Foreword by Steve Miller
Introduction by C.F.
Martin IV.
Martin
guitars are
internationally revered,
collected and played by
performers, singers,
songwriters and by
legions of avid
collectors and
enthusiasts. This book
features more than a
hundred of Martin's most
desirable guitars,
including instruments
belonging to Bob Dylan,
Willie Nelson, Joan Baez,
Sting and Eric Clapton.
Dick Boak
enthusiastically outlines
his experiences as
liaison in these
collaborations. We also
get a sneak preview of
Martin's millionth
instrument, due in 2004.
Dick Boak is the head of
artist relations and
publicity at C.F. Martin
& Co., collaborating
with artists in the
design of their Limited
Edition and Signature
Models. A prolific
artist, luthier and
musician in his own
right, he is a founder of
the Association of
Stringed Instrument
Artisans, and has
organized numerous
national
instrument-making
symposiums.
