I got a really cool discount book yesterday, Beatles Gear by Andy Babiuk. It details every guitar, amplifier, drum, keyboard, etc. used by the Beatles. Utterly useless, but fascinating. Ever wonder what kind of guitars they used when they were a jerkwater skiffle group called the Quarrymen? No? Well, it's in here. Ridiculous detail. It even tells stories about what happened to some of the actual instruments. I've been drooling over the photos of vintage Rickenbackers, Gretches, Fenders, Vox AC30 amps, etc. Meanwhile my own thirty year old Rickenbacker rests unplayed in its case in my closet. My cheap Fender amp was pawned years ago and was never replaced.
