Article: Types of Amps
There are four main types of amps - Solid state (or analog), Modeling, Tube, and Hybrids. Acoustic amps also exist.
Solid State use transistors instead of tubes for their preamps. Solid state amps are reliable and have a clear sound.
Modeling amps use a digital processor that is capable of simulating old fashioned tube amps. These amps usually have built in amp emulation that can allow you to choose a '57 Fender and add digital effects. You can program in your own tones to manipulate your music.
Tube amps A lot of guitarists prefer tube amps. They have a "cleaner" sound and a unique feel that can not be duplicated by solid state amps. The distortion created by tube amps is created by overloading the preamp. Tube amps are more natural sounding amps.
Hybrid amps Hybrid amps are a combination of a tube amp and a solid state amp.
