Reviews
"Deke Dickerson... This guy is of an altogether 'nother breed. He coined the term for his particular case of severe OCD "Guitarchaeology." This man will track a guitar for literal years. He will fly to small towns on the basis of a rumor. He will pore over sales records from guitar manufacturers and retailers from decades ago, looking for a scrap of a clue, he will wait years for an owner to finally give in and sell. Okay, here's who Deke Dickerson is, encapsulated in just one of his dozens of amazing and thoroughly entertaining stories..." - HuffingtonPost.com, "Deke Dickerson's love for guitars and his genius for finding some of the rarest birds in the musical aviary is matched by his not-inconsiderable writing chops. The man knows how to tell a great story." --Jonathan Kellerman

- t***g (2438)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseExcellent price! Will shop again! Thank you so much!
- a***b (458)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseFive Star Seller!!! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 The book is definitely in good condition especially for being an old public library copy. The only flaws are one of the pages is torn and one song has a little bit of writing with a pencil on a couple of pages. I think that’s pretty minimal damage. Shipping was fast but I live fairly close to the company’s offices who I bought the book from so that might explain the swift delivery. A good eBay experience. Thank You.
