Biblioteca de la Guitarra y Cuerda Pulsada

The guitar is a relative newcomer to the genre of jazz music. Due to its
design, the guitar has tremendous potential for different sounds, textures, and
styles within the jazz idiom. However, it has always been slow to develop, and
never seems to be exactly on the cutting edge of jazz. Through the examination of
key players, their styles, and their personal history, an acceptable picture of the
development of the jazz guitar may be formed. This historical recount, while
incomplete, hopefully will help to increase appreciation for the fine art of jazz
guitar.
