1994 'Burst: 1958-'60 Sunburst Les Paul 1st Edition Gibson Electric Guitar Book

Burst: 1958-'60 Sunburst Les Paul
Scott, Jay; Pra, Vic Da
Published by Seventh String Press: New York 1994 1st Edition

" This highly regarded 1994 first edition offers a richly detailed exploration of one of the most revered electric guitars ever built—the 1958-1960 sunburst Gibson Les Paul. Jay Scott and Vic Da Pra combine deep historical research with the insights of collectors, musicians, and luthiers to chart the evolution of the model, its limited production numbers, and the nuances that distinguish each surviving example. The authors discuss the craftsmanship, finishes, hardware variations, and serial-number sequences that have made "Bursts" legendary, weaving in stories from the players who helped define their mystique.

Lavishly illustrated and meticulously compiled, the book serves both as a technical reference and a cultural history of the instrument's extraordinary rise in value and reputation. From the guitar's late-1950s commercial struggles to its rebirth under the hands of artists such as Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page, and Duane Allman, the narrative captures how the Burst became a benchmark in electric guitar tone and collectability. This volume will strongly appeal to vintage guitar enthusiasts, Gibson Les Paul collectors, and admirers of iconic rock-and-roll history."
