                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Class A amps aren't louder at the same power level than Class AB amps. That's one of the more enduring myths of guitardom, doubtless started by someone selling a lower powered Class A amp. Of course, they can often be overdriven well out of Class A conditions (heavy power stage distortion), and then they're putting out more power than they're rated at. <br><br>Class A amps do put out more heat for their power rating, being the least efficient class of operation. <br><br>An overdriven, distorting single ended amp does make a different sound than an overdriven push-pull amp, with a big even harmonic content. Push-pull stages put out nearly all odd harmonics.]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[If I'm not mistaken, the Gibson GA-5 is an all Class A tube amp.  I'm not going to get into the ugliness of trying to describe exactly what that means, but theoretically it's noticibly louder, and there is no crossover distortion.  That, combined with a bit of money for the name is why the GA-5 is so much more.  Apparently 15 watts in Class A is fully gigable.  Can't say I've done or known anyone who has, but that's the word from Gibson.<br><br>If you're going the 5 watt route, consider you're needs.  That's pretty much practice and recording only.  If you're going to jam, take the step up to 30 watts.<br><br>I picked up my used Classic 30 for $300 and it's fully gigable, plays over drums, etc.  I'd recommend it to anyone with the need.]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[When I walked into guitar center a few months ago to buy some new strings for my accoustic I went over to try out a Tele at their Fender display.  At first I looked at the Cyber twins and champs, but I couldn't even figure out how to turn them on.  I walk around past the HRD's and see a blues jr on the floor.  I immediately spotted the toggle, plugged in, flicked it on and tried it out.  It was a dream to play with.<br><br>It's really simple, the controls are all right there and it's easy to figure them out.  And this was my first time playing an electric!  I'ed have stayed much longer had the place not been packed and the bass strings horribly out of tune.]]></content:encoded>
