TUBES                                   

ECC83S / 12AX7  JJ ELECTRONIC - now available with Gold Pins

The JJ ECC83S is considered to be one of the best for guitar and hi fi applications. These tubes are immediately discernable from other 12AX7s. They have a construction that is similar to a frame-grid tube - similar to the Telefunken ECC803S. This construction makes them very rugged and reliable and the spiral filament makes tube hum non-existent. For the discerning hi fidelity user, these tubes are now available with gold pins. 

ECC83S JJ G - priced at $33 inc. GST - matching $2 per tube if required.

The great GEC/Genalex look-alikes. Manufactured in the Chinese Shuguang factory and sold under different brands (Valve Art, Gold Aero, Sino, Groove Tubes, Golden Dragon etc.). For the emotional, seductive tube sound while maintaining detail, resolution and transparency, the Shuguang KT88-98 is among the best. These are now available ex stock.

THE GUITAR AMP HANDBOOK
  by Dave Hunter    240 pages
This book discloses many of the tips & tricks used by today's top designers & builders, while at the same time exposing the myths peddled by tube amp fanatics or by manufacturers marketing departments. If you are a guitarist keen to learn more about what makes different amps sound the way they do, and how to get the most out of any amp that you use, you will find all the information here. Along the way you will hear about how the author once made an authentic-sounding "1950s tweed-style" guitar amp from an old $20 gramophone;  about what kind of modifications and components replacements you might make to your amp; and, if you're up for more of a challenge- you'll also find step by step instructions on how to build your own sweet-sounding, genuine class A tube amp at home with readily available components. Finally in an exclusive interview section, top designers and manufacturers discuss their own amp building techniques, theories, and secrets.

THIS IS YOUR BRAIN ON MUSIC

  by Daniel J. Levitin    276 pages

A fascinating exploration of the relationship between music and the mind--and the role of melodies in shaping our lives. Unravels a host of mysteries that effect everything from pop culture to our understanding of human nature, including: Are our musical preferences shaped in utero? Is there a cutoff point for acquiring new tastes in music? What do PET scans and MRI's reveal about the brain's response to music? Is musical pleasure different from other kinds of pleasure?

Levitin looks at all of these questions and unlocks deep secrets about how nature and nurture forge a uniquely human obsession.
