Kenny Vaughn and Big Jo

Went to the Marty Stuart show last Sat.
From my vantage point it appeared that guitarist Kenny Vaughn was playing thru a Big Jo amp, w/crimson red Tolex.
Looked like a 2-12.
I've never heard of a Big Jo and I can't find anything on the Web.

Sorry, never heard of Big Jo amps either. I have heard of Kenny Vaughan. Was he playing his pink Strat? That's the guitar he played when we were punky new-wavers ages ago in Denver. Somehow we both ended up playing C&W. He was a great player back then. Haven't heard much from him lately. I guess from your post he must have sounded pretty good through that amp.

I just opened for him Saturday night. Kenny used a Fender Deluxe with that big red bottom.<FONT SIZE=1 COLOR="#8e236b"><p align=CENTER>[This message was edited by Kevin Hatton on 03 May 2004 at 11:23 AM.]</p></FONT>

Tim, he was playing the tricked out light green Tele, the same one he had on the Opry a while back.
Great picking and a fungi too.

Kevin, I wondered if I was looking at a speaker cabinet rather than an amp.
Now I know, thanks.
Great show, highly recommended.
