I have just received my new Vox Amplifiers "The JMI Years" Book it is 682 pages of first class reading and so full of information . I would recommend this book to anyone plus I see there is a website that you can click on to where they are adding updates all the time , Talk about bed time reading you won`t want to turn the light out.

The only trouble is that this book is so big and heavy, that it's not very practical for bed reading !

I ordered it on January 4th and I have received it this week. Very interesting to read.
It`s big and heavy like a bible - the "JMI Bible" - would be a suitably name for the book.
Lots of interesting pics and stuff to read. There are shown and described VOX
amps I`d never heard about or seen.
Very positiv is the part in the book about the Shadows and Beatles and other bands
using JMI amps.

Dave, this book is a
MUST for all VOX players and fans of VOX amps. Grate pics and
stories about JMI users in the 60`s ( Shadows and Beatles gear ........... ) and many more.
The book contains a lot of facts about JMI amps I`ve never heard and seen before.
