In my case, it's regret.
I started soldering things around age 12.  Never had any training. 
Don't know much of what I should, but will try to fix anything I can.

At 41, I once again feel the lure of electronics.  Not that it ever
left, but why not sit down and give it a better go this time?  Since I
use only tube amps for my guitars and have a few BA's, this is a good
place to start.

But you're correct - when I say tubes, I always get funny looks.


To hell with them - there are more left for US  :)


A great percentage of currently manufactured guitar amps use tubes and
that will not change for a while.  There are a ton of companies building
devices for `tube tone' but they haven't succeeded as yet.
