GUITARIST ALMANAC By: Alan di Perna For guitarists headed out on the road or just down the street for band practice, The Guitarist's Almanac is the perfect take-along companion. It's compact, yet crammed with useful information, from alternative tunings to fret jobs, and from chord charts to guitar lore. Noted axe-wielders like Jeff Beck, Buddy Guy, Carlos Santana, and Pearl Jam's Stone Gossard offer inspiration, tips and anecdotes. Written by veteran music journalist Alan di Perna, The Guitarist's Almanac is lively, entertaining and practical. 80 pages, softbound book.
