ÊThe Guitar Amp Handbook: Understanding Tube Amplifiers and Getting Great Sounds Updated EditionÊ brings fresh information to the table to help guitarists understand everything about what makes their amps tick and how to use them to sound better than ever. It builds on the popular original edition of the book first published in 2005.ÞCentral to the book's success is the way it walks musicians through the significance of each crucial circuit stage and component of a great number of classic and modern tube amp designs helping guitarists get the most from the amps they already own or choose new amps that are best suited to their needs.ÞÊThe Guitar Amp HandbookÊ reveals many of the tips and tricks used by today's top designers and builders and it debunks the hype used by the marketing departments at large manufacturers keen on selling specific amps that might not be right for particular players.
