Get killer guitar tones at home by learning how each component and equipment affect your sound! Every guitarist, beginner or expert, always wants to improve his/her sound but finding a jaw-dropping signature tone is a form of art almost comparable to playing guitar itself, given its complexity and the results we can achieve from it. This book gives you the necessary knowledge on how to choose, improve and adapt equipment to your needs and tastes in a simple, direct language. It is divided in four sections: the first is dedicated to the electric guitar, detaling how its body type (hollow, semi-hollow and solid body) and its components (guitar wood, hardware, pickups, strings, etc) affect its tone; the second section is dedicated to the amplifiers' types (tube, solid state and digital modelling amps), passing though the analog vs digital question and the importance of a good speaker. The third section analyses the pedals effect types and the signal chain while the last section provides highly valuable tips on how to improve your sound, step by step. An easy reading with lots of valuable information for beginners and experienced players alike.
