Shortly before his death in 1995, Jimmy DAquisto - then, as now, considered
the greatest guitarmaker of all time - built a lightning blue archtop guitar,
the DAquisto Centura Deluxe, hailed as a masterpiece for its sensuous
lines and mythical blue color. That guitar inspired its owner, collector
Scott Chinery, to challenge twenty-two of the worlds finest luthiers to
create their own interpretation of the Blue Guitar. The result is perhaps
the greatest collection of archtop guitars ever made. Blue Guitar celebrates
the unique beauty of this unparalleled collection with gorgeous photographs
and interviews with the guitarmakers, many of whom have dedicated their
lives to finding the place where art, craft, and music converge.
