    According to this Music Radar [article](http://www.musicradar.com/us/news/guitars/rory-gallaghers-gear-the-key-guitars-amps-and-effects-546815/13), "With the addition of Lou Martin on keyboards to Rory’s band in 1973, the guitarist looked for an amp that would work better within the group’s fuller sound and began to favour Fender combos, such as this Fender Twin, which became a studio favourite. The amp has a very early serial number (0070), so Rory was cautious about taking it on the road." It also mentions that this amp was used on the albums Tattoo and Blueprint.

    “In my extensive collection of about fifteen amps I’ve got a 1950s and a 1960s Fender Twin; an Ampeg Reverb; a 1950s Fender Tweed and some old AC30s. But the AD30 can produce all of those vintage sounds partly because I can drive it without going incredibly loud.”
