Back in the late 1960s—Jimi notwithstanding—the cat’s pajamas of amplifiers were solid-state. Tube amps were heavy and prone to feedback. Solid-state amps were clean, big, and loud. I ran a whole band off a humongous 350-watt Mosrite amp. The mix sucked, but we were loud! The most desirable amps at that time were made by Standel and, to a lesser extent, Kustom (depended on your kind of music).

It's one I'm glad I no longer have. #amps #musicians

There may have been a time when vacuum tubes and microprocessors seemed strange bedfellows. But nowadaysgiven the countless digital processors with tubed output stages, and an even greater number of tubed amps and preamps whose insides are crawling with the latest solid-state deviceswe're more or less used to the idea. Here as elsewhere, hybrids are no big deal.
