"The Fender combos on each side are used as monitors."

In this video from Fender, he discusses Fender guitars and this model in particular, American Vintage '65 Stratocaster.

“The Silver Sky is my favourite,” says Whitford. “That’s the one that I sit around and play more than any other. I love the way it feels. To me, he’s taken the Stratocaster but he hasn’t just stuck a different headstock on it. He’s come with all these modern views about how to use the idea of this instrument, and evolve the body, the neck and that sort of thing. It’s Strat-like in its sound, yeah, but it’s not a Strat. It’s kind of created this whole new family of sounds. “I play it every night. I could literally play the whole show with it if I wanted to. But I’ve got all these other pretty guitars that I like to show off.”

"We were kind of replicating personality-wise some of the stuff we did in the '70s. I used to have a '68 Les Paul goldtop P-90 guitar that ended up going by the wayside. I've looked all over to try to find a substitute, and I managed to find another one up in Boston. That guitar was a real go-to for the album."
