Hi,
We have been discussing this amp elsewhere. It does not seem to match any of the known Hiwatts David Gilmour has. My dad and I think the Hiwatt logo is sculpted, not flat, and we have tried to recreate the effect as seen with ny amp and cannot get the same reflections or anything like it. What do the experts think?

I don't see any issues with it.
It is just the stage lighting playing tricks.

OK thanks, just asking in case there was some rare Hiwatts with special logos. :D

I agree with Dr.H. If you look carefully, the 'CUSTOM HIWATT 100' text also looks a bit 3-D.

By careful watching of the Blue ray DVD of the stratpack, there is a bit where DG moves across the stage and blocks out the spot, and the image normalises. So mystery solved. It's the Gilmour gear forum obviously, we were trying to figure out which of his Hiwatts he was using that night. Need to get out more, yup we do. :shock:
