Johnny Marr的独特音色和风格是由吉他决定的，这本令人惊叹的摄影集展示了这位传奇吉他手的个人感悟和见解。

“吉他是我一生的执念......它是我的使命，有时甚至是我的生命线”——Johnny Marr

作为吉他手，Johnny Marr重新定义了一代人的音乐。他的琶音和和弦创新帮助史密斯乐队成为史上具影响力且重要的英国乐队之一。

《Marr的吉他》追溯了 Marr 从少年时代到参与邦德电影原声带制作的职业生涯，展示了 Marr 收藏的重要的电吉他和原声吉他，通过它们揭示了 Marr 标志性声音和演奏风格的演变过程。每把吉他都代表着一个关键时刻、一首特定的歌曲或一种特殊的声音，每把吉他都体现了马尔毕生激情的一个关键方面。

知名摄影师Pat Graham为每把吉他拍摄了完整的肖像，并辅以微距拍摄，突出了每把吉他独特的具体细节，而Johnny Marr本人也在随书附带的评论中揭示了这些吉他是在哪些曲目和哪些演出中演奏的。许多吉他都与Marr密切相关，如 Rickenbacker 330、Gibson ES-355 和 Johnny Marr Signature Fender Jaguar。有些是传给他的，包括Nile Rodgers的 Stratocaster、Bryan Ferry的 Roxy Music Hagstrom 和Bert Jansch的 Yamaha。还有一些吉他曾为 Marr 所有，但后来传给了下一代吉他英雄，包括 Noel Gallagher 在《Wonderwall》中使用的 Stratocaster，以及 Radiohead 的 Ed O'Brien 在《In Rainbows》中使用的 Gibson Les Paul Goldtop。

与吉他摄影和评论相辅相成的是录音室、后台和舞台的背景照片。它们共同构成了一部独特的现代音乐文化史，并通过Johnny Marr的经历和成就讲述了吉他演奏。

A stunning photographic presentation of the guitars that defined the distinctive sounds and style of Johnny Marr with personal reflections and insights from the legendary guitarist himself.

'Guitars have been the obsession of my life ... they've been a mission and sometimes a lifeline' - Johnny Marr

The guitarist's guitarist, Johnny Marr redefined music for a generation. His ringing arpeggios and chordal innovations helped elevate The Smiths to be one of the most influential and important British bands of all time.

Tracing Marr's career from his teenage years to his recent work on the Bond soundtrack, Marr's Guitars showcases the most significant of Marr's superb collection of electric and acoustic guitars, revealing through them the evolution of his iconic sound and style of playing. Each guitar is identified with a crucial moment, a specific song or a particular sound, and each embodies a key aspect of Marr's lifelong passion.

Renowned photographer Pat Graham presents each instrument as a full portrait, supported by micro shots highlighting the specific details that make each one unique, while Johnny Marr himself reveals in his accompanying commentary on what tracks and at which shows the guitars were played. Many of the guitars are closely associated with Marr, such as the Rickenbacker 330, the Gibson ES-355 and the Johnny Marr Signature Fender Jaguar. Some were passed down to him, including Nile Rodgers' Stratocaster, Bryan Ferry's Roxy Music Hagstrom and Bert Jansch's Yamaha. Others are guitars once owned by Marr that have since been passed on to the next generation of guitar heroes, including the Stratocaster used by Noel Gallagher on 'Wonderwall' and the Gibson Les Paul Goldtop used on In Rainbows by Radiohead's Ed O'Brien.

Punctuating the photography of the guitars and the accompanying commentary are contextual studio, backstage and onstage shots. Together, they make Marr's Guitars a unique cultural history of modern music and guitar playing told through the prism of Johnny Marr's experiences and achievements.
