One of those box's runs between them and has a pot and resistor to drop the speaker + & - level down to instrument level.
The other small silver box is in fact a Krinulator ( or w/e its called ) which is just a standard D-lator w/ minor tweaks by Bill @ Two Rock. It is very small but houses alot.
T R should have sold these small Footprint D-lator boxes instead of their $1,700 ELI 2 D-lator clone (Don't want to offend anyone just stating a point is all)
He has also used a Tube Reverb/D-lator device Two rock made him along w/ all sorts of other elaborate gear .
Steve used to work @ Mesa Boogie and I think that had a great impact on his gear/tone decisions. He used to use strictly Pre and Power amps in the 80's and early 90's.
Great player none the less, no wonder why Jerry Garcia voted him one of the best UNKNOWN/UNSIGNED musicians of the early 90's.
I Dunno, hope this helps.........
That is indeed how I remember it....I walked trough the door and Steve handed me a screwdriver and had me take the back off the De Armond..to show Me the mod he had done to it to allow it to drive the Old 50 watt Dumble,
I wish we would have had time to hear the lead channel of the Dumble....The clean was to die for though!!!

Nobody listened to anything Jerry said. If they did Santana would have taken over the Grateful Dead. Jerry said Carlos would be the only person who he thought could have replaced him. Instead that horrible crap with Warren was played until ticket sales fell so badly that the remaining members had to reconsider the band.
