Kurzbeschreibung
The PRS Guitar Book details every facet of the wonderful electric guitars made by PRS, the Maryland-based company founded in 1985 by musician and guitar builder Paul Reed Smith. The paperback edition is updated to include all the latest information on the acclaimed Singlecut models, as well as the intriguing story of the Santana SE - the company's first venture into overseas manufacture. An inviting narrative describes the evolution of this internationally renowned guitar maker, while dynamic color photography spotlights outstanding PRS guitars such as the Signature, signed by Smith; the Dragon, sporting opulent shell inlays; the Swamp Ash Special and Rosewood Limited, using non-standard materials; and ultra-rare models from limited and custom runs. Other featured guitars include the latest acoustic-electrics, and the Santana models that celebrate the partnership between PRS guitars and their best-known player, Carlos Santana. A special section highlights the company's famed use of highly patterned maple woods, displaying the most stunning "flame-top" and "quilt-top" examples. This definitive book also provides an absorbing photo-essay on the making of a PRS guitar, plus specifications for identifying and dating PRS instruments. "The PRS Guitar Book is a must-have for any collector, PRS owner, or anyone who appreciates PRS guitars." -Guitar Digest "Masterful ... tons of gorgeous, full-color photos." -Guitar Player "This hefty volume of brilliantly colorful guitars made by Paul Reed Smith exemplifies the best and the brightest..." -Dirty Linen "A fitting tribute to a company which has, in a short time, come to symbolize a quality alternative to the 'big two' American electric guitar manufacturers." -Vintage Guitar

Format:Taschenbuch
Wer eine PRS sein eigen nennt oder vielleicht auch mit dem Kauf einer dieser Traumgitarren liebäugelt, für den ist dieses Buch ein tolles Nachschlagewerk und Bilderbuch, das aber zudem jede Menge interessanter Infos und Stories enthält. Auch ein Schlüssel zur Bestimmung des Baujahres einer PRS fehlt nicht. Die Fotografien sind erstklassig und jedem Gitarrenliebhaber wird beim Durchblättern warm ums Herz werden, z.B. beim Anblick einer doppelhalsigen Dragon, mit eingelegtem Drachen-Intarsien auf Korpus und über beide Fretboards -- Boah! Also, das Buch lohnt sich für alle, die wild auf Gitarren sind: Hier gibt's einige der schönsten der Welt zumindest schon mal zum Angucken!

A Great, Serious Book About Paul Reed Smith And His Guitars
29. Februar 2008
Format:Taschenbuch
THE PRS GUITAR BOOK is a great, serious book about the great guitar builder Paul Reed Smith, the company he founded, the wonderful guitars he and his company have built over the years, and the many artists who have played them. It's great that it's now in paperback, and was expanded after its first issue in 2000 to include newer models such as the Modern Eagle and the 513, the latter of which has five actual pickups and thirteen sounds. There is also a section on the Singlecut models and the lawsuit that Gibson filed against PRS concerning them. Finally, the book discusses where Paul Reed Smith is headed for as the first decade of the 21st Century draws to a close. Overall, this book is very nicely done and is a must-own for anyone even remotely interested in guitars.

Excellent review of PRS Guitars!
3. August 2010
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
PRS Guitars begins like any American success story. From humble beginnings of making his first guitar by any means necessary (including for college credits) Paul Reed Smith has built up his company from the ground up to the third largest manufacturer of guitars in the world. His guitars are works of art but they play spectacularly.
Burrluck scripted a well written history of PRS including historical facts, interviews with people who are as much part of the success as Mr. Smith himself, and the guitars, who are and should be the centerpiece. Each line of guitars were created for specific reasons and Burrluck weaves those expertly into the history. He details how Smith persuaded artists to buy his guitars and the innovations that helped launch PRS Guitars along the way including a patented tremolo that was thought impossible until Santana asked specifically for it...and Paul obliged after hard work.
For the history minded person, this is a great American business success story. For the guitarist, this is a great story about the evolution of PRS guitars but also a great picture book of the guitars made to 2007. For the PRS fanatic---this is a must-have book.
The narrative never leaves the reader weary and the pictures of the guitars help provide the reader visuals of the story details. It is a great quick read that feels like someone has narrated it to you in a story-like manner. Ok, it was quick if I didn't take a long time staring at the pictures.
My only complaint as of today...we need a revision since this takes the story to 2007! I'll be happy to help!
