Just one You! Never really understood the terminology prior to this. Been playing 8 months now, loving it more than ever each new day. And I'm

Great introduction to amplifiers for beginner guitar players. Buying an amp can be quite confusing when you're just starting out. Knowing what all the controls do is certainly a big help.

Thank you so much man, you deserve endless subscribers for all your effort

This is a great tutorial - you just got a new subscriber! Thanks for using a relatable "real world" amp, too. I don't understand why so many people like to do beginner level demonstration videos using $1800 Mesa Boogie Mark Vs and the like.

Thank u much. I just brought an electric guitar and been racking my brain on how to do those cool sustain sounds and this really helped

Mine only has an overdrive button, bass and treble knobs 😔 time to save up. Only a week into playing. Loving the numb fingertip feeling though. The change from e-minor to your all finger G is killing me too 🤬

some vids i watch.. they talk about where the amp was made, why they were made, they don't tell me how to use the amp. But you sir, you get to the point! Thank you!

Andy, Thanks for sharing your videos! I must say you have the greatest videos. Simplified is the best way too keep students wanting to continue the desire to learn. I could never explain the proper way to learn. I'm sending you my future students!!

you rock man thank you for all of these I'll recommend you to anyone I've been struggling on this and it helps

Great video, helped me understand my electric violin and amp, thanks!

[PaperClipFlip]

Great video! I'm a beginner guitarist. Any tips for maintaining your amp?

1. Is it OK to keep my lead cable plugged into amp? I'm worried frequently plugging in and out will loosen the input jack.

2. Will it destroy the amp to dial everything to the max? Or are they built to take even the highest settings of everything? (As well as frequently changing sound setting?)

excellent lesson Sir in beautiful English God bless you.

[subhadeep]

the best clear tutorial ever thank you

[ChuckstaGaming]

Exactly the info I needed. I got confused by my amp, as it had no "volume" control! Now I know :)
