Every band in the world has the necessity to promote itself. If the band is the main activity of the components, plays a popular genre, is willing to play several days per week and to travel, there are chances that it can engage an agent that promotes it. But what if you play just for passion dedicating only a little time to it, are willing to play just a few days per month and not so far away from home? Well, it’s quite sure that you have to promote your band by yourself

This article was born from my real life experience. I play in a 5 kidult elements band in Italy just for passion and it is not the main activity for us, the dedicated time is limited and therefore we would like to play 1/2 times per month maximum and nearby our homes.

Eppure, nonostante la loro importanza, nella mente del chitarrista medio le valvole sono avvolte in un’aura misteriosa. In effetti, negli anni un’intera mitologia (in parte reale, in parte pura fantasia!) è stata costruita attorno a questi enigmatici componenti elettronici.  Con questo articolo, il primo di una serie su questo soggetto, speriamo di fare un po’ di luce sulla così tanto equivocata valvola. Cominceremo dallo spiegare qualcosa riguardo il come questi vetri incandescenti generatori di timbro lavorano – in termini ‘chitarrista amichevoli’, naturalmente!
