This is not a step-by-step manual for making a guitar, but a highly technical manual that applies basic physics and engineering concepts to instrument making. Each topic is accompanied by relevant graphs and equations. The author presents experimental setups in detail, so that a luthier with a few simple materials, a home computer, and a knowledge of math can duplicate and extend the studies.
Over 200 pages, softcover; spiral bound for convenience in your workshop.
The book also includes a CD-ROM containing spreadsheets for data analysis, and color photos of experimental setups.
