    Mike's sound is predominantly Marshall tube heads and Marshall cabinets. He's also got a custom-made amp head that you wouldn't really be able to replicate without buku tube amp knowledge, but older Marshall heads (up to, say, the JCM 800's) would do the trick. He was also known to use a tweed Fender Bassman amp years ago, but hasn't in recent years.

    Stone has switched between a lot of amps over the years. Marshalls are certainly up there, and he currently uses a Marshall 1974X combo paired with some sort of Fender tweed tube amp, likely a tweed Deluxe (or a clone thereof). He's used Peavey Delta Blues amps a bunch in the past, as well as Matchless.

    Ed has been pretty consistently a Hiwatt amp user for years, but recently started using a trio of Fender tweed amps, specifically a pair of Deluxes and a Twin.

    What's the general consensus of Hiwatt? I've read somewhere, probably on here, that they're pretty typecasted.

    Mike uses Bassmans through marshall 4x12s as his main touring amps. Stone's is the hot rod deville.

    Jeff painted his cabs tolex orange, but they're not the brand Orange. (Mike used an Orange (brand) cab on the 2000 tour.)

    Stone has also used a Savage Blitz 50 in the past (98 maybe?)

    I thought Jeff went to Oranges this year? Anyway, Mike destroyed his Orange during Evenflow in Detroit(by accident?) but he had another.

    When did Jeff paint his cabs? I am thinking about painting one of mine orange or light blue. Is it safe? Kind of paint?

    come to think of it i'm not sure if it's paint or orange tolex. The latter would probably make more sense i suppose :).
