(Book). In 1982; Fender revived an old guitar-string name for its new line of Japanese-made electric guitars. Millions of guitars later; and celebrating its 30th anniversary; Squier is almost as important to the company as the main Fender brand. Guitar pundit Tony Bacon reveals the stories behind the original (and collectible) Japanese-made Squier Series models; the way that Fender has often been more adventurous and experimental with Squier; away from its protected main brand; and the famous musicians who have chosen to play Squier instruments; from Courtney Love and her Venus model to blink-182s Tom DeLonge and his one-pickup/one-control signature Stratocaster. Full of the luscious pictures; absorbing narrative; and collectors data that characterize Bacons best-selling instrument books; Squier Electrics is the only guide to one of the most popular guitar brands of recent times.

1 of 11 people found the following review helpful. A SCHOLARLY ASSESSMENT OF THREE ARTISTSBy CHESTER PAGEI am fond of the work of Marianne Moore and Joseph Cornell; but find such academic analyses of theirwork uninteresting. I prefer going to the work of these artists directly and not having every aspectsuper analysed. This work will appeal only to other academics.
