To play an instrument you need to take a theoreticcal-technical-practical approach as well as have good knowledge of the sound that the instrument is capable of producing. Once an acoustic or electric guitar is amplified, either live or in a recording studio, it can produce different sounds depending on many factors. In this section we will talk about amplification, analyzing every part of the amplifier, both valvular and transistor, but also the use of more complex systems, for example combining a preamplifier to a power amplifier.
In the section dedicated to the effects we will analyze the effects, subdivided by catagory and type, giving a combination of suggestions and some adjustment tricks.
