Troy Van Leeuwen's Combo Guitar Amplifiers

Talking about his amp setup at 4:49, "They're both hand-wired AC30s. They are Tolexed in bronco red because all our amps are Tolexed in bronco red right now. I use those because they're new and I think I've had one go down on me in the last six years."

Mentioned in this June 25, 2012 Fender interview.

Well, I use anything and everything. On records, there’s nothing sacred. We’ll take a speaker and then break it specifically, and mic it with the mic against the floor instead of on the speaker. There are really no rules. It’s funny because I just discovered this Fender Excelsior amp. It’s a typical amp that you would find in the Queens recording session – something that has got low watts and is kind of funky. Like an old Teisco amp or something that is made in Japan, and that nobody wants anymore. So that’s why I liked playing through the Excelsior. It kind of reminds me of how we do things. Plus, it looks vintage, almost like a suitcase.
