About this product

Product Information

(Book). For more than 30 years, Grit Laskin has been building guitars, and his striking inlay work places his instruments in a class all their own. He is credited with single-handedly taking the ages-old tradition of musical instrument inlay from its purely decorative roots into an art form, a means of expression. In his hands, shell, stone, legal ivory and metal emerge as the palette of a re-invented medium. A sumptuous, full-color-throughout, coffee-table quality tome, this is the first book to document the breadth of his work and the techniques he has devised. Grit Laskin is the first and only musical instrument maker to receive Canada's prestigious Saidye Bronfman Award for Excellence. The Museum of Civilization, Canada's equivalent to the Smithsonian, has four Laskin guitars in its permanent collection. Includes an essay on the history of inlay by Chuck Erickson. Photography by Brian Pickell. "(Grit's) work is more than adornment it's mind-blowingly interesting." Bob Taylor, Taylor Guitars

After purchased this vise and tracking number was given, this seller sends me a note asking for another $21 for shipping to PR because $75 is only for US. I checked again in the shipping section and there's not an advertisement showing this info, very bad attitude as a seller, I feel very disappointed for this lie, but thanks for nothing!!

  • Great book on intricate inlay work

    This book is excellent and I would recommend it to anyone interested in doing inlay work. This book is intended to show the spectacular possibilities and is not a comprehensive how-to-guide though it does give valuable information on materials and tools involved and with each work we are given details on the concept and design ideas that went into creating the work of art. Mr Laskin's instruments are very expensive and this may be as close as I will get to one. A visual feast... highly recommend!
