Over the years, Jerry sounded like himself, and great, using a variety of guitars and amps. Few will argue with this. Where it can get contentious is suggesting so can you and I.
Absolutely on the guitars (his tone was even immediately recognizable on an L-5!).
But a lot of amps? As far as I know (and I'm always eager to learn more!) he started with the Warlocks on a Twin, then added a few Twins, then - except for his brief foray into Mesa-land and the notorious Bear/ T. Scully "Owsleystein" system - - it was 2 Twin pre-amps (one black, one silver) driving one of a series of Macs, into Alembic/Hard Truckers cabs (at least with the Dead; I have an embarrassing dearth of knowledge on his side-band gear).
