Whether it's the technology- the physics and electrical engineering behind how a vibrating string can be transmitted into amplified sound..., or all the ways that sound can be altered and tailored to one's desire..., not to mention how fast that happens, down to the most utterly ridiculous Shawn Lane shred-fest...
The building of the instrument- the various woods, finishes, types of components..., the hobbiest/DIY side of that process as well..., your imagination is the limit...
The culture, the rock stars it has produced, the songs we have come to know and love (and play at GC
)
The changes & innovations that have happened in certain hands, from EVH to Steve Vai...
The many revered virtuosos it has spawned, from the likes of an utterly confident Swede who created a whole new genre by blending classical with more modern sounds, to young guys with neck tattoos who have taken it to unimaginative levels, to guys who can make it sound like 2 or more instruments at the same time...
What else can be added? I'm sure there's many other aspects I haven't mentioned.
