DESCRIPTION:
Beatles Gear is massive, with thick paper stock, glossy pages, and a sturdy cover. It really is the definitive volume on all the gear used by four young chaps from the UK who happened to change the world forever.'' --Harmony Central . Informative and entertaining, and with a impressive amount of photos of rare instruments (including shots of the actual instruments used by the band, many of which have never been published before), it's a visual delight as well. It's obvious that a tremendous amount of research went into this, and it couldn't have been done without contributions and input from people within the Beatles' organization.

There is much more information covering every aspects of the band's instrumentation. I won't include any spoilers, but simply say that there is enough new material to keep you satisfied.

It's not boring, as if you were reading an encyclopedia. Babiuk made the book to be enjoyable for even non-gearhead Beatle fans, while giving us gearhead musicians plenty of details. Don't hesitate to buy this new version even if you already read this first edition. This one if MUCH larger with plenty of new information and photos.. Outstanding Ultimate Edition! I have a couple other editions of this wonderful book. I highly recommend buying this new Ultimate Edition with a lot more information and photos.
