Looks like it could be a tweed Super?

Sorry this does not answer your specific question but it is a good discussion regarding Sean’s amps.

Thanks Tonar, actually it does answer the question, sort of. Towards the bottom of the Gear Page discussion there is a photo of him at a gig with a Gibson amp, looks to be the same amp as in the dim San Hozay clip I posted. Thanks for the link.

Now, which Gibson could that be?

Thanks for any info!

Looks like a 2X12 doesn't it? If so, then I'd say a low powered Twin of some flavor...

In your .mp3 or in the OP's video?

I see, you're answering a different post.

bern1, I think the amp is a Gibson GA200 Rhythm King.... you can see it here:

Here's a page with some specs...

GA-200 Rhythm King: 2-12AX7, 12AY7, 2-6BJ8, 2-6SK7, 6V6, 2-6550, GZ34

That's the amp he was playing when I saw him in Dallas and recorded that Jump For Joy mp3 that MapleFlame linked too. That was a good memory, thanks MF!

Great, thanks all for the info! Looks like 2x12? Killer sound, but then again he would have made any amp sound great!
