The charts and carb info are great. The book explains the concepts and implications of the designs, and has many useful illustrations. For the covered carbs, the disassembly photos are superb. However, it does NOT cover the DFAV, DFEV, ICT, IDF, or DCNF carbs, which are some of the most popular. Steps necessary to determine correct jetting are not covered, which is too bad because there is great detail about the jets and how to change them.

How to Hot Rod Your Fender Amp: Modifying your Amplifier for Magical Tone Review

How to Hot Rod Your Fender Amp: Modifying your Amplifier for Magical Tone
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've been messing around with amps for over thirty years and thought I knew a fair bit about them. It turns out I knew almost nothing, and that the reason most of my modifications led to worse-sounding amps rather than better-sounding was because I kenw almost nothing. This book was worth twenty times what I paid for it just because it helped me resurrect one of my botched do-it-yourself projects from several years ago. Now instead of having a $1000 end table, I have the genuine tone monster amp I wanted in the first place.
The most amazing thing is that this book is a fun read. The author has a great sense of humor, making what could easily be a dry technical tome into an interesting book. This was quite an accomplishment.

This guidebook shows owners and dreamers the basics of getting the best sound possible out of their Fender amp with simple and advanced modifications. These include essential and fundamental tips like selecting tubes, capacitors, pots, and other electronic equipment, as well as biasing and setting up your amp. It also covers great hot-rodding enhancements to give you the tone of the pros at your fingertips, such as making one channel into an overdrive channel, modifying tone controls, making one channel either a Marshall or Vox channel (changing preamp and tone arrangement—not a permanent, destructive mod), building splitter boxes to run two amps simultaneously, creating splitter speaker setups within one amp, building the perfect gig amp (something light and portable, but with big sound, like an early Mesa Boogie), and more.

As someone who's never been too adept at science or really enjoyed it all that much, I got my first taste of sincere, scientific satisfaction when I swallowed up Sneakiest Uses. These little projects are so simple, and they work! Now I find I'm curious about the inner-workings of all kinds of things, and I'm just hoping my boyfriend doesn't catch me taking apart the microwave.

Covers parts of performance engine rebuilding not covered in basic rebuilding books. I would not recommend for a absolute beginner, but I found it to be interesting reading even though I rarely rebuild. If you are just learing get How To Rebuild Your Nissan OHC also (Book Number 1555611591). This is a must have book for anyone interested in Nissan/Datsun Z series cars but also covers other Nissan OHC engines.

I bought this book by mistake. I was looking for the "Big Twin High Performance Guide" from which this title uses a great deal of ideas.
Absolutely no technical help to do it yourself.
If you want a book with more technical information and some ideas of how to do your own tuning try the "Big Twin High Performance Guide" by D. William Denish instead.
