The Fender Telecaster: The Life and Times of the Electric Guitar That Changed the World

I've given this 5 stars but it really does depend on what you want from yet another Telecaster book. I love it, Douchoissier it isn't, the magnificent Black Guard guitar porn book it isn't either. Its definately a lot better than some of the other telecaster histories out there (mentioning none in particular). It has errors, both technical and grammatical - could really have done with a good critical proof reader. Technical and date errors appear to be those that are repeated often and as such I would question the source material again. Urban myths become truth if repeated often enough? The book is worth it for the pictures alone, many I havn't seen before and the format is great with some not so obvious featured artists getting a look in for a change. For a Tele buff its another great book for the collection, if you know your Tele's its a worthy addition. I can understand how the casual reader or those expecting something new would be disapointed. As I say I love it, but then again I am a total Tele nut.

A superb large thick book and was an excellent price. Full of information and lots and lots of great photos of wonderful Telecaster guitars and famous owners/players through the years since its first invention! This book will give many hours of interesting reading! Highy recommended!

Nicely-produced book with some excellent photos and text. One or two minor typos and only peripheral mention of the great and influential English player Albert Lee, who should most certainly have had a section to himself. But apart from that unforgiveable omission the book's overall a pretty good buy all the same.

Bought for my Telecaster-mad dad, he absolutely loves it. Plenty of information and pictures, covering the history of the guitar and notable people who have played them. A very well-presented book, makes a great gift!

I have a LOT of books about Fender and Gibson guitars and this is one of the most interesting to read. Regardless of the errors mentioned in other reviews it is presented beautifully, is made of quality materials and has superb illustrations. It's more of an entertaining magazine like excursion through the history of the guitar than a definitive 'bible' but it does what it does REALLY well. Recommended for anyone looking for a well illustrated and interesting book on the subject.

This is a brilliant read for anyone interested in the history of the telecaster. Photographs are great as is the text covering the the instrument. Highly recommended.

The images from this book are first class some very useful information.If you have not purchased this I would get one I brought this from Speedy Hen as the price was right for me.

There are lots of books out there about the Fender Telecaster, lots of them are very good and informative, this one is no exception, well presented, great pictures and informative text.

Fantastic info and pics.

El libro me llego rayado.... Aunque lo devolvi., tuve un momento para ojearlo. Parecía un refrito. Admito que tenia buenas y numerosas fotos. Hay otros libros mejores. Su libro de la les paul esta mejor.

Sehr informativ, gute Bilder und Hintergrundinfo. Leider gibt es von dieser Art kaum deutsche Ausgaben. Ein wahres Meisterwerk in der Entwicklung der E-Gitarre.

arrivato nuovo e perfetto ad un giusto presso. Ottimo
