## Description

How to Make Your Electric Guitar Play Great!, Second Edition : Dan Erlewine: desertcart.co.uk: Books

Review: The 'Set up Bible'. - For guitarists who actually want to know how their guitars work this is invaluable. One has to have some knowledge of the componant parts and not be afraid of having a go, it even covers the guitar tech's nemisis, the Floyd Rose tremolo system! If you are not confident of your ability to tackle, what can be, quite delicate areas it still makes a great bed time read. Highly recommended.
Review: Dan Erlewine, the world leader in guitar setup, maintenance and repair. - Dan Erlewine is undoubtably a world leader in guitar setup, maintenance and repair. In addition to being a treasure trove of guitar knowledge, he has a writing/teaching style that is simple, straight forward yet absolutely comprehensive. I have read similar books by other authors and none of them come remotely close to this one. If you are interested in guitar setup, maintenance and repair, or simply want to make your own guitar play great, then don't bother with any books or videos unless Dan Erlewine is the author.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great resource but photos could have been in colour.
*by G***R on 17 February 2019*

This is a very informative book, written by someone who is clearly passionate and knowledgeable about guitars. I have learnt lots from reading this text. I gave the review 4 stars not five because the front and back cover are in colour making me believe that the contents were colour however, all the photos inside are black and white. Im sure that reproduction costs were cut by taking this decision but colour photographs would have been better in my humble opinion. Also the text refers quite alot to photo 6.2 or photo 7.1 for example but the photographs dont have any numbers on them so whilst mainly obvious, some photos are hard to match with the text. Overall a great book and recommended for its technical content.
