I am neither a guitarist or guitar collector but decided to pick up this book due to the positive reviews, my previous experience with Deke's music/writing and my general love of classic California country music. I'm not suprised about the wide spread on the reviews posted because (as many have mentioned) this isn't really a guitar book. Instead it a compliation of stories about notable guitar finds told through the lens of Deke's life with a heavy does of music history mixed in. Knowing Deke's leanings as a classic country/rockabilly freak, it should be obvious that most of these "notable guitars" aren't Strats....in fact, many of these guitars and musicians aren't very well known...unless you are a fan of Classic Californa Country and roots music in general...IF YOU ARE, I think you will find this book an extremely enjoyable read.its fun accessible and very easy on the eyes....the book itself is a beauty...it's sort of a mini coffee table book...it's the size of a normal trade hardcover, but there is no dust cover (the cover you see is printed directly on the binding) and it is CHOCK FULL of great pictures...it is perfect for just picking up and reading one chapter at a time...it has been my go to book for Sunday readings the past two weeks...so unless you are digital dominant, I wouldn't opt for the Kindle edition...PS: Volume 2 is coming out in a few weeks and I plan to pick that one up too!
Let's talk books. You know -- those bound paper stacks with words printed in ink? This is a gorgeous little book! The cover has the photos and artwork beautifully printed - no need for a dust jacket. The size is about 11 inches by 7 inches - a welcome and usefully holdable size compared to the normal coffee-table book sizes most guitar books gravitate toward. The paper is semi glossy and robust. Each page is lovingly adorned with a high quality rare photo or long forgotten ad copy or logo from guitars long ago, and the text flows around the graphics. It's a beautiful presentation and a wonderful way to mix a modest amount of graphic content with lots of text content. I wish more collector books were in this style and size.Ok, so the stories: There's scads of absorbing, exciting and interesting short stories, all true, about rare old guitars and their lucky discoverers. Dickerson has a simple, clear writing style that suits the subject matter and never distracts from the story. Tons of personality in these stories -- I love how the author gets into the personalities of the folks who had kept these rare guitars, often not knowing quite what they owned, GREAT Christmas gift for that guitarist in the family.
If you have even a mild case of G.A.S. (Guitar Acquisition Syndrome) or an interest in vintage guitars you will LOVE this book. I've long been a fan of Deke's music (and he's great in person too) so reading this book was like sitting down with a fellow guitar geek over a beer and swapping "the one that got away" stories. Like you would expect from any obsessed collector, Deke goes beyond the mere pursuit of rare guitars and gets into the history of the instruments and the people that created them. But this isn't a book of cold, hard facts. Deke tells the stories in an entertaining and sincere way.In the cold winter and hot summer months between local vintage guitar shows reading this book is a good way to scratch that rare guitar itch. Every serious fan of guitars knows exactly what I mean. If you read or subscribe to Vintage Guitar magazine you will love this book.PS: Strat In The Attic volume 2 is also available and is just as fun to read.
Deke whacks this book out of the park. For a non-fiction book on a very linear subject, his writing is stellar and his story telling is superb. Even if you don't care much for guitars or don't know anything about the subject, the book is engaging and has some great storytelling.Without spoiling the book, Deke tells the stories almost as though he is handing them down to you by word of mouth. However he is an excellent writer and the way he articulates his thought and story is absolutely top notch.Oh yes, if you like guitars, this book is ridiculously cool. It brings to light guitars that you might never have thought of or seen and discusses players and their reasoning behind picking esoteric brands of guitars (and does a great job discussing their builders as well). Yes, I know the above is a run-on sentence! Still, the book has all that and some well placed pictures as well.At the very least, this book will tell you some great stories. But even better, it will introduce you to music, instruments and people that shouldn't be forgotten in the sands of time and the ever changing markets of music. Worth every penny!
Deke is brilliant and underappreciated guitarist. I've met several collectors who don't recognize that so much of the thrill and beauty of these instruments is in the wonderful people that crafted or played them. Deke gets it, and you never get the impression that he's simply "collecting pelts" or chasing ego gratification. These are often stories of people, and Deke must be as big-hearted as he is talented. He comes by these treasures honestly, and fully recognizes their true value is bringing people happiness. The mark of that is the amount of people that he's befriended in his search.That said, especially if you've dreamed of cleaning out an attic or basement and finding a Johnny Smith or a great old Tele or Gretsch, this book will make your mouth water. It may even set you out on a search. There are still beds that haven't been looked under! Thanks Deke.
