A Guitar Odyssey: Wired For Sound

Guitars are more than well-crafted instruments. Musicians know each guitar holds songs that only they can coax from its strings. This connection is evident from modern-day guitar's earliest acoustic beginnings in Orville H. Gibson's workshop to Les Paul's revolutionary invention of "The Log" (the first solid body electric guitar). In A Guitar Odyssey: Wired For Sound, a gallery of guitar greats demonstrate musical innovations and unique styles. Meet the "Who's Who" of guitar playing and hear the enduring sounds they created, from early masters like Chet Atkins, Chuck Berry, B.B. King, The Everly Brothers, the Elvis Presley Trio, T-Bone Walker and John Lee Hooker, to recent rockers like The Eagles, The Doors, Slash, Peter Frampton, The Smashing Pumpkins, Yes, Tom Petty and Steve Winwood.
