what amp is used here?

[Long Distance Call]

It looks to me to be an early white Fender Twin Amp. I used to own a Twin like that and I still have an early Brown Super Amp and that's what the Vibrato sounds like.

I'm also thinking he's using some sort of overdrive pedal. They aren't playing that loud and those Twins stay really clean until it's way loud.

thanks for your input LDC, maybe i will do a scaled down version of the power amp, 'only' two 6L6s, hahaha, i dont need no 100W anything, hmmm maybe a microwave, toast up my popcorns real fast! hahaha

61 Brownface Twin -- I think played on the vibrato channel with the vibrato engaged. In the Waits Letterman video there appears to be something on top of the amp which might be a pedal but not sure. The switch by his foot is the vibrato switch.

The white early Bandmaster heads sound similar.

There were actually two versions of the White Twin, with a bit different tone control designs. The 6G8 had more of a Baxandal design and the 6G8-A is more like the normal channel of the 6G6-B Bassman which evolved into the Blackface era tone controls.

Here's a link to the 6G8-A

For a 2-6L6 idea, check out the Super 6G4-A:

Maybe something like a 6G4-A Super in a 2-12 cab instead of 2-10's might be fun...

great info, thanks Jeff!! watching the rig rundown right now

[jeffhorrigan]

Seems the fender looking switcher on stage with him might be used to engage a pedal and not necessarily the amp vibrato (which seems to be on the whole time.)
