Beschreibung
Frank Zappa was an unremitting musical innovator and experimenter, always|looking for ways to exploit the latest advances in technology. His working|life coincided with the explosive development of music technology that ran|from the 1960s through the following three decades. Without such inventions|as the Marshall amplifier, the Gibson SG, the wah-wah pedal, and the|Synclavier - much of it modified to his requirements and used in ways for|which they had never been designed - Zappa's air sculptures, as his music has|been described, would have had a significantly different shape and texture.|Lavishly illustrated - including over 180 unique photographs of Frank Zappa's|guitars andequipment taken by the author at his UMRK studio in LA and|featuring a foreword by Dweezil Zappa - Zappa's Gear offers an unprecedented|inside look at the machinery behind the legendary music. In addition to a|detailed presentation of the equipment, Zappa's Gear also introduces some of|the pioneering inventors, engineers, and entrepreneurs without whom the|instruments would not exist. Zappa's Gear is an official Frank Zappa book|produced and written with the full cooperation and endorsement of Gail Zappa|and the Zappa Family Trust.
