The Guitar Chronicles - signed copy
£50.00
The Guitar Chronicles showcases a series of vintage and rare instruments with engaging stories; folk tales that carry with them a sense of social history and cultural identity. From beaten-up, barfly Telecasters thick with nicotine staining and battle-scars from dive bars across America to catalogue guitars modified with mailbox stickers by eager kids in the 50s, emulating the elaborate neck inlays of their country music heroes. The narrative charts the history of guitar through stories of the blue collar working musicians, front porch players and creative innovators of the time. It’s a love-letter to guitar told through a romantic lens.
"I love seeing these amazing guitars that are so life-worn, with all that mojo, through Eleanor's eyes and lens. Beautiful."
-JASON MOMOA
"Eleanor has a unique ability to tell stories through her photographs. You can almost see the original owner's entire career in music in a single photo."
