I was incorrect about this submission! It is an emperor cab, not a custom mesa cab.
During the 2008 Warped Tour performance by Bring Me The Horizon, guitarist Curtis Ward can be observed utilizing an Emperor Birch 4x12 Cabinet. This detail is confirmed through a visual proof in a video provided by 2ZERO8 EuroWerks on YouTube, titled "Bring Me The Horizon - (I used to make out with) medusa," showcasing both Ward and fellow band member Lee playing with Krank amplifier heads (Rev1 & Krankenstein) coupled with custom Emperor Cabinets.
The evidence confirming Curtis Ward's use of the Krank Revolution 1 + 120-watt Head is captured in a photograph from the 2008 Warped Tour. This photo distinctly shows Ward employing the Krank Revolution Head during his performance. It is important to clarify that, despite previous assertions that Ward used the Krankenstein model, this image conclusively verifies it was, in fact, the Revolution model. Notably, Lee Malia is identified as the user of the Krankenstein model.
