In this YouTube video, Brian Aubert gives a rundown of his gear. At 11:54, Chris Kies asks about the strings on the amp. He says, "I guess I use these!" while holding up a pack of Beefy Slinkys. He then says, "Sometimes I use these, but what's the purple ones?" Chris replies, "I think those are just the regular ones." Then Brian says, "I think i use these and the regular Slinkys." He was sure of the color, but not the type. Also, the Power Slinkys are closer in guage to the Beefys. Both arguments point to him using the Power Slinkys.

At 16:38 in the Silversun Pickups Rig Rundown, Aubert mentions that before he swapped to a Fractal rig (which he has continued to use), he would occasionally plug a Fender Champ that was modified into a head into a 4x12 to play alongside his larger amps. It’s unknown if this was a Tweed Champ or a later Black/Silver Champ, all that’s known is that it was turned into a head and plugged into a larger speaker cabinet.
