Summary: A homage to the Gibson L-5's
Review: A very informative book for lovers of jazz guitars, - or to be more eksact for Gibson jazzguitar freaks. I keep on looking in this little book for informations I didn't catch when I first read it from the start, keep looking at the wonderful collection of pictures of L-5's, old advertisements and pictures from catalogs.

This homage to the Gibson L-5 guitar is written with deep knowledge and love by Adrian Ingram, and I thank him for sharing it with the rest of us.

Summary: Good book, but...
Review: While I found the photos and facts to be worth the price of the book, steer clear of this one if you are sensitive to inattention to elements of clear writing. The author obviously has no sense of proper punctuation, which makes his often unclear writing style even harder to bear.
