Description
'Masterpiece Guitars' is a phenomenal album of 17 guitar tracks played by two guitar legends - Steve Howe and Martin Taylor - on an astonishing array of 23 rare and, in some cases, priceless American guitars. The guitars, which range from the D'Angelico Teardrop to a Dyer Symphony Harp Guitar, are, collectively, worth over $6,000,000. Steve and Martin play an array of extraordinary guitars, some of the rarest and most valuable instruments representing the very best of the American guitar from the last 150 years. Many of them were recorded for the first time ever; some not heard on a recording for decades; recordings of the D'Angelico Teardrop or the D'Aquisto Solo simply didn't exist before this CD. One of the oldest guitars featured is a CF Martin which was made during the 1840s; the most spectacular looking is probably the Dyer Harp Symphony Guitar, with the Teardrop valued at over $1,000,000 alone. This is the guitar event of the year and will educate and entertain enthusiasts and music lovers everywhere.
