As an amateur guitar player, I found this documentary fascinating. Great history of the guitar, and interviews with numerous players both famous and not. I really enjoyed hearing the non-professionals relating why they still loved to pick up their guitars and play, knowing full well they would never be on stage. Two downsides to my mind were virtually no mention of surf guitar or the Rickenbacker 12-string. And this doc was about the guitars, so nothing about the amps that make the electric guitar happen. The best came at the end, listening to guitarists all give their views on the word "tone". I came away agreeing that tone is what all players are seeking.
