Yep, the article did a good of explaining things. I know all of that stuff the article talked about (I have a bit of an electronics background), but I like they way it clearly and concisely explained things. The article should be used as a primer by any player who wishes to use tube amps, and isn't familiar with thier workings. It'll at least give them a basic understanding of how tube amps work. And, hopefully they'll learn enough, to avoid a lot of the snake oil "mojo" derived stuff that people use to sell amps at outragiuos prices (such as using cloth covered wire, etc.) nowadays. I bookmarked it to send to some of those idiots that post amp threads, making outrageous claims,

...wouldn't that be nice? Course, it seems that half the crap marketed at guitarists is predicated on the customer being ignorant of the facts.
