(Butler, PA) Butler County Community College Associate Professor Denton Dailey recently published his seventh textbook entitled "Electronics for Guitarists." Dailey teaches in the Science and Technology Division at BC3.
The first edition, hard cover textbook is 304 pages and was recently published by Springer.
"Electronics for Guitarists" explains the fundamental principles of transistors and the operation of integrated circuit and vacuum tube-based amplifiers. The material teaches the basic theory of operation and design principles of analog guitar signal processing circuits and amplifiers.
"This is a book for guitarists that are fairly serious about learning how effects and amps work," said Dailey. "There are plenty of books out there that will give you a nice overview of what's happening in effects and amp circuits, but if you want something you can really sink your teeth into, this is the book for you."
The textbook is written for guitarists, musicians interested in analog signal processing, electronics hobbyists, technologists, and engineers that are interested in guitar and music related applications.
Dailey has previously published six textbooks including Programmable Logic Fundamentals, Electronic Devices and Circuits: Discrete and Integrated, Operational Amplifiers and Linear Integrated Circuits, Laboratory Manual to Accompany Operational Amplifiers and Linear ICs, Small Computer Theory and Applications, and the Laboratory Manual to Accompany Small Computer Theory and Applications.
