Amplifiers used by Jack White on Elephant
Silvertone Sears 6x10 100-Watt Combo Amp
Jack White used a mid ’60s Silvertone 1485 tube head and a 6x10 Silvertone speaker cab combo during the first three White Stripes albums.
In this article from Vintage Guitar, it says:
In recent years, the Selmer brand has started to get some of the attention it deserves, partly because of skyrocketing Vox and Marshall prices and collectibility, partly in the wake of Jack White’s use of a Selmer Zodiac 30 to record the White Stripes’ Elephant album, and partly because people have finally realized just how cool these amps are.
