Just aired, and thought I'd make a post to remind me to share the link when it appears online for you all to watch.
Currently part one has just aired, which talks about its history on a grand scale, how it came to be and its evolution from other instruments. Really interesting viewing. Should be online in the next couple of days through the BBC iplayer (all legal, through there official site  ) and will post up the link when it appears.The second episode, airing next sunday, is all about the transformation of the guitar when it turned electric. Should be good For now, check out a few short interview clips from the BBC Guitar history website. Features some interviews with Gilmour, BB king and the Edge... http://www.bbc.co.uk/musictv/guitars/ UPDATE 3: Here's the third and final episode link guys. http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00f3...e_its_Personal/ This post has been edited by Ajmurrell: Oct 20 2008, 09:01 PM -------------------- GMC Travel Agent, at your service.

Part 2 of this series was on last night, here's a brief overview from the web site:
"As the guitar turns electric, music is changed for ever. The world's first electric guitar had nothing to do with jazz or blues, but Hawaiian-style music and was known as the 'frying pan'. Yentob continues his investigation from the blues of the Mississippi to the guitar wars of the 1950s, when the Fender Stratocaster and the Gibson Les Paul were battling for supremacy." http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00dz...the_Frying_Pan/ If anyones still interested
