The Soul of Tone - Fender Amps Book w/ CDs
Hello all,
I just read most of a book called The Soul of Tone: Celebrating 60 Years of Fender Amps (Book & CD) by Tom Wheeler. It's got two CDs with sound samples of many of Fender's amps, so this is a great intro to those of us trying to get familiar with some of the basic differences in sound. One CD is vintage amps, the other is modern, including reissues. It's a huge book too. Lots of great photos and info.
Anyone else read it?

more interested in getting a good Fender than reading about them although truck loads of others could work too.

Thanks DVM, I didn't think it looked right.
And Player, I'm a librarian by trade, so I tend to read about anything I'm remotely interested in. :-) But the CDs were what I liked. More consistent comparisons than YouTube vids.
