PRESS QUOTES
Another extremely comprehensive Tipbook, providing exactly the right amount of information on every conceivable topic. (Music Maker)

Written in a concise, yet accessible and in-depth form, the book offers lots of information in a handy portable package. It works well for teachers, beginner and intermediate students, even specialists in guitar amplification. (Vintage Guitar Magazine)

Tipbook Amplifiers and Effects would seem to be a book written exclusively for electric guitarists, but it ain’t. Sure, it has all the electric-guitar info you would expect, but it also has chapters on acoustics amps, P.A. systems, mics and pickups, and effect processors, all of which apply to the acoustic. Topics such as acoustic-amp speakers, phase relationships, feedback, and amp testing are all covered. A ton of info, and there’s a little something for everyone! (Frets)

Comprehensive approach; easy-to-follow layout makes these Tipbooks a joy to read. (Music Trades)

Your book is great for beginners, as well as experts who would like to refresh their knowledge or would like additional in-depth information. (George K., engineer)

The book is useful and informative and every musician needs to have a such a book in his library. (Krist)
