	100W Guitar Amplifier (Mk II)
		As shown, with a typical guitar input, it is possible to get a very fat overdrive sound by winding up the volume, and then setting the master for a suitable level.
		The switching jack on the Hi input means that when a guitar is connected to the Lo input, it forms a voltage divider because the other input is shorted to earth.
		The life of a guitar amp is a hard one, and I suggest that you use the largest heatsink you can afford, since it is very common to have elevated temperatures on stage (mainly due to all the lighting), and this reduces the safety margin that normally applies for domestic equipment.

	Guitar amplifier - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Tone controls on early guitar amplifiers were very simple and provided a great deal of treble boost but the controls, the loudspeakers used and the low power of the amplifiers (typically, 15 watts or less prior to the mid 1950's) had poor high treble and bass response.
		Guitar amplifiers were at first used with bass guitars and electronic keyboards, but when broader-bandwidth sounds are needed, other instruments use a suitable full-range speaker system and different wattage level.
		A 5-watt amplifier is half as loud as a 50-watt amplifier, and a half-watt amplifier is a quarter as loud as a 50-watt amp.

	Instrument amplifier - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		An instrument amplifier is an electronic amplifier designed for use with an electric or electronic musical instrument, such as an electric guitar.
		Amplifiers of this type, such as Marshall amplifiers, are used in a range of genres, including hard rock, metal, and punk.
		In the 1960s and 1970s, high output power amplifiers were preferred for instrument amplifiers, especially for large concerts, because public address systems were generally only used to amplify the vocals.

	What is a Guitar Amplifier? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		The original guitar amplifiers were powered by vacuum tubes, just like a lot of electronic devices of the 1940s and 50s.
		With an electric guitar, the amplifier must have a preamp to initially boost the unamplified signal for the secondary power amplifier.
		Guitar amplifiers can be purchased with the power amp "head" separate from the speaker, but usually they are together as a "combo." The cabinet itself will affect the sound, depending on the type of wood, size, and whether the back is open or closed.

		Guitar amplification is a specialised field, where much commonly understood theory does not apply, and little theory is published.
		Technically speaking, a guitar amplifier has a specific type of non-linear gain at its signal extremes, and a specialised type of limited frequency response.
		Guitars have evolved to some extent; current Gibsons and Stratocasters include playablity, technical and consistency improvements over their original 1950's releases, although finding good wood is becoming difficult today.

		My guitar amp is a Fender Frontman 15 watt, and my bass amp is a Johnson 35 watt.
		Well, I don't know about the amp, but on the guitar, the jack should not be shorting out the cord, in fact, nothing should short it out, really, exept for some surge of power from the amp, which is very unlikely.
		What you should do for the guitar, though, is pull off the pickguard, and look at the connections, seeing if anything is corroded or flened.

		This is offset by the rarity of good guitar wood (it makes a huge difference, even on an electric guitar), increased labour costs for both guitars and amplification equipment, and the availability of good and consistent quality valves.
		This is most likely a result of not understanding typical electric guitar specifications, and in assuming that the purpose of the amplifier is to accurately reproduce the signal without distortion.
		Most musical styles will require the amplifier to be overdriven for extended periods of time, and the amplifier must be designed to provide this without duress on any components.

	60W Guitar Amplifier (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		This design adopts a well established circuit topology for the power amplifier, using a single-rail supply of about 60V and capacitor-coupling for the speaker(s).
		The advantages for a guitar amplifier are the very simple circuitry, even for comparatively high power outputs, and a certain built-in degree of loudspeaker protection, due to capacitor C8, preventing the voltage supply to be conveyed into loudspeakers in case of output transistors' failure.
		The preamp is powered by the same 60V rails as the power amplifier, allowing to implement a two-transistors gain-block capable of delivering about 20V RMS output.
