Daniel Donato's guitar rig is a pretty intriguing mix of modern and vintage gear, sporting a ton of effects and a single Fender tube amp. It's called "Cosmic Country", which is a new term to me, but it makes sense when you look at all the effects this guy totes around. I've done these up in Guitar Geek-style illustrations, using our pedalboard planner tool, which you can try out yourself.

A 1966 Fender Pro Reverb tube combo amp. Also, that's the EHX HumDebugger on top and Mickey Mouse for some reason.
Retail Note: The 1966 version of Donato's amp isn't available via major retailers anymore, and still rare even on the user markets.
