Guitarmaking: Tradition and Technology: A Complete Reference for the Design & Construction of the Steel-String Folk Guitar & the Classical Guitar

Hailed by Guitar Player magazine as 'perhaps the finest book on guitars ever produced,' and by Booklist as 'a Rolls Royce of construction guidebooks,' this impressive volume is the first book of its kind to describe in depth how both steel-string and classical guitars are actually designed and built. Over 450 photographs, drawings, and diagrams reveal in exquisite detail the hows, whys, and how-to's of the traditional craft of guitarmaking, all accompanied by fascinating historical and technical notes.

Classical Guitar Making: A Modern Approach to Traditional Design

A beautifully crafted book with hundreds of detailed color photos. You can' t build a guitar only from reading this book (or any other book), but this one will take you a long way in the right direction. I appreciated the detailed information on wood, tools and jigs.
