Is that a post-Fender Rivera era amp behind Carlos. I really dig how young Neil Schon looks in the video. Thanks, for any answers:

In 1970?

Not likely. Unless it's the Santana from an alternate/parallel universe.

Arjay, What amp is that sitting on a cab behind Carlos? Doesn't look like Fender or Mesa-Boogie. Is it a one-off design?

Looks like a re-grilled silverface Twin Reverb to me with a few front-panel mods, likely performed by M-B (which is how the company began).
