Walter Carter Talks about The Gibson Electric Guitar Book
You would be hard pressed to find someone more qualified to tell the Gibson electric guitar story than Walter Carter. The author of several well known and respected books about guitars, Carter has been a keen Gibson observer for over 20 years from a unique perspective – as both a company insider and an outside chronicler of the Gibson story. The Gibson Electric Guitar Book (Backbeat Books) succinctly recounts the Gibson saga from the company’s beginning through today. While Carter’s previous 308-page book on Gibson, Gibson Guitars: 100 Years of an American Icon, is a must-have reference and enjoyable read, the new 160-page book condenses the Gibson story down to 60 pages of text without sacrificing important detail or behind-the-scenes color.
