so im looking for advice on which book of kevin o'connors to get.
based on what u have seen me do here do you have any input on which two books i should i get and if i only get one for now which is the first one i need?

thanks for your input guys!

I will tell you which one to buy if you give me your air mile points

Japan and Guam, hum sushi

Sound like fun, need a guitar tech to tag along and change your strings?

I've got TUT2 and TUT3. From what I've heard TUT just talks about things that are gone into in detail in 2, 3 and 4. TUT2 has some nice stuff on power supply tricks and tube power amps. TUT3 goes into detail about all the "pillars of tone", the Plexi (duh), the 800, the Champ with an exellent discription of SE and Class A, the AC-30 and some others along with schematics and layouts for each one.
I'm getting TUT 4 next.
You really can't go wrong with any of his books.

YEP, also have all the Kevin O'Connor's books, and a few Weber's

London's are very nice but a little to much stuff you don't really need unless you are a freak like me....
