TEXAS TONE AMPLIFIERS

You want your amp to not only sound great, but to last a lifetime. Texas Tone® Amps are built for tone, and built to last, using the high-quality components and military-grade built techniques. Components are selected for low noise, tight tolerance, high temperature, and long life. Because of this, we shy away from low cost, high noise, and any components known to be troublesome... Resistors: We use low-noise carbon film, metal film, metal oxide, and/or MIL-Spec resistors, depending upon their function in the circuit. These are typically 1% or 2% tolerance, don't add noise to you amp, and hold their ratings over time and temperature better than commonly used carbon composition resistors, which are noisy, 10% tolerance, and drift over time. Leo Fender used carbon comp, because that's what he could get in the 1950s and early 1960s. Resistor technology has improved since then. We also make generous use of 1-Watt resistors, rather than the common 1/2-Watt resistors in most amps, for..
