Tim Brookes, a commentator and essayist on National Public Radio, set our to answer this question after baggage handlers destroyed his guitar. Pairing up with a master artisan from the Green Mountains of Vermont, Brookes sees how a rare piece of cherrywood is hued, dovetailed, and worked on with saws, rasps, and files, and learns that a dream guitar is built, not bought.Brookes, Tim is the author of 'Guitar An American Life', published 2006 under ISBN 9780802142580 and ISBN 0802142583.
