Anyone know what kind of gear Nicholaus Arson of The Hives uses? Thanks.

woah. strange. cause i just bought their new dvd and the amps are clearly not orange amps. in fact one looked almost like a hi-watt. thanks for the pics!

Those pictures must be really old. They use a whole backline of Hi-Watt and has done so the latest years.
I've seen them several times and it's always the same Hi-watts.

Yep, nowadays they use Hiwatt Amps (both guitarists + bassplayer).

But there's one shot in the Live-DVD where you can see that there are other amps behind those hiwatt-combos. Can't really recognize them, but they seem to be some kind of Fender Silverface amp.
Dr Matt Destruction has a 70s SVT head behind his Hiwatt Stack.

maybe just backup-amps, maybe not.
