Book Description
by Gerald Weber Kendrick Books If you have questions about guitar amplifiers-how to fix them, how to restore them, or how to hot-rod them-this book has the answer. This book is written for the guitarist or collector who desires a common sense approach to understanding the essence of vintage tube amps and vintage tube tone. Not written for engineers, it does not contain engineering formulas, polar mathematic equations, or abbreviations that are assumed you should know. Gerald Weber, a regular columnist for Vintage Guitar magazine, shares the knowledge he has accumulated over the years of repairing and building his line of Kendrick amps. 6 inch. x 9 inch..

この本は、かの有名なアンプメーカのケンドリック出版の本です。
だからといってケンドリックのアンプの事が書いてあるのではありませんよ。
フェンダーのヴィンテージアンプについての技法や裏わざ、秘けつを伝授している解説書ですね
だからといってケンドリックのアンプの事が書いてあるのではありませんよ。
フェンダーのヴィンテージアンプについての技法や裏わざ、秘けつを伝授している解説書ですね
特にフェンダーのツイードアンプとブラックフェースアンプについてかなり興味深い事が詳しく書かれています。
それと面白いのは、シルバーフェイスのツインリバーブをブラックフェイスに改造するコーナがある。
図解入りでかなり詳しく説明してあるので興味ある方は一度ブラックフェイスモデルに改造しても面白いかもね。
また、各アンプメーカ別のＱ＆Ａは、やはりフェンダーアンプについての質問が多く記述されているが
マーシャル・ＶＯＸ・ギブソンなどもあり興味深い回答が盛りたくさんです。
それと、膨大なギターアンプの回路図と配線図、これだけでも価値がある本といえる。
インターネットで回路図と配線図は手に入るがやはり本として持って置きたい。
最後にケンドリックのアンプのカタログが載っているがケンドリックの本なので当たり前なのか。
英語が苦手な人にも以外に分かりやすいのはアンプに関係した単語が多いためなのか。
辞書を引きながらのんびり訳して読むのも良いのでは。

Basically, good information. Some misinformation though.
1998/4/24
Gerald Weber has build guitar amps for years, the Kendrick Amps. These are copies of the original Fender tweeds. He's also built a few amps of his own. However, he's really no expert on the real issues as they relate to tube amps, even though he has a lot of good information.
Here are some examples of the misinformation I found in the book:
He states, in the first chapter, that the reason tubes amps sound so good, in the early days, is the fact that they used diode tubes in the early supplies. When current was drawn across the tube, it developed a voltage drop which causes the output tube voltage to sag, thereby causing a mid-rangey distortion type.
While the action (dropped voltage across the output tubes) is true, the explanation behind it, is not.
The real issue, here, is the fact that the power supplies, back then, were not stiff supplies. They didn't have enough capacitance in the output filters to compensate for loading issues (i.e. instantaneous current draw). The newer supplies are much "stiffer" and they regulate better. A solid-state supply could be made to match the older vacuum tube supplies.
There are other obvious electronic explanations, in the book, that do not follow real physics and/or electronics models. What he is saying about the final result in the amplifiers sound quality and operational charactaristics is correct, however, the explanation of how it really works is not correct.
If you're into vintage amps, modifications, or just building one from the schematics Gerald has done an awesome job compiling information. He's got great, readable schematics, layout diagrams, etc. in the book. It's a bit biased toward Fender, however.
He also has some great historical information, as it relates to the Fender amps, as well.
Overall, I think the book is good. It's just hard to read because of the indescrepancies in the electronics section.

Well worth the money
2000/3/24
Weber does a good job of covering the basics of tube amp design, with a clear bias towards Fender amps. You can learn a lot about these amps, and feel (relatively) comfortable servicing or modifying your amp. It is comprehensive enough to use as the guide in building your own amp from the information and schematics provided.

Good, but not what it calls itself

This is an interesting book, but it is not, as it calls itself, "a desktop reference of hip vintage guitar amps," unless the definition of "hip" is made so subjective as to be meaningless.
The only amps regarding which this book could be considered a reference are a handful of old Fenders---one brand, and not even all of them. In fact, it only mentions Marshall amps occasionally, and there is practically nothing about Vox, or Ampeg, or Silvertone, much less any of the less-common vintage amps. With a title like this, I expected a book that one could leaf through and learn about vintage amps. This is not that book.
But that's not to say this book doesn't have its good points. The author was an amplifier repairman and builder for many years, and he shares a lot of insights and tricks that I have not seen elsewhere. Most of the information in the book is aimed at, and of greatest use to, somebody who builds, refurbishes or repairs amplifiers, and there are a lot of hobbyists in that category (like me), and not a lot of resources available to them, so this book definitely can be an asset. But again, from the title, it is far from clear that it's for that audience.
And, while Weber was a knowledgeable amp builder, he's not really a writer, and whoever edited this book for the publisher didn't really do much of a job---it's disjointed, and while it contains a lot of good information, it's not really organized. One chunk of the book is reprints of Trainwreck newsletters, presented without any context. And almost half the book is reprinted schematics, most for amps not even mentioned elsewhere in the book. In this book, they are padding, adding heft but not much useful information.
If you build or tinker with amps as a hobby, there's probably a fair amount of information in here that you will find interesting and possibly useful. But if you leave the soldering to somebody else, this book is probably not for you. If you want a reference that will give you some basic information about hip vintage guitar amps, Pittman's "Tube Amp Book" is probably better, although it covers a lot more stuff and doesn't go into great depth. Or, if you're looking for a book that explains how amps work, Hunter's "Guitar Amplifier Handbook" would be better. But if you already have those and you're looking for more, this book might be up your alley.
