Great pictures, extensive coverage, and an insightful look at Tube Amps, old and new!
The book covers a lot of areas in different ways, which I like because it helps me absorb the information. I like reading about the evolution of different Amps and the practical side that a technician will appreciate. There are always intangibles when it comes to sound and I like the way the author gives a place to that dimension of interpreting values regarding the different aspects of the amps he is writing about. I am a harmonica player and was slightly disappointed that there is no mention of modifications that would specifically pertain to amps designed for that purpose. Other than that I love the detail and scope of the book and would highly recommend it to anyone interested in tube amps.

Not for the very experienced but a whole chapter of great tube amp porn!
Seasoned amp builders will not get a lot of knowledge out of this book but there is a section of pictures of the business end of many famous amplifiers. The book even takes you step by step through the building of a tube amp but this must be learned by experience not by [don't electrocute yourself] warnings. It is a great book for beginners to read and like I mentioned many great pictures. It's the 'Playboy Magazine' for tube amp people.
