Glenn Tipton's Amplifiers
Glenn can be seen clearly through this video playing a Crate BV120H
He can be seen playing through this amp at 0:16, and 0:40. A common misconception many have is that his JCM800 was a JCM800 2203, but it isn't true. His JCM800 was a JCM800 1959 Mk II Super Lead. Notice the JCM800 amps in this video, they have 4-inputs.
"I have a vast array of amps that I use and always spend a lot of time experimenting with different sounds. Each song you work on may need a different approach and I have ENGL amps and cabs, Marshall amps and cabs, Line 6 heads and combos, Mesa's, Crates and various combos including VOX AC 30's and Cornell's. They all have a use and mic'd up in the right way all can sound good as long as they provide what the track needs."

"I have almost exclusively used Marshall amps, but now I also use ENGL amps for stage work. I used Regular Vintage 50 and 100 Watt Marshall heads without a master volume until 1982, when the JCM 800 head was developed. I then used the JCM 800 with Rocktron pre amps as well. Currently I use one of three or four racks which include ENGL pre and power amps, Marshall 9100 poweramps and cabs with the addition ENGL backless cabs."
