Guitars inspire cult-like devotion: an aficionado can tell you
precisely when and where their favorite instrument was made, the
wood it is made from, and that wood's unique effect on the
instrument's sound. In The Guitar, Chris Gibson and Andrew Warren
follow that fascination around the globe as they trace guitars all
the way back to the tree. The authors take us to guitar factories,
port cities, log booms, remote sawmills, Indigenous lands, and
distant rainforests, on a quest for behind-the-scenes stories and
insights into how guitars are made, where the much-cherished guitar
timbers ultimately come from, and the people and skills that craft
those timbers along the way. Gibson and Warren interview hundreds
of people to give us a first-hand account of the ins and outs of
production methods, timber milling, and forest custodianship in
diverse corners of the world, including the Pacific Northwest,
Madagascar, Spain, Brazil, Germany, Japan, China, Hawaii, and
Australia. They unlock surprising insights into longer arcs of
world history: on the human exploitation of nature, colonialism,
industrial capitalism, cultural tensions, and seismic upheavals.
But the authors also strike a hopeful note, offering a parable of
wider resonance-of the incredible but underappreciated skill and
care that goes into growing forests and felling trees, milling
timber, and making enchanting musical instruments, set against the
human tendency to reform our use (and abuse) of natural resources
only when it may be too late. The Guitar promises to resonate with
anyone who has ever fallen in love with a guitar.
