Journalist and musician Dave Hunter, through books, magazines, television, and radio, has made a career out of explaining, in layman's terms, the complex relationships between guitar amp tone and the technology that creates it. Written with a technical accuracy that engineers can appreciate, and with a descriptive punch and sizzle that speaks directly to guitar players, his Guitar Amp Handbook1 has become the quintessential introductory text on guitar amplifier components. His highly innovative Guitar Rigs,2 brings together legendary guitar and amplifier combinations and demonstrates, through session recordings and historical context, the stylistic diversity and tonal depth that these classic instruments are capable of producing.
Dave Hunter is also the author of The Guitar Pickups Handbook,3 The Electric Guitar Sourcebook,4 and Guitar Effects Pedals.5 He is a former editor of The Guitar Magazine (UK) and has edited and contributed to books such as The Tube Amp Book,6 Acoustic Guitars - The Illustrated Encyclopedia,7 Play Acoustic,8 Totally Guitar,9 and Recording Guitar and Bass.10
