The Musical Instrument Collector by J. Robert Willcutt and Kenneth Ball

"an informative, yet entertaining collection of interviews with notable collectors and repairmen, among them, George Gruhn, the Mandolin Brothers, and Mugwumps Magazine publisher Mike Holmes. The primary focus is on the art of collecting guitars and banjos, even though other instruments such as violins and basses are mentioned. The 121-page compilation is a good cross-section of what collecting is all about and is chock-full of interesting anecdotes and opinions ."-Guitar Player Magazine. Forward By Joe Bonamassa
