Smithsonian Exhibit about Guitars

And ... to think how upset we all were when Bob Dylan "went electric ..."

Here's an interesting site for you about an exhibit of guitars at the Smithsonian ...

"This exhibit features instruments that illustrate how innovative makers and players combined the guitar with a pickup (sensor) and amplifier to create a new instrument and a new sound that profoundly changed popular music--blues, country, rhythm and blues, jazz, and rock and roll -- in the 20th century." -- from the website.
