I have to admit, I'm kind of old school when it comes to amplifiers and guitars. I like the simplicity and the sound of the more vintage amplifiers. It took several decades to develop a solid state guitar amp that sounds as good as a tube amp. Even now, new amps are designed with a tube in the preamp for that certain sound...

I get that. I think the change to solid state was driven a lot by cost, but before that tubes were the only option and they happened to have a good sound. I know there have been some recent innovations in tube technology, so maybe they will just keep going, but some will use digital stuff for the convenience. It's good to have all this choice.
