Clapton's Guitar
Author: Allen St. JohnPublisher: Free Press
ISBN: 9780743266369
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
New York Times bestselling author Allen St. John started off looking for the world’s greatest guitar, but what he found instead was the world’s greatest guitar builder. Living and working in Rugby, Virginia (population 7), retired rural mail carrier Wayne Henderson is a true American original, making America's finest instruments using little more than a pile of good wood and a sharp whittling knife. There's a 10-year waiting list for Henderson's heirloom acoustic guitars—and even a musical legend like Eric Clapton must wait his turn. Partly out of self-interest, St. John prods Henderson into finally building Clapton's guitar, and soon we get to pull up a dusty stool and watch this Stradivari in glue-stained blue jeans work his magic. The story that ensues will captivate you with its portrait of a world where craftsmanship counts more than commerce, and time is measured by old jokes, old-time music, and homemade lemon pies shared by good friends.

The methodology section of this eBook offers the intermediate to advanced guitarist many new ideas which can be added to their arsenal. Thebook also includes a full songbook section with an evenwider repertoire to pursue. All of the lessons and songs are written in tablature only, so you don't have to read music, just count!
