Andi Picker’s ‘Taming Tubes’ #1: Why is My Amp Too Loud, And What Can I Do About It?

In the first of this trilogy of videos, guest writer Andi Picker describes his guitar-gear journey over the years and the challenges of trying to balance loudness with a great sound.

From traditional tube amplifiers to new, digital options like the Hotone Ampero II Stomp, Andi demonstrates some options (both traditional, digital and hybrid) when it comes to achieving a guitar sound that is great at all volumes.

This episode looks at the features of amps and the gear that we use around them that can help us to navigate the tightrope of sound vs loudness – what do Master Volume controls do, features that can help us to tame a loud amp, understanding what power ratings mean, how much speaker choice matters, and some simple tools and options to help-along an old, or new, favourite amp.
