Trey's gone Tweed!

Anybody else notice the Tweed amp in his rig? Petty large one, I'm guessing it's a Super or Twin.

Tweeds are awesome, I'm a recent convert.

I was gonna post on here about that different amp. I don't know if it was a tweed. It looked more boutique to me. But who knows? I thought it was an amp head at first, but then realized that it is probably an amp turned on it's side and pointing towards page. I can't say if he was using a speaker in it or not (I forgot to check for any mic's on the side). But it was in place of his second speaker tower.

What new amp?

Yeah there is some kind of tweed looking amp on one side of his rack, Mesa on the opposite side.

I noticed that too when I saw them last night....first set besides Wolfman's was ehh but second set was rockin' real good..Twwweeeeeezzerrr

He also seems to have started using his tremolo (quite a bit in fact...) for more subtle textural stuff instead of just for the stutter thing. Sounded good on the floor!

After viewing the band coming on stage on a 12/28/12 vid on youtube I have come to the conclusion it is a Victoria head, but i dont know which one.

Yeah I saw that. I think he's using it for all the vibrato stuff. His CAE tremolo is bad ass but it doesn't sound as good as a tweed tremolo. T'was the Tweed that had me tweaked.

That tube Vibrato is a suitable addition to his rig for sure.

Very nice addition, I could see him relying on this amp if the Mesa ever needed heavy repairs. I wouldn't have been able to tell what amp he was using on 12/28 if it wasn't for the the built in vibrato. This and the Fender DR would be a solid combination too.

We've seen him use this before; the fact that he has brought it back out might mean he likes it. I dunno, it's really just a vibrato and nothing to get excited about.

Vibrato always gets me excited, ha

what's (a) tweed?

50's Fender amps, before the blackface era.
