From the mid-20th century, no other musical instrument developed faster or had a greater impact than the electric guitar. In Britain, many young lads became enthralled by the look and the sound, leading them to take up the guitar to entertain their peers. Several dozen were able to master the instrument sufficiently to gain national and international recognition, enjoying careers spanning decades which has resulted in a number being awarded Queen's honours.
British Guitarists 1952-1972: Electric Pioneers examines a number of musicians that were part of a first wave of new popular music in the second half of the 20th century. A focus is placed on the guitars, amplifiers and effects used by the artists.
Starting from their early days, the book looks at the evolution of the guitarist's equipment and how this has impacted on their music.
The guitarists featured are: Martin Barre, Syd Barrett, Jeff Beck, Ritchie Blackmore, Marc Bolan, Joe Brown, Eric Clapton, Dave 'Clem' Clempson, Dave Davies, Lonnie Donegan, Andy Fairweather Low, Peter Frampton, Robert Fripp, David Gilmour, Peter Green, George Harrison, Tony Hicks, Steve Howe, Tony Iommi, Brian Jones, Paul Kossoff, Albert Lee, Alvin Lee, John Lennon, Phil Manzanera, Hank Marvin, John McLaughlin, Tony McPhee, Micky Moody, Jimmy Page, Alan Parker, Mike Pender, Andy Powell, Keith Richards, Mick Ronson, Mick Taylor, Pete Townshend, Bert Weedon, Ronnie Wood.

Peter Tuffrey has enjoyed the sound of the electric guitar since the 1950s. He worked in the guitar, amplifier and effects industry between 2003 and 2010 where he became familiar with many different manufacturers in the UK, Europe and the US. He met many owners of companies, leading guitar players, guitar techs and guitar dealers. As a writer Peter Tuffrey has produced articles on a number of artists for local and regional newspapers. This is besides talking to other writers about guitars and amplifiers. All his experience has culminated in British Guitarists 1952 - 1972.
