Trying to Identify The Amps in This Photo

[jeffb]

The shapes of the logo look like a Trombone, Sax, etc..

I thought it might be a Stramp (which would be ironic), but their logo was pretty basic.

I found this cool photo of SuperTramp in 1970 at the Isle of Wight Festival. I’ve been dying to know for a long time what amp stacks they were using during this time…..
If any of you pros know or have an idea, it’s greatly appreciated…

Welcome to the forum!

Cmon @Dogs of Doom ...you know what this amp/bass rig is?

can't say I do... also, a search comes up empty...

It definitely looks like axis, axxis, or even xxis... depending if the double cross on the x, makes it a double x, or not...

I want to say it's some offshoot of WEM, and I base that on absolutely nothing..

That one in the middle there looks like a WEM. Where I've drawn the arrow. Not sure what the orange amps are though...

Interesting! I think I remember reading an interview where Jimmy Page said he used an Axis amp for the studio recording of "Since I've been loving you" in late 1969 or early 1970. He said it was sitting in the hallway of the studio, (Olympic, or Island studios) and he borrowed it for that track...
