Synopsis
In Confessions of a Vintage Guitar Dealer, Norman Harris tells how he became the world's leading seller of vintage guitars. As founder and owner of the legendary store Norman's Rare Guitars, he has sold some of the finest fretted sting instruments to the biggest stars in the world, including George Harrison, Bob Dylan, Tom Petty, and many others. In 1970 Harris moved to Los Angeles in hopes of hitting the big time in music. His first plan was performing, but plan B was buying and selling guitars, and he had no idea how much opportunity for this there would be. Many groups came to LA also hoping to hit it big, but those who didn't might have to sell their instruments. This helped make early-1970s Los Angeles a haven for beautiful vintage guitars. At the same time, Hollywood was beginning to realize the value of time-correct instruments in film, and the recording industry recognized the high-quality sound vintage instruments produced. The value of these instruments has grown dramatically since the '70s, and the vintage guitar market has become an international phenomenon-with Norman Harris at the centre of it all. Filled with fascinating stories and insights into the entertainment business, Confessions of a Vintage Guitar Dealer is an intriguing memoir from a man who has spent a lifetime getting extraordinary instruments into the hands of extraordinary artists., In Confessions of a Vintage Guitar Dealer , Norman Harris tells how he became the world's leading seller of vintage guitars.

- o***u (1098)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseQuick shipping. Packaging was ok however the post office managed to break both of them in transit. They were not in original condition but were in larger chunks. The sellers were very responsive, easy to communicate with, and understanding. They resolved the situation fairly. I highly recommend the sellers. Good people! Wished we could hold the shipping companies responsible for breakage during shipping.
- o***7 (725)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseAs advertised, new, beautiful Hawaiian shirt. Shipped fast but packed in a flimsy bag. Luckily it arrived undamaged. The shirt is good value & quality. Would buy from this seller again, although $10+ shipping costs were a bit high for a plastic bag.
