Tube Guitar Amplifier
If you’re really a purist for your guitar sounds, then you’ll insist upon a tube guitar amplifier to highlight your guitar playing.
Why a tube guitar amplifier? Well, let’s first take a look at the history of the tube guitar amplifier. The first tube-type (the only ones) were not made for guitars. Early radios, and later phonographs made use of the vacuum tube for amplification of sounds by electronic means.
The tube guitar amplifier didn’t become popular until the introduction of electrolytic capacitors and and rectifier tubes allowed the production of economical built-in power supplies that could be plugged into wall sockets, instead of heavy multiple battery packs (Wikipedia). These early amps were used during the Hawaiian music craze of the late 1930’s and early1940’s, where the basic acoustic instrument was amplified by the tube amplifier.
The early tube guitar amplifiers were of relatively low power (typically 15 watts or less) and were short on bass and treble. Bythe 1950’s, tube guitar amplifiers were really hitting their stride as manufacturers such as Fender and Stratocaster began developing the tube amplifier technology and even including special effects such as “vibrato” and “tremelo” that were a feature of early Fender Amps.
The electronic in general began to turn to the transistor for some very basic reasons. First was size – tubes needed a certain amount of space, which made for a large and bulky cabinet. Transistors could be made tiny – now they’re microscopic in size. Tube amplifiers need large amounts of power, and they generate heat. Plus, tubes eventually wear out and have to be replaced – all demerits.
But, guitar sound purists really like the tonal qualities of tube guitar amplifiers, as compared to solid-state units. There’s a strong following of tube guitar amplifiers, and you can even buy brand-new tube guitar amplifiers today.
