The Story Of Paul Bigsby

Father Of The Modern Electric Solidbody Guitar

By Andy Babiuk
P.A. Bigsby was a renaissance man. Inventor of the popular Bigsby vibrato, he built the first modern solidbody electric guitar in 1948, predating and influencing Fender. His remarkable work and fascinating personality are the subjects of this beautifully photo-illustrated hardcover tribute: motorcycle design, the development of solidbody instruments and the pedal steel guitar, his unique guitar pickup, the legendary vibrato, and more. A must-have book for anyone with a passion for guitar design! 196 pages, with "Bigsby Tapes" audio CD.
