Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is really a treasure of information on Fender amps with enough pix to make you salivate.
The CD is ok but I expected more. Greg Koch's over the top playing (and commentary) can get a bit annoying.
Also, they just don't cover enough amps for my taste. No tweed pro, no tweed super, not enough time on the bassman.
The CD's are broken into two CD's. Vintage and Modern.
When they are talking about vintage deluxes, Koch decides to demo and spend most time onthe '57 Tweed Deluxe REISSUE!!!!!!!!! This to me dropped them a star since that should have been placed on the modern CD.
I guess there is not enough time to cover everything but I wish he did more.
The idea of a short clip of every Fender amp model ever made played with a tele, strat and LP makes me salivate ;).
This CD was an attempt to do that but falls short IMHO. However, it's better than nothing.

From the same "dream team" that created The Fender Stratocaster Chronicles (Vintage Guitar magazine's 2004 Book of the Year) comes this new publication covering the other side of Fender's legacy, the instrument amplifier. Revered as much as one's guitar, the Fender amplifier gets its due in this full-color, richly illustrated book. Features over 400 images, including legendary guitarists such as Eric Clapton, B.B. King, Neil Young, Pete Townshend, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Muddy Waters, Robbie Robertson and Dick Dale, and two CDs featuring over 100 tracks that make terms and topics come alive.
