Description: Guitar Shop is the sixth studio album by virtuoso guitarist Jeff Beck, released in October 1989 after a four-year break from making music. This was Beck's first album to showcase his fingerstyle play, leaving his more familiar plectrum playing style. Guitar Shop reached No. 49 on the U.S. charts and won Best Rock Instrumental Performance in 1990, this being Beck's second album to win that award. In a further move from his previous jazz fusion stylings, Beck adopts a more straightforward instrumental rock approach on this album, save for two tracks ("Guitar Shop" and "Day in the House") on which quirky spoken vocals are included.
