would recommend is "The Official Vintage Guitar Magazine Price Guide". Having these two books would make for a very educated consumer.

Excellent resource for guitar collectors.

This book is not a price guide, but is extremely valuable for identifying used and vintage instruments.
