Buying A Guitar Amplifier - Finding The Right Amp For You
The choice of an amplifier is a very important decision for a guitarist, because it is the combination of the guitar in particular and the specific amplifier, a guitar player is his signature sound. What is a signature sound? Well, is this: How many tickets did you hear before you know it's BB King or Carlos Santana, Zakk Wylde, or? The concept of signature sound.
So how do you find your signature sound? Experience!
Types of Amplifiers:
SOLID STATE AMPS
These amps are called solid state because they use transistors for their pre and power sections instead of tubes. They are very reliable and rarely need repairs. They often have a very clean tone, although many of the "distortion" channels also.
Tube amplifiers
Tube amp favored by many guitarists for its warm tone, fat and distortion of "organic." Tube amps usually sound louder than solid state amplifier of the same power and have some "feel" without a solid state amplifier. Most tubes have Ampère independent channels that can go from clean to distorted tones instantly. Tube performance can deteriorate over time, so the tubes must be changed from time to time.
Modeling Amps
Now you can become very expensive to buy different amps until you find one, right? You can go to guitar stores and try to continue with your guitar amp. in fact, it's a good idea for beginners. The problem is it takes a lot of playing time thanks to a special amplifier to really see what it can do for you. You could end up living in a guitar shop!
A solution could be the beginning of a modeling amp. Modeling amps use digital processors to simulate the sound of old-fashioned tube technology. Using software that "models" voice tube amplifiers (and cabinets), audio amplifiers to put a number of amplifiers in one package. Modeling amps are programmable, and often are equipped with digital effects including delay, chorus, etc.
This way, you can test the sounds of many different amplifiers, while buying only one. So if one day you decide on a case that you want, you can buy an amplifier to meet their specific needs.
Combo amp or head and cabinet?
It depends on where you want to play. For small venues such as clubs, a combo amplifier (AMP, which includes both the amplifier and speakers in one unit) would be great. If you want to fill a huge auditorium, better to go with a head and cabinet.

Buying Tip
(The local stores will hate me for giving you this advice.) Once you have tried an amplifier or to know what you want, you can mostly get offers much better in music stores online. Why? Because they have less overhead and have the buying power of volume that even the largest retailers can not match.
