needs some technical improvements e.g. ohmage = impedance

I reworked the structure of the page, most notably moving the information about different types of amps to the top. I think it improves the flow of the article, because it gives readers the general information about what you can buy, before it gets into the "What Makes a Good Amp?" section. --NickPenguin 21:24, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

"Solid State While it is debatable when solid state amps became most popular, typically it is associated with a hard rock sound. Some attribute this to Eddie Van Helen and his modified Marshall, which allow him to have more gain, and deliver a more in-your-face tone and volume when overdriven."

Are you crazy? EVH isn't ss sound! And hard rock/heavy metal are strictly TUBE sounds!!! Stop this bullshit.
