Available now on DVD, the documentary combines interviews and performance segments to chronicle how the Fender Stratocaster and the Gibson Les Paul have competed over the past half-century to be the dominant instrument in popular music. The program appeals to rock music fans, guitarists, vintage guitar collectors, and even guitar-related video gamers.

Solid Entertainment will be showcasing "Solidbodies, the 50 Year Guitar War" this week in Cannes, France during MIPCOM which is considered to be the largest global market conference for those producing and purchasing entertainment programming.

A trailer of the documentary can be viewed at the film's website, www.SolidbodiesTheMovie.com.

Encino, CA-based Solid Entertainment represents more than 300 documentary titles created by independent producers as well as network programs created for Discovery Channel, HBO, National Geographic Channel, and the Travel Channel.
