    Obviously 3 fender amps, two of the same on the outside, and a bigger one in the middle. I'm geussing Fender Hot Rod Deluxes (re-issue's or originals are the only ones with tweed, my geuss is re-issue) and then the middle im geussing is a 57-twin re-issue. its has teh slightly larger dimensions due to the additional speaker, and is aproxx. scaled liek that beside a deluxe. it is 100% an ebow, and his "telecaster" i bet is schecter....just a geuss though...Hey- this set up sounds alot like pete townshend? go figure....


    I'm certain those weren't Hot Rod Deluxes. The two on the outside were probably vintage Fender Deluxes (distinct from the Hot Rod Deluxe), which from 1955-1960 had the narrow-panel front and were tweed-covered. The center amp looks to me like a 2x12 combo, which indicates a tweed Twin, either an original 55-60 or a recent reissue. It is also possible that the amps were newer clones and not vintage models, like Clark or Victoria. But on the '05 tour, Ed was using a pair of vintage Fender Deluxes, so I imagine those two amps are the same.

    Additionally, the Hot Rod series has been available in black tolex, and in limited runs of laquered wood and sunburst wood, but not in tweed. The Blues-series amps were offered in tweed, and are similar but not identical amps to the Hot Rod series. The Blues amps were modeled after the look of the narrow-panel tweed amps of the late 50's, so it's not a bad guess.

    I also got a look at the Teles with P-90's in the neck position last year, and they are Fender-made with an aftermarket pickup swap.
    ...and if you don't like it, you can suck on an egg.
