Paul Weller

In a live performance of "Eton Rifles" from 1979, Paul Weller is seen using a Peavey Backstage 30 amplifier. Although Marshalls are visible in the background, Weller personally confirmed on a fan forum that he used the Peavey Backstage 30 for the lead parts on "All Mod Cons" and extensively on "Setting Sons." It appears to have also been used on "Going Underground."

According to the Paul Weller artist page on Marshall's Official Site Paul played with a 1987X-PW.

Can you give me a run down of the guitars and amps you are currently using? I use a 1968 Marshall Bluesbreaker which has a totally different sound to the re-issued models you can get now. My volume is only ever on number two otherwise its like 'blaaah!' I've got two Bluesbreakers actually. I've also got a Vox Supreme that I use on stage. I have a box that lets me switch between the two for the variance in sound. Its got the mid boost on it and also distortion and vibrato and stuff. With guitars, I tend to make the most of my Epiphone Casino, which is a 1966 model.

In a 1981 photo from Rockarchive, Paul Weller of The Jam is shown using the Vox V125 Lead Stack, which includes the V125 Lead amp head and VR212 2x12 Enclosure. This amplifier, an evolution of the Vox AC-120 introduced in 1973, features a combination of transistors and tubes, including two 2N3819 transistors and a tube complement of ECC83, ECC82, ECC81, and EL-34s. Unlike its predecessor, the V125 does not include a reverb circuit. Designed with Gain, Volume, Master Volume controls, and a five-band EQ, the V125 offers a tonal range similar to Marshall amps of the same era. The amplifier's cabinet houses two 12-inch, 80-watt Celestion speakers and is covered in Vox's traditional black basket weave vinyl, characteristic of the Rose Morris era from 1979 to 1992.

At the Marshall amplifier factory in Milton Keynes, there's a small museum piled high with musty, well-used equipment. There are original models of the 100-watt amps favoured by Jimi Hendrix and Eric Clapton. There's a white leather model made for Paul Weller with a mod target emblazoned across its front.
