Marc Perlman's Amplifiers
Used for the "harder-edged Americana songs" on XOXO, as stated by engineer Nick Tveitbakk in this October 28, 2020 Mix Online interview.
Perlman’s bass went through an Ampeg B15 for harder-edged Americana songs and through an Ampeg SVT amp for softer tunes. “That was compressed with an LA2A. All the drums and bass went through Neve mic pres,” he explains. “We have 1064, 1081 1073, 1084—a large variety of those.”

The equipment list for Pachyderm Studios simply lists an "Ampeg SVT Vintage", without specifiying the model. However, this 2017 photo from inside the studio (from this May 31, 2017 imgur album) shows an original SVT. It notably has a replacement faceplate, ambiguating whether not it is a blue line or a black line. Yet, the blue logo on the faceplate suggests that the original color scheme was the blue line.
