This book recounts the story of all the electric steel guitars - or electric "Hawaiian" guitars, as they were called during most of their tenure - that were built by Gibson between 1935 & 1967. Hawaiian guitars were the most popular form of electric guitars until the 1950s, & they contributed to some crucial developments in pickups & amplification in addition to lending their voice to the earliest solid body electrics. Aesthetically, the early postwar instruments are also amongst the coolest.
