Millions of guitars are sold each year in the U.S. and an estimated 72 million Americans play guitar. That means there’s a lot of gear out there that needs attention! Hal Leonard has released two new titles that will help guitarists get the most out of their investments.
How to Get Great Guitar Tones, by Stephen Davis, helps players to understand the sometimes overwhelming world of pedals, amps, speakers, cabinets, and everything else that can contribute to getting great tone in playing. The book is filled with pictures and diagrams to help players visually put together the options for building their dream rig. It also includes over 100 demonstration audio tracks that showcase the tones described in the book, mixing and matching different guitars with a variety of amps and effects. This book with online audio retails for $24.99.
Do-It-Yourself Guitar Setup & Maintenance helps guitar owners get started on doing their own maintenance. With over four hours of video instruction, author and luthier Denny Rauen provides real-life scenarios using a variety of guitars. Guitar owners will learn what tools they need for every job and how to replace strings, adjust truss rods, basic electronic modifications, and much more. This book with online video retails for $22.99.
