 | Vacuum Tube Circuit Design: Guitar Amplifier Poweramps A comprehensive manual for designing power amps and phase inverters from scratch, this book provides the engineering details that professional amp builders need to create new circuits. To determine how component values effect the dynamics of an overdriven power stage, the author includes full blown studies of grid bias excursion, power supply sag and negative feedback effects. Softbound, 376 pages, 1.7 lbs | $59.95 More Details |
 | Vacuum Tube Guitar and Bass Amplifier Servicing Guitar amp repair is split into several categories: User serviceable problems (fixable without chassis removal), dead and strange sounding amps. Includes sections on amp disassembly, preventative maintenance, special effects repair, signal tracing, component testing and replacement, bias adjustment, tube matching and amp mods. It's assumed the reader knows basic electronic theory, reading schematics, and can use tools and test equipment. 84 pages, 0.8 lb, 8.5" x 11" | $23.95 More Details |
 | Vacuum Tube Circuit Design: Guitar Amplifier Preamps, 2nd Edition Vacuum Tube Circuit Design: Guitar Amplifier Preamps By Richard Kuehnel Written for experienced builders who want to design their own circuits from the ground up, this book presents a comprehensive study of triode and pentode preamp design. From the impedance characteristics of the guitar pickup, to the Miller capacitance at the second-stage tube grid, the author describes how to manipulate frequency response and control the dynamics of nonlinear distortion. Softbound, 223 pages, 1.1lbs | $49.95 More Details |
 | The Guitar Amp Handbook, Dave Hunter Understanding Tube Amplifiers and Getting Great Sounds There's a huge amount of hype and mythology surrounding tube amplifiers in the guitar world. for years, experts have argued over the tiny details of exactly how they do what they do, and how their various components interact. What's undeniable is that, far more than being just a 'loudness booster,' the unique combination of tubes, capacitors, resistors, and transformers in these amps can contribute enormously to the quality of sound derived from any electric guitar. | $17.95 More Details |
