Music is a universal pleasure that should not be denied to anybody. So, too, is the beauty of music produced by valves. To make available to a wider audience the seductive, silky sound of the vacuum tube, PrimaLuna has developed a range of all-valve amplifiers with the construction, power and sonic performance of high-end electronics, but with one unique, inimitable feature: prices that can only be described as entry level!

    please can you provide the answer, thanks :)

    edit..I think I was correct originally...

    Clapton recommended fellow guitarist Jimmy Page as his replacement, but Page was at that time unwilling to relinquish his lucrative career as a freelance studio musician, so Page in turn recommended Clapton's successor, Jeff Beck.

    Yes me too. And according to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Yardbirds, EC didn't replace anyone -- he was in the original Yardbirds line-up. So I think the question is broken!

    Thanks to kats53 and Lilias. Sorry for my carelessness! In the Yardbirds Wiki it does actually say:

    "They made their first significant lineup addition when singer/harmonica player Keith Relf, rhythm guitarist Chris Dreja, bassist Paul Samwell-Smith and drummer Jim McCarty, replaced original lead guitarist (Anthony) Top Topham with a very boyish-looking art student named Eric Clapton in October 1963."

    My twitness, sorry!
