It's what on the inside that counts

It's what on the inside that counts, originally uploaded by billselak.

Here's the inside of my guitar amp. If you haven't seen inside a tube amp before, here you go. If you don't know, there are two types of amps--solid state and tube. Solid state uses electronics to add color to the guitar sound; with tube amps, the sound passes through the tubes. The sound is richer, deeper, fatter, guitar-ier. btw, I almost burned my hand reaching in to take this (the tubes get really, really hot).
