Million Dollar Les Paul Book Giveaway
Thursday, March 19, 2009

Grand Prize: Tony Bacon's Million Dollar Les Paul
Deadline: Apr 15, 2009
Retail Value: $20

Gibson Guitars teamed up with Jawbone Press offer you a chance to win this awesome book by one of the world's best-selling authors of books on guitars and guitar players.

Part travelogue across the landscape created by the legend itself, part quest for demystification, and part intricate documentation of this collectible instrument’s rise into the stratosphere, Million Dollar Les Paul — in the course of laying out its story — spends time with the Gibson craftsmen who made the instrument, the major artists who have recognized its brilliance, and the dealers and collectors who have fallen prey to its timeless allure.

The passages that resonate most for me, though, are those in which the great Les Paul players step right out of rock and blues history to tell us precisely why, when, and how they got hooked by the Burst.
