    Here is a a question for any of the guitar players out there....

    Did anyone notice that 2 Bags was sportin' some new amps on this last tour? He is now playing custom amps from Splawn (know for the Eddie Van Halen sound). Sounded great, especially when playing 6 More Miles and Take Her Back.

    Just wondering if anyone knows anything about them, or why the deviation from the old Marshalls.

    I agree! I love his rig set-up and it is classic sounding - perfect for Social D.

    to be honest with you, i've never seen or heard of those amps before. Sorry I cant help more. They sound like marshall Plexi's to me with a different nameplate on them. Probabably modified old Marshalls with a circuit or 2 changed out. thats my best guess. i play my Fender Twin Reverb almost exclusively now so I just don't pay much attention.

    Thanks to all for the feedback. Good info.

    I agree with Wolfpits that they are basically hotrodded Plexi's. Badass sounding.

    Jonny could play a shoe and make rock.

    See you all further on up the road.

    -PBR
