We've discussed before Neil Young and Fender amps, but it's well known he is a Les Paul guy.
I found a few pictures of Neil playing a few Fenders too...Pretty cool! Amp porn in there too.

That bottom photo looks like he's a cross between David Gilmour and Jack Nicholson when he did "The Shining." It's kind of strange to see him hold a Tele, since I'm so used to seeing him with the black Gibson.

Any solid-body electric in Neil's hands looks weird to me -- I grew up with him playing a White Falcon or a Martin D45. And frankly, I think he sounded a whole lot better back then.

:wink:

I do really dig those White Falcons. When I saw CSNY in 2000 and 2002, He and Stills brought them old White Falcons out...really cool to see. I was hoping you'd chime in about those 2 amps in the 4th picture.

The cabs looks small, likely a 2 x 10 configuration. I'd guess they're Tremolux heads.

Neil loves 'Old Black' though. :wink:
