  • Future Collectable Alert
Format: Hardcover
I have to admit up front that I own two of these! The first is a used 1st printing and this one that I just purchased also New Condition is a 2nd printing with a slightly different sleeve . All of the contents are the same however. It is a great book, I have used it in appraisal work. It is good to have a good assortment of information if only to re or re-re-confirm a detail. I also took it on a recent guitar Safari and found a first year offering of a custom color Musicmaster. It was the second book to mention the fact so I made the purchase. The next one they will be pricing more accordingly. Overall I would recommend buying this book and if you can get your hands on a first printing buy it also, or two, of course. ... show more

Format: Hardcover
Anything you ever wanted to know about Fender guitars from the 40s till the 70s is in this book I know a lot of history happened since the 70’s but I grew up in the 70’s and believe me there’s a reason you’ll pay 40 grand for a 1958 Stratocaster if you’re a musician this is a piece of Americana by the way I had a 58 Stratocaster I bought in 1972 for for $125 at a pawn shop in fact I have had a lot of the guitars in this book but I digress if you want to know about the historical facts about Fender this book is for you it’s a great coffee table book also! I love this book ... show more

  • Don’t Look! Buy!!! This is the one if you only buy one!!!
Format: Hardcover
This re-release also happens to be the newest Fender guitar historical book. And me, being the owner of five other similar books, this is the best one! I feel that you are not to be disappointed, for example, he gathers the colors for all the model years and puts it all in one place. This book is a labor of love and a labor of passion !!! I would buy it again and I would buy more copies for the ones that I know love Fender guitar. He creates a lovely backdrop with his choice of words, he put you back in time like you were in the era leaving during the time of the Stratocasters early days! ... show more

  • Fender the golden age 1946-1970 Hardback!! Sick! 🎸
Format: Hardcover
2nd Edition nut better than the 1st Edition I think. If you are a true Fender buff then this is a super rad hardback book full of details on the original Fenders Guitars, Amps, Cab and more up to the year 1970. Fender made the first “real” guitar in 1946 and this takes you through the journey and ups/downs of the world of Fender. I enjoy the pictures of some of the worlds most famous guitars and amps!! A true Fender enthusiast’s Dream book! ... show more
