Hi John, I must say that Guitar Breaks looks like a fabulous book, and what a great idea to produce it with music as well as narrative. The inclusion of iconic songs from the 50’s can’t fail to enhance the overall power of the narrative, and is very important indeed to the concept. I really hope this idea comes off, so that you can break new ground, as it would be terrific to read the book and listen to the songs at the same time. Good luck!

John..
I heard about your book and it sounds like an awesome idea!
I hope I get a chance to hear it soon brother!
Let me know as soon as it’s available, I’ve told Jay DeMarcus from Rascal Flatts as well as Jason Scheff from Chicago who are both Fender Endorsees, and play their basses frequently!
Getting a lot of attention I’m my circles already!!
Take care Boss and good luck!

Having both read and now listened to Guitar Breaks by John Hamilton I’ve been incredibly entertained by it. It’s got a fantastic story arc and perfectly captures pivotal moments of musical history in the cleverest way possible. I can also really see it as either a film or a Netflix series as its beautiful strong storylines constantly weave and cross over each other. I’m certainly looking forwards to sending it to everyone I know!
