I remember when I was a teen also hearing that Fogerty was using other amps..fenders etc in the studio...and understandable...volume levels, what was available when traveling to a remote studio.etc...but live..yeah...kustoms were there for real.

As for Shery Crow...we've had her here in Charlotte....and no...the kustoms are plugged in..just stacked...they were a conglomorate of 4x12s and 4x10s...new stuff..it was 2 years ago at the speedway and the kustoms were actuallly still new and the guys had to literally pull them from the cardboard boxes.
the last time I saw her on TV though it looked like she had a couple old real kustoms mixed in with the rest and the players at least had a cable running into them...course that can be for grins too cause they'd be running into a DI first anyway.
I've backlined a number of acts this year..particularly for the quickie speedway deals where its mostly tracks and the backline was for show and never even wired up...even when theband is actually playing, and we have 10 or so Marshalls stacked up...there will be only one half stack, maybe on full stack that's actually hot and mic'd..the rest are just backdrop...but I get paid the same for em all ...so I love it....but its amazing how many groups are running on top of tracks.
the drummer keeps the track in his ears and the band plays off of him..it works..just miss the days of real bands.
John the other night on A&E was defintely running wireless to the engineer for his rack of tones...man I miss the old days..
