"I bought my first Gibson ES-345 and two fender twin reverbs from Sherman & Clay in San Francisco. That was the first time I bought something on time and started to establish my credit, such as it was. Electric guitars took a back seat to pianos, brass, woodwinds and violins at Sherman and Clay".
In this picture above Jefferson Airplane perform on stage at the Webster Hall concert venue, New York on January 8th, 1967. One can see Jorma plays through two Fender Twin Reverbs (vibrato channels). It was barely noticable in the b&w image. Still, they are the Blackface era Twins, I colorized the picture, take a closer look.
In his autobiographical book he states: "Around the time of Pillow I was transitioning from the Guild Thunderbird guitar and the Standel amp to the Gibson and two Fender Twin Reverbs, but I was still waffling between two setups. The solos on "White Rabbit" and "Somebody to Love" were done with the Thunderbird and the Standel (minus the horns [he had added an upholstered box from Kustom with two high-frequency horns]). Saturating the sound with spring reverb was the deal. The other tracks were done with the Twins and the ES-345 Stereo".
