Now this is a must see for all us guitar lovers! A ~~documentary~~ Rockumentary about the electric guitar. Very cool.

"Turn It Up!" is a feature-length celebration of the electric guitar. Hosted by Kevin Bacon, the film explores mankind's passion for the electric guitar, and its effect on artists, everyday players, pop culture, history, and even politics.

Turn it Up! is the STORY of the electric guitar, from the invention in the 1930s to its golden years, right through the phenomenon of the Guitar Hero video-game and the digital guitars of the future. But, it's also a series of guitar STORIES, where we'll meet all kinds of people from rock stars, to congressmen, CEOs, and teenage virtuosos, to try to understand their emotional connection to their guitars.

Featured players: Slash (VELVET REVOLVER, GUNS N' ROSES), Jerry Cantrell (ALICE IN CHAINS), Paul Stanley (KISS), Bruce Kulick (KISS, GRAND FUNK RAILROAD) and John 5 (ROB ZOMBIE, MARILYN MANSON).
