Anybody know what gear the Stones were using to get their snarling guitar sounds on the Some Girls Album?

Keef and Ronnie were both heavy into Boogie MKI's then, at least live.

Had Keef stopped using Ampeg's at this point?

95% of the guitar on that album is Mick and Ronnie. Except for Beast of Burden and Before They Make Me Run obviously. Keith was in the process of replacing heroin with alcohol. Or so they say...

...and cocaine.
Don't forget the phase shifter.

I always thought the phaser was the crucial element on that album, and to my ears most phasers completely overwhelm the tone of an amp.

Yeah the phaser is all over that album - so what guitars and amps (Boogie MkI?)
