Guitar Amps- Adding a professional drama and touch to the music

Guitar amplifiers are the electronic amplifiers used to amplify the signals of a guitar thus producing sound through the designated loudspeaker. These amps help in adding an electronic effect to the guitar sound. They can also twist the tone of the guitar by emphasizing or de-emphasizing on special frequencies. A guitarist with the help of these amplifiers can produce high quality louder and richer sound. One can easily find them in various electronics and musical instruments store.

Varieties in Guitar Amplifiers

Valve amps- This amplifier is a classic Vox AC30 which has a valve and has been used by many well known artists since years. Transistor amps are no doubt less expensive than valve amplifiers but are considered to produce less desirable sound.

Hybrid and Solid state amps- Hybrid amps in the pre-amp stage have two valves and then use transistors. A One of the most common hybrid amp is Marshal Series of valve state. As the name suggest it is a mixture of Valve and Solid state amplifier.

Emulator amplifier – Line 6 emulator amplifier is a digital interpretation of valve amps. As these valves are categorized as analogue valves their tone varies accordingly. They have a sensitive touch hence responding better to picking dynamics. Valve amps present inside it helps in producing a nicer and warmer tone.

Other important considerations 

There are many professional musicians that use different amplifiers and switch between them by the use of A/B switcher. Valve amplifiers are mostly preferred as they are fine at clean and good at distortion or overdrive. Vox AC30 can also use clean amp as it is good at producing British clean sound. Mesa boogie or Marshall can be switched to and fro when a dirtier sound is required. For providing a dirty channel as required by a professional guitarist dirty channel can be used.

Many guitarists do not prefer using solid state amplifiers. Hybrids are quite popular over last few decades and amplifiers emulating analog signals are also desirable. At last we can say that different guitarists and individuals like different sounds depending upon their taste and choice.
