There will alwys be a confusion about certain tings...when it comes to TUBE AMPS some of us with an ELECTRICAL BACK ROUND have our thoughts and others have there's.

I have built amps, pups and some pedals in my days and have found these TWO books PRICELESS

The first is the TUBE AMP BOOK by ALLESANDRO........

The second is advertised right above us...THE SOUL OF TONE...60 year of FENDER AMPS.

OF course the second deals primarily with FENDERS it goes into TUBE AMPS DEEP and for those who LOVE VINTAGE FENDERS (like me) should definetly own it .

The ALLESANDRO is more of a beginning to end about TUBE AMPS from the first to the most recent it explains ALL THE CLASS'S, how to repair, change tubes, trouble shoot and both come with DVD"S as well.

I hope you guys can find this use full......

Also VINTAGE GUITAR MAGAZINE is loaded with knowledge and dealers you can TRUST who've been in business for years and can help you fix, restore or tell ya the truth when it's time to put that old baby to rest or pay a ton to get her back up and running.

You can get all the needed parts whether they be NOS or just NEW and better parts. Same with TUBES CAPS and any and everything for TUBE AMPS.

I recently picked up a self build METROPOLIS AMP KIT TO BUILD A JTM 45
though I was NEVER a fan of the MARSHALL or VOX sound I know these amps are invaluable for there tone and maybe they will inspire me to write different if my tone was changed.

HOPE this helps us ALL out.....for the coin you'll pay for the two books it's well worth knowing what you;re buying and what to look for to know if it has the right SPEAKERS, trannys' and if anything has been changed.

Good LUCK

8) NO but THAT BOOK ALSO IS PRICELESS !!!

You can buy the ALLESANDRO BOOK by going to there site which you canget by GOOGLEING it.

It can be purchased at www.jklutherie.com

Hope that helps....but the book you're showing is just as good for 25-30$$$ they are all worth it.

The ALLESANDRO BOOK goes heavy into detail......
