Amplification

Amplifiers are devices that convert the weak, low volume signal from your guitar, into a larger signal. The signal is projected through a speaker system, to produce a better quality and much louder sound. A tube amp makes a full sound and will improve the tone and clarity of your sound.

Effects pedals help give your electric guitar or bass different types of sounds, which can create the uniqueness of your tone. An effects chain, or signal chain, may be formed by connecting two or more effects pedals together, which will create a more complex sound.

Strings

Strings vibrate to produce a particular musical note. Guitars usually have 6 strings, allowing them to produce pitches in low and high ranges. Lighter gauge strings are easier to play than heavier gauge strings because they require less tension.
