Great British Electric Guitar Bible

Anyone else bought this special edition by Guitar and Bass Magazine? (There is also one about repairs and modifications etc)

There are articles about British made guitars- Burns, Vox, Grimshaw, Zemaitis etc and British players, with some Shads/Hank references, although a lot of the material has been featured previously in the regular magazine.

Not a bad read on a cold Oz winter evening...

This is part of their Guitar Classics series, which is - as John says - reprints of articles from previous magazines, but a handy way of gathering them together. Did spot a couple of inaccuracies, though.

As well as the D-I-Y one which John mentions, there is also an Electric Guitar Bible, a Fender Guitar Bible and a Gibson Guitar Bible.

In keeping with others in the Guitar Classics series, some articles have indeed been re-printed from previous copies of Guitar & Bass magazine, but other features are actually all-new, including 'Local Heroes', which is a history of UK-made electrics. This latest issue is currently on sale in W.H. Smiths and the retail price is £7.99.

I spotted this a few weeks back but thought it a little over priced.

But couldn't resist it and picked one up in Smiths, today.

Some tasty pics. :)
