But today, rock music can be as technically complex as any Hollywood blockbuster. Rock Hardware uncovers how the instruments and technology of rock have evolved, giving new insight into the mechanics of rock music's most famous moments on stage and in the studio. The book explores the range of instrumental and technical choices, including acoustic guitars, electric guitars, basses, amps, drums and percussion, keyboards, electronic music, brass, woodwinds, live sound systems, and recording technology. An absorbing narrative and 200 striking color photos depict the design intricacies of classic and contemporary landmarks in rock's fascinating instrumental history. Rock Hardware gives today's musician an understanding of how to choose from the vast array of old and new instruments, and how to combine the tools and technology to create their own new milestones in rock history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Paul Trynka\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Backbeat Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/1996\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.37lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.13h x 8.66w x 0.55d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780879304287\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/1997 pg. 804\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/15\/1997 pg. 65\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Backbeat Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":40270612693107,"sku":"9.78E+12","price":26.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_f5ac45a0-3acd-458e-894f-99a1240501c4.jpg?v=1657807096","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/rock-hardware-9780879304287","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
