The Complete Guide to the Gibson Mandolins is a definitive source of
information about the company that defined the modern mandolin. From the very
beginning when Orville H. Gibson built the first carved-top instruments in
the 19th Century to the instruments still being made by Gibson today, this
book is a complete guide to the vast array of instruments the company
produced in the mandolin family, including historical documentation, images,
illustrations, detailed descriptions, photos and rare examples of existing
instruments from sources around the world. In addition to all the information
on these incredible instruments, this book also reveals some of the secrets
behind many of the proprietary construction techniques used by Gibson
throughout the decades. Many years of research have culminated in instrument
histories that are well-documented, comprehensive and complete.
