with many details of the festival itself, which was in Rome in May 1968.  In an article on the site, it is mentioned that all the equipment was rented;  it is hard to tell if this referred to the sound tech’s equipment, or everything including the amps,  but a whole wall of Vox hybrid amps was used it seems by many of the bands.
