vocalsYears active1960–1995Labels,Associated acts, Hart Valley Drifters, Garcia & Grisman,WebsiteJerome John 'Jerry' Garcia (August 1, 1942 – August 9, 1995) was an American singer-songwriter and guitarist, best known for his work as the lead guitarist and as a vocalist with the band the, which came to prominence during the counterculture of the 1960s. Although he disavowed the role, Garcia was viewed by many as the leader or 'spokesman' of the group. As one of its founders, Garcia performed with the Grateful Dead for their entire 30-year career (1965–1995). Garcia also founded and participated in a variety of side projects, including the Saunders–Garcia Band (with longtime friend ), the, the Garcia/ acoustic duo, and (which Garcia co-founded with and ). He also released several solo albums, and contributed to a number of albums by other artists over the years as a.

He was well known for his distinctive guitar playing, and was ranked 13th in 's '100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time' cover story in 2003. In the 2015 version of the list he was ranked at #46.Garcia was also renowned for his musical and technical ability, particularly his ability to play a variety of instruments, and his ability to sustain long improvisations with the Grateful Dead. Garcia believed that improvisation took stress away from his playing and allowed him to make spur of the moment decisions that he would not have made intentionally. In an interview with Rolling Stone, Garcia noted that 'my own preferences are for improvisation, for making it up as I go along.

The idea of picking, of eliminating possibilities by deciding, that's difficult for me'.Later in life, Garcia struggled with diabetes, and in 1986 went into a that nearly cost him his life. Although his overall health improved somewhat after that, he continued to struggle with obesity, smoking, and longstanding heroin and cocaine addictions. He was staying in a California facility when he died of a heart attack on August 9, 1995 at the age of 53. The corner of, center of the San Francisco neighborhood where the Grateful Dead shared a house at 710 Ashbury from fall 1966 to spring 1968.Garcia stole his mother's car in 1960, and as punishment he was forced to join the. He received basic training at.

After training, he was transferred to Fort Winfield Scott in the. Garcia spent most of his time in the army at his leisure, missing roll call and accruing many counts of being. As a result, Garcia was given a on December 14, 1960.In January 1961, Garcia drove down to to see Laird Grant, an old friend from middle school. He had bought a 1950 Cadillac sedan from a cook in the army, which barely made it to Grant's residence before it broke down.

Garcia spent the next few weeks sleeping where friends would allow, eventually using his car as a home. Through Grant, Garcia met Dave McQueen in February, who, after hearing Garcia perform some blues music, introduced him to local people and to the Chateau, a rooming house located near which was then a popular hangout.On February 20, 1961, Garcia got into a car with Paul Speeglea sixteen-year-old artist and acquaintance of Garcia; Lee Adams, the house manager of the Chateau and driver of the car; and Alan Trist, a companion of theirs. After speeding past the Palo Alto Veterans Hospital, the car encountered a curve and, traveling around 90 miles per hour (140 km/h), collided with the guard rail, sending the car rolling turbulently. Garcia was hurled through the windshield of the car into a nearby field with such force he was literally thrown out of his shoes and would later be unable to recall the ejection.

Lee Adams, the driver, and Alan Trist, who was seated in the back, were thrown from the car as well, suffering from abdominal injuries and a spine fracture, respectively. Garcia escaped with a broken collarbone, while Speegle, still in the car, was fatally injured.The accident served as an awakening for Garcia, who later commented: 'That's where my life began. Before then I was always living at less than capacity. I was idling. That was the slingshot for the rest of my life. It was like a second chance.

Then I got serious'. It was at this time that Garcia began to realize that he needed to begin playing the guitar in earnest—a move which meant giving up his love of drawing and painting.In April 1961, Garcia first met, who would become a long-time friend of and lyricist for the, collaborating principally with Garcia. The two involved themselves in the South Bay and San Francisco art and music scenes, sometimes playing at Menlo Park's. Garcia performed his first concert with Hunter, each earning five dollars. Garcia and Hunter also played in bands (the Wildwood Boys and the Hart Valley Drifters) with, who would later play with Garcia in the New Riders of the Purple Sage and contribute to several Grateful Dead album songs.In 1962, Garcia met, the eventual bassist of the Grateful Dead, during a party in Menlo Park's bohemian Perry Lane neighborhood (where author lived). Lesh would later write in his autobiography that Garcia reminded him of pictures he had seen of the composer, with his 'dark, curly hair, goatee, Impressionist eyes'.

While attending another party in Palo Alto, Lesh approached Garcia to suggest they record Garcia on Lesh's tape recorder and produce a radio show for the progressive, community-supported Berkeley radio station. Using an old tape recorder, they recorded ' and ', among several other tunes.

The recordings became a central feature of a 90-minute KPFA special broadcast, 'The Long Black Veil and Other Ballads: An Evening with Jerry Garcia'. The link between KPFA and the Grateful Dead continues to this day, having included many fundraisers, interviews, live concert broadcasts, taped band performances and all-day or all-weekend 'Dead-only' marathons. Garcia soon began playing and teaching. One of Garcia's students was Bob Matthews, who later engineered many of the Grateful Dead's albums. Matthews attended and was friends with, and on New Year's Eve 1963, he introduced Weir and Garcia.Between 1962 and 1964, Garcia sang and performed mainly bluegrass,.

One of the bands Garcia performed with was the Sleepy Hollow Hog Stompers, a bluegrass act. The group consisted of Garcia on guitar, banjo, vocals, and harmonica, Marshall Leicester on banjo, guitar, and vocals, and Dick Arnold on fiddle and vocals. Soon after this, Garcia, Weir, and several of their friends formed a called Mother McCree's Uptown Jug Champions.

Around this time, the psychedelic drug was gaining popularity. Garcia first began using LSD in 1964; later, when asked how it changed his life, he remarked: 'Well, it changed everything. the effect was that it freed me because I suddenly realized that my little attempt at having a straight life and doing that was really a fiction and just wasn't going to work out. Luckily I wasn't far enough into it for it to be shattering or anything; it was like a realization that just made me feel immensely relieved.' In 1965, Mother McCree's Uptown Jug Champions evolved into the Warlocks, with the addition of Phil Lesh on bass guitar and on. However, the band discovered that another group (which would later become the ) had recently selected the same name.

In response, Garcia came up with 'Grateful Dead' by opening a dictionary to an entry for '. The definition for 'Grateful dead' was 'a dead person, or his angel, showing gratitude to someone who, as an act of charity, arranged their burial'. The band's first reaction was disapproval. Garcia later explained the group's reaction: 'I didn't like it really, I just found it to be really powerful. Bob Weir didn't like it, Bill Kreutzmann didn't like it and nobody really wanted to hear about it.' Despite their dislike of the name, it quickly spread by word of mouth, and soon became their official title.Career with the Grateful Dead. Jerry Garcia in 1969Garcia served as lead guitarist, as well as one of the principal vocalists and songwriters of the Grateful Dead for its entire career.

Garcia composed such songs as ', 'Franklin's Tower', and ', among many others. Robert Hunter, an ardent collaborator with the band, wrote the lyrics to all but a few of Garcia's songs.Garcia was well-noted for his 'soulful extended guitar improvisations'which would frequently feature interplay between him and his fellow band members. His fame, as well as the band's, arguably rested on their ability to never play a song the same way twice. Often, Garcia would take cues from rhythm guitarist Bob Weir, remarking that 'there are some. kinds of ideas that would really throw me if I had to create a harmonic bridge between all the things going on rhythmically with two drums and Phil Lesh's innovative bass playing. Weir's ability to solve that sort of problem is extraordinary. Harmonically, I take a lot of my solo cues from Bob.'

Garcia in 1978, at the Veterans Memorial ColiseumWhen asked to describe his approach to soloing, Garcia commented: 'It keeps on changing. I still basically revolve around the melody and the way it's broken up into phrases as I perceive them. With most solos, I tend to play something that phrases the way the melody does; my phrases may be more dense or have different value, but they'll occur in the same places in the song.' Garcia and the band toured almost constantly from their formation in 1965 until Garcia's death in 1995.

Periodically, there were breaks due to exhaustion or health problems, often due to Garcia's drug use. During their three-decade span, the Grateful Dead played 2,314 shows. Garcia and Mickey Hart in 1987 at Red Rocks AmphitheatreGarcia's guitar-playing was eclectic. He melded elements from the various kinds of music that influenced him. Echoes of bluegrass playing (such as and ) could be heard. There was also early (like, and Chuck Berry), contemporary ( and ), ( and ), and ( and ) to be heard in Garcia's style.

Don Rich was the sparkling country guitar player in 's ' band of the 1960s, but besides Rich's style, both Garcia's playing (on Grateful Dead records and others) and his standard electric guitar work, were influenced by another of Owens's Buckaroos of that time, pedal steel player. And as an improvisational soloist, John Coltrane was one of his greatest personal and musical influences.Garcia later described his playing style as having 'descended from barroom rock and roll, country guitar. Just 'cause that's where all my stuff comes from. It's like that blues instrumental stuff that was happening in the late Fifties and early Sixties, like Freddie King.'

Garcia's style could vary with the song being played and the instrument he was using, but his playing had a number of so-called 'signatures'. Among these were lead lines based on rhythmic triplets (examples include the songs 'Good Morning Little School Girl', 'New Speedway Boogie', 'Brokedown Palace', 'Deal', 'Loser', ', 'That's It for the Other One', 'U.S. Blues', ', and 'Don't Ease Me In').Side projects In addition to the Grateful Dead, Garcia had numerous side projects, the most notable being the. He was also involved with various acoustic projects such as and other bluegrass bands, including collaborations with noted bluegrass mandolinist. The documentary film, co-produced by Gillian Grisman and former NBC producer Pamela Hamilton chronicles the deep, long-term friendship between Garcia and Grisman.

When Garcia and Grisman released Not For Kids Only, Hamilton produced their interview and concert for NBC. After several years of producing stories on the Grateful Dead and band members' side projects, Hamilton interviewed Bob Weir for a feature on Garcia's death marking the end of an era.Other groups of which Garcia was a member at one time or another include the Black Mountain Boys, and the. Garcia was also a fan of jazz artists and: he played with jazz keyboardists and for many years in various groups and jam sessions, and he appeared on saxophonist 's 1988 album,. His collaboration with Merl Saunders and on the world music album Blues From the Rainforest launched the.Garcia also spent a lot of time in the recording studio helping out fellow musician friends in session work, often adding guitar, vocals, pedal steel, sometimes banjo and piano and even producing.

He played on over 50 studio albums, the styles of which were eclectic and varied, including bluegrass, rock, folk, blues, country, jazz, electronic music, gospel, funk, and reggae. Artists who sought Garcia's help included the likes of (most notably, Garcia being listed as their 'spiritual advisor'). Garcia himself recalled in a mid-1967 interview that he'd played the high lead on 'Today,' played on 'Plastic Fantastic Lover' and 'Comin' Back to Me' on that album. Others include, Robert Hunter ( Liberty, on Relix Records), Ornette Coleman, and many more. In 1995 Garcia played on three tracks for the CD by guitarist, making it his last studio collaboration.Throughout the early 1970s, Garcia, Lesh, Grateful Dead drummer, and collaborated intermittently with -educated composer and biologist on several projects in the realm of early; these include the album (released by the Ned Lagin on the subsidiary) and L, an unfinished dance work composed by Ned Lagin. In 1970, Garcia participated in the soundtrack for the film.Garcia also played pedal steel guitar for fellow-San Francisco musicians from their initial dates in 1969 to October 1971, when increased commitments with the Dead forced him to opt out of the group.

He appears as a band member on their debut album, and produced Home, Home on the Road, a 1974 live album by the band. He also contributed pedal steel guitar to the enduring hit 'Teach Your Children'. Garcia also played steel guitar licks on 's 1970 album. Despite considering himself a novice on the pedal steel, Garcia routinely ranked high in player polls. After a long lapse from playing the pedal steel, he played it once more during several of the Dead's concerts with Bob Dylan in the summer of 1987.In 1988, Garcia agreed to perform at several major benefits including the 'Soviet American Peace Walk' concert at the Band Shell, in Golden Gate Park, San Francisco, that drew 25,000 people. He was asked to play by longtime friend and fellow musician, Pete Sears, who played piano with all the bands that day, and also procured all the other musicians.

Garcia, Mickey Hart and Steve Parish played the show, then were given a police escort to a Grateful Dead show across the bay later that night. Garcia also played with and Pete Sears at a benefit given for Vietnam Veteran and peace activist, who lost both legs below the knee when he attempted to block a train carrying weapons to military dictatorships in El Salvador.Having previously studied at the San Francisco Art Institute as a teenager, Garcia embarked on a second career in the visual arts in the late 1980s. He created a number of drawings,. Garcia's artistic endeavors were represented by the Weir Gallery in from 1989 to 1996.

During this period, Roberta Weir (unrelated to Garcia's bandmate Bob Weir) provided Garcia with new art techniques to use, sponsored his first solo show in 1990, and prepared blank etching plates for him to draw on. These would then be processed and printed by gallery staff and brought back to Garcia for approval and signature, usually with a passing of stacks of paper backstage at a Dead show. His annual shows at the Weir Gallery garnered much attention, leading to further shows in New York and other cities. Garcia was an early adopter of media; his artistic style was as varied as his musical output, and he carried small notebooks for pen and ink sketches wherever he toured. Roberta Weir continues to maintain an archive of the artwork of Jerry Garcia.

Perhaps the most widely seen pieces of Jerry Garcia's art are the many editions of men's neckties produced by Stonehenge Ltd. Some began as etchings, other designs came from his drawings, paintings, and digital art. Years after Garcia's death, his estate granted the license to Mulberry Street which resulted in a lawsuit and settlement with the original manufacturer, and new styles and designs continue to be produced and sold.Personal life Garcia met his first wife, Sara Ruppenthal, in 1963. She was working at the coffee house in the back of Kepler's Books, where Garcia, Hunter, and Nelson regularly performed.

They married on April 23, 1963, and on December 8 of that year their daughter Heather was born., a also known as 'Mountain Girl' or 'M.G.,' had a daughter, Sunshine, with Ken Kesey. Mountain Girl married another Prankster, George Walker, but they soon separated. She and Sunshine then moved into 710 Ashbury with Garcia in late 1966 where they would ultimately live together until 1975. In 1967, Sara and Jerry officially divorced after a long separation.

While raising Sunshine with Garcia, Adams gave birth to Garcia's second and third daughters, Annabelle Walker Garcia (February 2, 1970) and Theresa Adams 'Trixie' Garcia (September 21, 1974). Adams and Walker eventually divorced in 1978. During August 1970, Garcia's mother Ruth was involved in a car crash near in San Francisco. Garcia, who was recording the album at the time, often left the sessions to visit his mother with his brother Clifford. She died on September 28, 1970.In the midst of a March 1973 Grateful Dead engagement at the near New York City, Garcia met Deborah Koons, an aspiring filmmaker from a wealthy -based family who would much later marry him and become his widow.After a brief correspondence, he began his relationship with her in mid-1974. This gradually strained his relationship with Adams and culminated in Garcia leaving Adams for Koons in late 1975. The end of his relationship with Koons in 1977 precipitated a brief reconciliation with Adams, including the reestablishment of their household.

However, she did not agree with the guitarist's persistent use of narcotics and moved with the children to the area, living near Kesey, in 1978.Garcia had an affair with Amy Moore. She was a -born member of the extended 'Grateful Dead family', and the mistress of Texas oil heir Roy Cullen. Their affiar lasted circa 1980–1981, and inspired the Garcia-Hunter song 'Run for the Roses.' Adams and Garcia were married on December 31, 1981, largely as a result of mutual tax exigencies. Despite the legal codification of their union, she remained in Oregon, while Garcia continued to live near the Grateful Dead's offices in. Garcia lived with a variety of housemates, including band publicist, and Jerry Garcia Band manager,. Scully was dismissed by the group in 1984 for enabling Garcia's addictions, and for allegedly embezzling the bands profits.

Another housemate was Nora Sage, a housekeeper, and law student. Sage served as Garcia's platonic companion at the nadir of his opiate addiction. She later became his art representative.After briefly reuniting following his diabetic coma, Garcia and Adams officially divorced in 1994. Phil Lesh has subsequently stated that he rarely saw Adams on any of the band tours.

In a 1991 Rolling Stone interview, Garcia stated that 'we haven't really lived together since the Seventies'.During the autumn of 1978, Garcia developed a friendship with student Manasha Matheson, an artist and music enthusiast. They remained friends over the following nine years before initiating a romantic relationship in on the Grateful Dead's spring 1987 tour. On August 17, 1990, Jerry and Manasha married at their home in a spiritual ceremony free of legal convention. Jerry and Manasha became parents with the birth of their daughter, Keelin Noel Garcia, on December 20, 1987.

In 1991, Garcia expressed his delight in finding the time to 'actually be a father' to Keelin in contrast to his past relationships with his children. A year later, Garcia dedicated his first art book, Paintings, Drawings and Sketches, 'For Manasha, with love, Jerry.'

In January 1993, Barbara 'Brigid' Meier, a former girlfriend from the early 1960s, reentered Garcia's life. According to Meier, he had considered her to be the 'love of his life' and proposed to her during a Hawaiian vacation shortly after their relationship recommenced.The affair with Meier marked the breakup of Jerry's family life with Manasha and Keelin.

However, Garcia ended the affair with Meier forty-five days later in Chicago while on tour with the Grateful Dead after she confronted him about his drug use. Shortly thereafter, Garcia renewed his acquaintance with Deborah Koons in the spring of 1993.

They married on February 14, 1994, in, California. Garcia and Koons were married at the time of his death.Garcia's 'love of his life' sentiment was not reserved for one lover.

Garcia expressed the same feelings to several other women in his life. At Garcia's 1995 funeral, Koons declared that she was 'the love of his life' while paying her final respects, whereupon Meier and Ruppenthal, who were both in attendance, simultaneously exclaimed, 'He said that to me!' Lifestyle and health Because of their public profile, Garcia and his collaborators were occasionally singled out in the American. On October 2, 1967, 710 Ashbury Street in San Francisco (where the Grateful Dead had taken up residence the year before) was raided after a police. Grateful Dead members Phil Lesh, Bob Weir, and Ron 'Pigpen' McKernan were apprehended on marijuana charges which were later dropped, although Garcia himself was not arrested. The following year, Garcia's picture was used in a campaign commercial for.Most of the band were arrested again in January 1970, after they flew to New Orleans from Hawaii. After returning to their hotel from a performance, the band checked into their rooms, only to be quickly raided by police.

Approximately fifteen people were arrested on the spot, including many of the road crew, management, and nearly all of the Grateful Dead except for Garcia, who arrived later, outgoing keyboardist, who abstained from all drugs as a member of the, and McKernan, who eschewed illegal drugs in favor of alcohol.According to Bill Kreutzmann, the band's use of accelerated throughout the early 1970s. After experimenting with heroin in a brothel in 1974 (likely on the band's second European tour), Garcia was introduced to a smokeable form of the drug (initially advertised as refined ) colloquially known as 'Persian' or 'Persian Base' during the group's 1975 hiatus. Influenced by the stresses of creating and releasing and the acrimonious collapse of the band's independent record labels over the next two years, Garcia became increasingly dependent upon both substances. These factors, combined with the alcohol and drug abuse of several other members of the Grateful Dead, resulted in a turbulent atmosphere. By 1978, the band's chemistry began 'cracking and crumbling'resulting in poor group cohesion. As a result, Keith and left the band in February 1979. With the addition of keyboardist/vocalist that year amid the ongoing coalescence of the subculture, the band reached new commercial heights as a touring group on the American arena circuit in the early 1980s, enabling them to forsake studio recording for several years.

Nevertheless, this was offset by such factors as the band's atypically large payroll and Garcia's $700-a-day (equivalent to $1,900 in 2019) drug addiction, resulting in the guitarist taking on a frenetic slate of solo touring outside of the Grateful Dead's rigorous schedule, including acoustic duo concerts with longtime Jerry Garcia Band bassist that seldom extended beyond an hour and a half and were widely rumored to be a funding conduit for their respective addictions.Though things seemed to be getting better for the band, Garcia's health was declining. By 1983, Garcia's demeanor onstage had appeared to change. Despite still playing the guitar with great passion and intensity, there were times that he would appear disengaged; as such, shows were often inconsistent. Years of heavy tobacco smoking had affected his voice, and he gained considerable weight. By 1984, he would often rest his chin on the microphone during performances. The so-called 'endless tour'—the result of years of financial risks, drug use, and poor business decisions—had taken its toll.Garcia's decade-long heroin addiction culminated in the rest of the band holding an in January 1985.

Given the choice between the band or the drugs, Garcia agreed to check into a rehabilitation center in Oakland, California. A few days later in January, before the start of his program in Oakland, Garcia was arrested for in; he subsequently attended a drug diversion program.

Throughout 1985, he tapered his drug use on tour and at home with the assistance of Nora Sage; by the spring of 1986, he was completely abstinent.Precipitated by an unhealthy weight, dehydration, bad eating habits, and a recent relapse on the Grateful Dead's first stadium tour, Garcia collapsed into a diabetic coma in July 1986, waking up five days later. He later spoke about this period of unconsciousness as surreal: 'Well, I had some very weird experiences. My main experience was one of furious activity and tremendous struggle in a sort of futuristic, space-ship vehicle with insectoid presences. After I came out of my coma, I had this image of myself as these little hunks of that were stuck together kind of like stamps with perforations between them that you could snap off.'

Garcia's coma had a profound effect on him: it forced him to have to relearn how to play the guitar, as well as other, more basic skills. Within a handful of months, he had recovered, playing with the Jerry Garcia Band and the Grateful Dead again later that year.After Garcia's recovery, the band released a comeback album in 1987, which became their best-selling studio album.

Inspired by Garcia's improved health, a successful album and the continuing emergence of Mydland as a third frontman, the band's energy and chemistry reached a new peak in the late 1980s.Mydland died of a overdose in July 1990. His death greatly affected Garcia, leading him to believe that the band's chemistry would never be the same. Before beginning the fall tour, the band acquired keyboardists and Bruce Hornsby.

The power of Hornsby's performances drove Garcia to new heights on stage. However, as the band continued through 1991, Garcia became concerned with the band's future. He was exhausted from five straight years of touring. He thought a break was necessary, mainly so that the band could come back with fresh material. The idea was put off by the pressures of management, and the touring continued. Garcia's decrease in both stamina and interest to continue touring caused him to use heroin again after several years of intermittent prescription opiate use.

Though his relapse was brief, the band was quick to react. Soon after the last show of the tour in Denver, Garcia was confronted by the band with another intervention. After a disastrous meeting, Garcia invited Phil Lesh over to his home in San Rafael, California, where he explained that after the meeting he would start attending a clinic. Garcia said that he wanted to clean up in his own way, and return to making music.After returning from the band's 1992 summer tour, Garcia became sick, a throwback to his diabetic coma in 1986. Manasha Garcia nursed Jerry back to health and organized a team of health professionals which included Yen Wei Choong and Randy Baker, a licensed holistic doctor to treat him at home. Garcia recovered over the following days, despite the Grateful Dead having to cancel their fall tour to allow him time to recuperate.

Garcia reduced his cigarette smoking and began losing weight. He also became a vegetarian.Despite these improvements, Garcia's physical and mental condition continued to decline throughout 1993 and 1994.

Due to his frail condition, he began to use narcotics again to dull the pain.In light of his second drug relapse and current condition, Garcia checked himself into the during July 1995. His stay was limited, lasting only two weeks. Motivated by the experience, he then checked into the Serenity Knolls treatment center in, California, where he died. Death Garcia died in his room at the rehabilitation clinic on August 9, 1995, eight days after his 53rd birthday.

The cause of death was a heart attack. Garcia had long struggled with, weight problems, heavy smoking, and diabetes—all of which contributed to his physical decline.

Lesh remarked that, upon hearing of Garcia's death, 'I was struck numb; I had lost my oldest surviving friend, my brother.' Garcia's funeral was held on August 12, at St.

Stephen's Episcopal Church in. It was attended by his family, the remaining Grateful Dead members, and their friends, including former pro basketball player and musician Bob Dylan.

Deborah Koons barred Garcia's former wives from the ceremony.On August 13, approximately 25,000 people attended a municipally sanctioned public memorial at the Polo Fields of San Francisco's Golden Gate Park. Crowds produced hundreds of flowers, gifts, images, and a rendition of ' in remembrance. In the Haight, a single white rose was reportedly tied to a tree near the Dead's former Haight-Ashbury house, where a group of followers gathered to mourn.On the morning of April 4, 1996, after a total earlier that day, Weir and Deborah Koons, accompanied by Sanjay Mishra, spread half of Garcia's ashes into the at the holy city of, a site sacred to Hindus. The remaining ashes were poured into the. Koons did not allow former wife Carolyn Garcia to attend the spreading of the ashes. Musical equipment Garcia played many guitars during his career, which ranged from student and budget models to custom-made instruments.

During his thirty-five year career as a professional musician, Garcia used about 25 guitars.In 1965, when Garcia was playing with the Warlocks, he used a, which he also used on the of the. Beginning in late 1967 and ending in 1968, Garcia played black or gold mid-1950s guitars with pickups. In 1969, he picked up the and used it for most of that year and 1970, except for a small period in between where he used a.During Garcia's 'pedal steel flirtation period' (as Bob Weir referred to it in ), from approximately 1969 to 1972, he initially played a Fender instrument before upgrading to the ZB Custom D-10, especially in his earlier public performances. Although this was a double neck guitar, Garcia often would choose not to attach the last 5 pedal rods for the rear or ' neck. Additionally, he was playing an Emmons D-10 at the time of the Grateful Dead's and New Riders of the Purple Sage's final appearances at the Fillmore East in late April 1971. In 1969, Garcia played pedal steel on three notable outside recordings: the track 'The Farm' on the album, the track 'Oh Mommy' by and the ' by from their album, released in 1970.

Garcia played on the latter album in exchange for harmony lessons for the Grateful Dead, who were at the time recording.In 1971, Garcia began playing a sunburst Les Paul. In March and April 1971 – the time period during which the Grateful Dead recorded its second live album, – Garcia played the 'Peanut,' a guitar he had received from Rick Turner, who had custom built the guitar's body and incorporated the neck, pickups, and hardware from an early 60's Les Paul. In May, Garcia began using a 1957 natural finish Stratocaster that had been given to him. Garcia added an alligator sticker to the pickguard in the fall of that year. “Alligator' would remain Garcia's principal electric guitar until August 1973. In the summer of 1971, Garcia also played a double-cutaway. While Alligator was in the shop in the summer of 1972, he briefly reverted to the sunburst Stratocaster; this can be seen in.In late 1972, Garcia purchased the first guitar (Eagle) made by Alembic luthier for $850 (equivalent to $5,200 in 2019).

Enamored of Irwin's talents, he immediately commissioned his own custom instrument. This guitar, nicknamed Wolf for a memorable sticker Garcia added below the tailpiece, was delivered in May 1973 and replaced Alligator on stage in September. It cost $1,500 (equivalent to $8,600 in 2019), an extremely high price for the era.Wolf was made with an and featured numerous embellishments like alternating grain designs in the, inlays, and fret marker dots made of.

The body was composed of western maple wood which had a core of. Garcia later had Irwin (who ultimately left Alembic to start his own business) replace the electronics inside the guitar, at which point he added his own logo to the headstock alongside the Alembic logo. The system included two interchangeable plates for configuring pickups: one was made for strictly, while the other accommodated. Shortly after receiving the modified instrument, Garcia commissioned another custom guitar from Irwin with one caveat: 'Don't hold back.' During the Grateful Dead's, Wolf was dropped on several occasions, one of which caused a minor crack in the headstock. Following filming of The Grateful Dead Movie (in which the guitar is prominently visible) a month later, Garcia returned it to Irwin for repairs.

Throughout its absence, Garcia predominantly played several guitars, including the TB1000A (1975) and the TB500 (1976-1977). On September 28, 1977, Irwin delivered the refurbished Wolf back to Garcia. The wolf sticker which gave the guitar its name had now been inlaid into the instrument; it also featured an effects loop between the pick-ups and controls (so inline effects would 'see' the same signal at all times) which was bypassable. Irwin also put a new face on the headstock with only his logo (he later claimed to have built the guitar himself, though pictures through time clearly show the progression of logos, from Alembic, to Alembic & Irwin, to only Irwin). Nearly seven years after he commissioned it, Garcia received his second custom guitar from Irwin in the summer of 1979. He first employed the instrument in concert at a Grateful Dead performance at the on August 4, 1979. Its name was derived from the inlay on the preamp cover.

The body of Tiger was of rich quality: the top layer was, with the preceding layers being maple stripe, vermilion, and, in that order. The neck was made of western maple with an ebony fingerboard. The pickups consisted of a single coil SDS-1 and two humbucker DiMarzio Super IIs which were easily removable due to Garcia's preference for replacing his pickups every year or two.

The electronics were composed of an effects bypass loop, which allowed Garcia to control the sound of his effects through the tone and volume controls on the guitar, and a preamplifier/buffer which rested behind a plate in the back of the guitar. Fully outfitted, Tiger weighed 13 1⁄ 2 pounds (6.1 kg). This was Garcia's principal guitar for the next eleven years, and most played.In the late 1980s Garcia, Weir and CSN (along with many others) endorsed Alvarez Yairi acoustic guitars. There are many photographs circulating (mostly promotional) of Garcia playing a DY99 Virtuoso Custom with a Modulus Graphite neck. He opted to play with the less decorated model but the promotional photo from the Alvarez Yairi catalog has him holding the 'tree of life' model. This hand-built guitar was notable for the collaboration between Japanese Kazuo Yairi and Modulus Graphite of San Rafael.

As with most things Garcia, with his passing, the DY99 model is highly valued among collectors.In 1990, Irwin completed Rosebud, Garcia's fourth custom guitar. It was similar to his previous guitar Tiger in many respects, but featured different inlays and electronics, tone and volume controls, and weight. Rosebud, unlike Tiger, was configured with three humbuckers; the neck and bridge pickups shared a tone control, while the middle had its own. Atop the guitar was a Roland GK-2 pickup which fed the controller set inside the guitar. The GK2 was used in junction with the Roland GR-50 rack mount synthesizer. The GR-50 synthesizer in turn drove a Korg M1R synthesizer producing the effects heard during live performances of this period as heard on the Grateful Dead recording. Sections of the guitar were hollowed out to bring the weight down to 11 1⁄ 2 pounds (5.2 kg).

The inlay, a dancing skeleton holding a, covers a plate just below the. The final cost of the instrument was $11,000 (equivalent to $21,500 in 2019).In 1993, carpenter-turned-luthier Stephen Cripe tried his hand at making an instrument for Garcia.

After researching Tiger through pictures and films, Cripe set out on what would soon become known as Lightning Bolt, again named for its inlay. The guitar used Brazilian rosewood for the fingerboard and East Indian rosewood for the body, which, with admitted irony from Cripe, had been taken from a 19th-century bed used by opium smokers.

Built purely from guesswork, Lightning Bolt was a hit with Garcia, who began using the guitar exclusively. Soon after, Garcia requested that Cripe build a backup of the guitar.

Cripe, who had not measured or photographed the original, was told simply to 'wing it.' Cripe later delivered the backup, which was known by the name Top Hat. Garcia bought it from him for $6,500, making it the first guitar that Cripe had ever sold. However, infatuated with Lightning Bolt, Garcia rarely used the backup.After Garcia's death, the ownership of his Wolf and Tiger came into question.

According to Garcia's willhis guitars were bequeathed to Doug Irwin, who had constructed them. The remaining Grateful Dead members disagreed—they considered his guitars to be property of the band, leading to a lawsuit between the two parties. In 2001, Irwin won the case. However, nearly having been left destitute from a traffic accident in 1998, he decided to place the guitars up for auction in hopes of being able to start another guitar workshop.On May 8, 2002, Wolf and Tiger, among other memorabilia, were placed for auction at in New York City.
