To me it looks like a stiletto. but does not have the sonic characteristics of that amp. It make me think it was modded for him, hence why his signature and custom color scheme is plastered all over the amp.

James had the same style amp head in a different color at a Sharks game also.

Hard to tell but maybe a modded trem o verb of some sort. Whatever it is it looks pretty cool and Hammitt did a nice job there!

That front panel definitely looks identical to a stiletto.
