Introduced in 1954 as one of Gretsch's Guitars of the Future the White Falcon was an overwhelmingly impressive instrument. The influence of this spectacular new guitar spread to other models and guitar manufacturers. It was the dawn of a half-century of awe-inspiring guitars which are now favored by widely popular artists including Pete Townshend Tom Petty Alanis Morisette Sheryl Crow John Frusciante Bo Diddley and more. This book compiles the best of Gretsch's inventions over the past 50 years and tells the stories of their creation and the men who created them. Includes 100 photos! (8-1/2I x 11I 144 pages)
