CLAPTON'S GUITAR: WATCHING WAYNE HENDERSON BUILD THE PERFECT INSTRUMENT by Allen St. John: A mesmerizing journey into the heart of high-end guitar-making through the quirky character of Wayne Henderson, a musician and craftsman who builds his guitars by hand, literally by putting penknife to wood and carving away "everything that isn't a guitar." There is a waiting list 10 years long for his guitars. This absorbing account follows, step-by-step, the incredible sculpting of Clapton's favored guitar and along the way readers get a whirlwind tour of what might be called "Six String Nation," where fine instruments are made, played, and treasured in modern America. 277 pp.
