Some players use the more nimble tips of the fingers to play fast-moving solo passages or to pluck lightly for quiet tunes. The use of amplification allows the player to have more control over the tone of the instrument, because amplifiers have equalization controls that allow the bassist to accentuate certain frequencies ( often the bass frequencies ) while de-accentuating some frequencies ( often the high frequencies, so that there is less finger noise ).

Some aficionados who prefer class-A amplifiers also prefer the use of thermionic valve ( or " tube ") designs instead of transistors, especially in Single-ended triode output configurations for several claimed reasons:

Some musicians play electric mandolins through amplifiers.

Some audiophile equipment, such as amplifiers, continues to be point-to-point wired using terminal pins, often in very small quantities.

Some newer low-cost turntables include built-in amplifiers to produce line-level ( one volt ) outputs ; devices are available that perform this conversion for use with computers ; or older amplifiers or radio receivers can be used.

Some supplies provide analog inputs that can be used to control the output voltage, effectively turning them into high-voltage amplifiers albeit with very limited bandwidth.

Some harmonica players use these small combo amplifiers for concert performances, though, because it is easier to create natural overdrive with these lower-powered amplifiers.

Some musicians believe that tube amplifiers produce a " warmer " or more " natural " sound than solid state units.

Some amplifiers have a line out jack for connecting the amplifier's signal to a PA system or recording console or to connect the amplifier to another guitar amp.

Some companies design amplifiers that require no biasing as long as properly rated tubes are used.

Some modern amplifiers use a mixture of tube and solid-state technologies.

Some amplifiers use solid-state components in the preamp, most commonly diodes, to create distortion, a design feature known as diode clipping.

Some tube guitar amplifiers use a rectifier tube instead of solid-state diodes specifically for this reason.

Some guitar amplifiers have a tremolo control.

Some jazz guitarists, however, tend to favor the " cleaner " sound of solid-state amplifiers, preferring not to color the sound of their guitar with the tube distortion and compression so popular with rock, blues, and metal musicians .. Solid-state amplifiers vary in output power, functionality, size, price, and sound quality in a wide range, from practice amplifiers to professional models.

Some inexpensive amplifiers have only a single volume control and a one or two tone controls.

Some touring bands have used the appearance of a large array of guitar amplifiers for aesthetic reasons.

Some kinds of differential amplifier usually include several simpler differential amplifiers.

Some of us might be inclined to argue, in fact, that an independence of mind and action and an intolerance of regimentation, either mental or physical, are particularly Southern traits.

Some years ago Julian Huxley proposed to an audience made up of members of the British Association for the Advancement of Science that `` man's supernormal or extra-sensory faculties are ( now ) in the same case as were his mathematical faculties during the ice age ''.

Some are fishing, some driving the team, and many are sitting indolently on the banks of the river.

Some historians have found his point of view not to their taste, others have complained that he makes the Tory tradition appear `` contemptible rather than intelligible '', while a sympathetic critic has remarked that the `` intricate interplay of social dynamics and political activity of which, at times, politicians are the ignorant marionettes is not a field for the exercise of his talents ''.

Some of the marble busts in the park are of young Englishmen who fought and died for Garibaldi.

Some accounts are quite lengthy but Florida's is the shortest of all, requiring only four paragraphs.

Some plant-location specialists take these signs to mean St. Louis county doesn't want industry, and so they avoid the area, and more jobs are lost.

Some fiscal changes are important.

Some brilliant rookies nailed them down, so that this spring just two spots, left and right field, are really up for grabs.

Some of the stumps are as much as three feet long, but most of them have been flattened by the pressure of the overlying sediments.

Some privately held inholdings are a source of direct damage to these Federal lands.

Some 45 frequencies are assigned for use primarily by dominant Class 1, -- A or Class 1, -- B clear-channel stations, designed to operate with adequate power and to provide service -- both groundwave and ( at night ) skywave -- over large areas and at great distances, being protected against interference to the degree necessary to achieve this objective.

Some deductions are subtracted from Gross Income to determine Adjusted Gross Income.

Some renditions are of symphonic dimensions, with the contrabass given free rein.

Some of them are obvious, such as the fact that we associate recorded and live music with our responses and behavior in different types of environments and social settings.

Some tasty frank toppings are chili con carne, Coney Island sauce and savory sauerkraut.

Some general things to look for in a site, if you haven't already bought one, are accessibility, water drainage, and orientation.

Some distribution costs are kept up by competitive pressure, some by the fact that the customers have come to expect certain niceties and flourishes.

Some of these temperatures are plotted in figure 4.

( Some suspensions break up before they are near to the direction of shear, and some become asymptotic to it without breakup.

Some experiments are composed of repetitions of independent trials, each with two possible outcomes.

Some of these speculations may have some merit, others are somewhat ambiguous.

Some phonetic features, for example glottal catch or murmur, are sometimes to be assigned to segmental phonemics and sometimes to accentual systems.

Some are failing to achieve as much as their ability would permit ; ;
