I notice that Amazon UK and Amazon.de (Germany) have also reduced the price significantly from the standard retail price.

Do you know Niamh "The Prog Nerd"? (Youtuber and Instagramer from the UK).
Also she has rated the book with 5 stars!  |

New feedback from a brazilian reader received on my Instagram:
"I read the book "The musical instruments of progressive rock" and would like to make a comment. I'll be 70 in June, I've heard every type of music possible in the world, and without a doubt my favorite is progressive rock. I read hundreds of magazines and books that deal with the subject, some very good, like the Brazilian "Poeirazine". But the best and most complete publication on the subject is certainly this book. Extremely detailed, clearly written and the photos are absolutely amazing. Highly recommended for anyone interested in this subject. Thank you Gerard Bassols for the very rich material and for the wonderful opportunity to be able to read such good material!"

Wow, the double-neck instrument is one of my favorites! Great photo of John McLaughlin with his late/great Double Rainbow! This is a recent photo of John with a PRS double neck!  |
