BOOK SIGNING AND MINI-PERFORMANCE AT D.G. WILLS BOOKS, LA JOLLA

   

  

  

 

Craig joined editor, Dara Crockett, at D.G. Wills Books in La Jolla, California, to read from and sign Guitar  Player: The Inside Story. Craig was one of the guitar players and national artists who graced the cover of Guitar Player in the ’70s and ’80s and is also proud to be featured along with stellar artists such as George Benson, Joe Perry, Steve Vai, Johnny Winter, Lee Retinour, Pat Metheny, B.B. King and many others as part of this historic and insightfully entertaining new book about the first two decades of the most successful guitar magazine ever.

Craig happily played a song or two Live for the guests at D.G. Wills Books on his Carvin Craig Chaquico Signature Model guitar.

A BOOK SIGNING AT BLOOMSBURY BOOKS IN ASHLAND, OREGON

  

 

We really had a ter-RIFF-ic time at the very first booksigning at Bloomsbury Books in Ashland, Oregon! We were welcomed and made to feel at home by Susan and Greg and the gang. Thanks so much to them for hosting us at our own local, independent bookstore! And especially HUGE thank yous to everybody who came out to support the event on a rainy Oregon Monday evening.

We were told it was one of the best turnouts ever for a book signing there — if not THE best.

Craig played Live in-between readings and demonstrating how to manufacture a guitar pick from a recycled driver’s license (one of the things he was inspired to do as a youth from reading Guitar Player magazine!). On display during the evening, were some of Craig’s own rare, vintage issues of Guitar Player magazine dating from the ’60s to the ’80s.
