Three of his Rangemasters were sold. One in the main auction, and two in the online auction the next day. There’s a fourth somewhere that appears in photos of his gear but wasn’t in the auction.

One thing I noticed on his Vox AC30 he was using Fane Crescendo speakers (See 3:07 in the video). He may have been playing with a mismatch in terms of resistance...

I vaguely remember reading somewhere he used unusual tubes too -- can't remember details. Maybe EL83s instead of 84s cos he got a box of them cheap?
Anyone rememebr that?
