Glad to hear it is cool, been eye-ing for a while. The Stratocaster Chronicles is a real joy also.

Gear porn is great...

Doesn't get more hardcore then this one, Maybe the mccarty years comes close, but who ever heard of that other minor guitar company in kalmazo?

If you live and love amps and Fender, this is a great read !!!!!

The technical stuff kind of slows me down a bit, however in my personal quest for perfect tone, it has helped me understand the controllable's and the majic if you will of tone.

what did you guys think about the cd's they included ???
I found them great entertainment and a source of amp gas!!!!!

I didn't like it because there were no schematics or layouts and no real insight as to the technical workings of these amps.

If it's anything like,"The First Fifty Years" by Teagle & Sprung, it must be good. To look elsewhere for the schematics and layouts is kind of a hassle, but the first book is such a good read for everyone, that us techs can grab another source for more. I totally enjoy the story and info in the first book, have to check out this new edition. Art
