A Brief History of Guitar Amplification

For years music has been discovered by wandering into a venue or a club and seeing someone play for the first time on a dimly lit smoky stage. This someone wandering into the venue just happens to be someone from a record company who just happens to see that person play and the rest is history. We've seen countless movies with this beginning. Musicians like Johnny Cash, Elvis and Etta James making it big on a lucky break and being given the opportunity to sing for someone with money and an ear for talent. From there these musicians would tour the country hoping that they would gain a following.
