## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Great Book
  

*by S***0 on Reviewed in the United States on January 21, 2013*

Like the one guy said, not a lot about Gibson but it covers them enough. Lets face it Fender has always dominated the Bass industry so this book covers it accurately in my mind. They cover from the incarnation and the breakthrough of the P bass up through the birth of active electronics to modern basses. Not much about a lot of modern basses like Ibanez or anything but pretty thorough historically from the 50's through the 90's pretty much. A very interesting read with lots of great photographs.

    Excellent book, was it supposed to be black and white?
  

*by L***T on Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2014*

This is a great book, well written and researched and contains a treasure trove of wonderful photos.  However, my copy of the book was printed on extremely thin, cheap copy paper and the pages were merely photocopied (as if it were a proof copy).  I am not sure if this was correct or intentional, but I was expecting a full-color book.  The photos are admittedly much less interesting and enjoyable when its printed at such low quality, but I still greatly enjoyed the writing and information.

### ⭐ 







  
  
    Truly bad print quality. Pages appear photocopied! Yes, it's really that bad.
  

*by R***E on Reviewed in the United States on November 25, 2013*

Maybe I'm mistaken, but I thought this book used to contain color illustrations. Regardless, the pictures of the basses and musicians are all in black and white and the print quality of this book is very poor. It honestly looks like the pages are photocopied - it's really that bad. I mean c'mon, this is a collector's book. Some of the pictures are so poor that you can see the pixels. In fact, the printing in last half of the book looks like the printer was running low on toner... the print gets light and blurry!I recommend not buying this book.
