 Finally, a GREAT tube amp primer!
By Robi St. Antoine
There are not a lot of books quintessentially regarding guitar tube amps, and while there are surely a great deal of outstanding texts out there, not a single soul had written a comprehensive, plain-english, yet technically in-depth resource explaining how all the dissimilar parts of a guitar tube amp add up to great tone… Until now. I think there are some persons like myself who don’t have any kind of technology background (i.e.; no math) yet who have a deep interest in understanding precisely what makes their vintage amp tick, and who might just want to build one from scratch one day. This book is for us. Dave Hunter has done his homework and put together a manual that covers a great sampling of makes and types, explaining things that a lot of of the other books assume you already know, and in a non-condescending manner. The Guitar Amp Handbook is from the same publisher that put out the latest edition of The Tube Amp Book by Aspen Pittman, and it is a perfective supplement to that book which, while rich in schematics is pretty missing out in technical explanation… Actually, The Tube Amp book has a similar problem that plagues most existent tube amp books; it has outstanding tips and tricks, but no real fundamentals. Dave Hunter has given us the foundation that will at long last grant us to genuinely gain from the other books.

another winner from Dave Hunter
By tim b
Buy it! If you have any interest at all in how your guitar amplifier works, you need this book – I can’t commend it anymore than that! Dave has authored more books from Publisher Backbeat Books, and they’re all killer productions – great/informative writing, superb binding, covers and outstanding detail in the publishing distinct elements of these books.
Dave Hunter is well versed in all things guitar, as I have learned through buying and reading all of his works to date. He’s got a distinguishable book here in his approach and honestness on the subject, and it’s worth each penny. Loaded with real world, no BS selective information – outstanding sections on signal chain, components, how to select the right amp for you and at the end, a to a complete degree documented amplifier kit (which is now available through the publisher’s website) which you may either buy direct, or put together with your own parts!
Highly recommended, and I highly commend Dave’s other books as well!

THIS BOOK DELIVERS ON IT’S PROMISE!
By Geoffrey R. Balme
When you are done reading this – you will grasp tube-based (and let’s face it those are the only kind any of us genuinely care about) guitar amplifiers. Hunter writes clearly, and concisely, my only objection to his style is that he’s a little bit too sympathetic to people’s feelings. I’d rather he just apologize once for his views and level his criticisms.
But that’s me.
I’ve been playing guitar for going on 30 years, and I managed to learn practical service info in regards to tubes and controls as well as effects set up.
The great thing regarding this book is it will actually instruct you how to build an amp! I haven’t tried it as I’ve not got the cash for the kit, but I feel more than encouraged by the clean layout and direct explanations.
