Anybody know what kind of tubes he used in his rigs?

I'm talking the rigs that gave him that really warm, fat, squishy sound that made his tone famous. You know what I'm talking about. I'm not sure if it was the Mark III rig or the CAE/power amp rig that yielded this tone.

I've got a Mesa Mark III that might be in for some new power tubes tubes soon. so that's why I ask.

It was everything he had that made his tone unique. His pickups,guitar,amp,pedals and speakers. There was a talk on the Ross compressor as a main factor as well. Here's a diagram that was up sometime back.
