In this video, Joe Bonamassa tells Jake Andrews at 12:37:

Here's one that's my secret weapon in the studio. Do you know what this is? 1956 Forrest White amp. It's a White. Forrest White was one of the founding fathers of Fender, along with Don Randall. In '55 and '56, Leo [Fender], was nice enough and made Forrest White an off-brand, so there's these White amps. What this is is nothing but a Fender Princeton. It's got an eight-inch speaker and a slightly wider box, volume, tone, and a different aesthetic. It's a Fender amp.

And the thing about this amp, I bring it to the studio and I was doing a track for Canned Heat about a year ago with Jimmy Vivino and my guy Rick Gould was like "Why are you bringing that?" And I said "Trust me." There's something about a healthy tweed amp, and some of them have an extra 5%, an extra bottom-end push. Maybe it's the condition of the tubes or something. Not all of them have it. I find that especially with amps with eight inch speakers, if you get the right one, they are devastatingly effective in the studio and they just fit in the track.
