In the mid-70s, Rory switched from using his Dallas Rangemaster to a Hawk Booster with his Fender Tweed amps. The effect was first introduced in 1973.
"I'm fortunate enough to have a couple of the old Fender tweed-covered amps - a Bassman and a Concert. I use them with a Hawk Booster, which was made by Di Marzio before he got into the pick-up business."
- Rory Gallagher, Kerrang magazine, February 1985.
"Up until recently I was using a Hawk II, a small battery-operated treble and bass boost with three little graphic things on it which was quite handy, but with all these gadgets you always end up with slight noise from lights and so on, so I used to wrap that in tin foil"
-Rory Gallagher
