About this product

Product Information

Is the sunburst Gibson Les Paul Standard really the greatest electric guitar ever made? This books aims to answer that question, even if so many players and collectors have already sounded a loud Yes!. Famously played by Eric Clapton and Jimmy Page, this fabulous instrument, known simply as the Burst, has become a legend. Through a series of interviews with players, collectors, guitar-makers, dealers, and more, Sunburst unravels a myth and puts into sharp focus how 1,400 or so guitars produced at the end of the '50s became the most desirable electrics of all time. This guitar - a solid body electric with mahogany body, twin humbuckers, and a two-colour sunburst maple top - was first made from 1958 to 1960. The book examines those originals, the various reissues over the years, and the latest efforts by Gibson to re-create the hallowed guitars in its original factory in Kalamazoo, Michigan. Sunburst is the latest book in Tony Bacon's bestselling guitar series, with a thoroughly researched story partnered by a gallery of full-colour pictures of great guitars, rare memorabilia, and famous Burst players - from Keith Richards to Joe Bonamassa and Jeff Beck to Billy Gibbons. Its reference section reveals production details and dating clues for this most enigmatic and revered instrument.

  • Quality exuding from every page.

    Very good, lots of new information for me, and I thought I knew a lot anyway. Hard to put down, a rattling good read that had me interested all the way through. Tony Bacon is an old hand at this stuff, I'm sure I remember him from NME fron the 70's, so he has his bona fides. I would happily buy any of his books, as they are very very well constructed. This print was very crisp, the text beautifully presented and the colour photographs free from blur. Overall a quality book from a superb writer.
