I just got finished looking at the video on Capitol Records Nashville website. They had a reduced quality video in it's entirety. I saw a Blue 3x12 rig and 2x12 K100 Silver. I'm not 100% sure because, as usual, the focus of the video was not the most photogenic. But it was definitely Blue and Silver.

I really think the Kustom banner will have to be held high by us, the lowly man on the street. I don't think any Kustom, especially vintage gear, will be seen on stage at any major concert. Maybe the new combo's might. They aren't too bad. I played on one a couple of weeks ago, but with the bigboys, the show is the thing. Even Sheryl Crow was using the Chinese Kustom T&R. But the last time I saw her, she had generic (Marshall, etc) gear. The last bastian of Kustom, John Fogerty used his Kustom for 2 songs on his tour of a few years ago, but not when I saw him recently on his new album tour. It was fun when he told the story of his amp and guitar and played the amp as much as his guitar. He used the amp for "I've got a spell on you" and one other which I can't remember, with his Rickenbacker and the feedback he produced was just stellar. But I think it is up to us to keep those sparkly colors and black in out little corner of the world and hold the banner for Bud ourselves.

Nope I was wrong, well partially. The rigs are both K200's The Blue is 3x12 and the Silver is 2x15. I looked closer at the ports and they are the same diameter and the heads are the same width. But the height of the 3x12 is not as tall as a 3x15. But I still contend it's a good visual.

I went to a Bleach (not a big fan but had tickets) concert a few years ago and I was checking out the back line and their lead guitarist had a orange 4x12 cabinet and orange head and there sat on top a kustom K250 black and you can see it on their music video super good feeling on the WOW 2000 music video silver disk
