The high-art original photography shows details never before imagined, like the scratch marks from the Gibson L-5 Maybelle Carter used for five decades, or the wear on the left-handed Competition Mustang Kurt Cobain played for the “Smells Like Teen Spirit” video. The Guitar Collection is presented in three editions; each edition features its own signed chromalin print from noted guitar photographer John Peden. This limited edition book is limited to 1,500 hand-numbered copies, making The Guitar Collection an unparalleled moment of music history.
