In brief, he’s running two Lifeson TriAmp MKII heads and one programmable H&K metal amp called the Coreblade (sounds like a ’90s SciFi novel). The Coreblade appears to have replaced the H&L Switchblades that were in his Snakes and Arrows rig.

I like their new work a lot. I missed hearing the great guitar tone, because I just didn't care for when they were experimenting with all of those different sounds. Not that its a bad thing, its just that they set a new standard during the 70's that's hard to beat, even for them I guess at times. But the new work is pretty damn cool. I love Alex's distortion. I think having a tone that sounds clean when you play soft, but can be sharp and grinding when you play heavier is sweet. A Paul with a tremolo! always wanted to do that. I like their new work a lot.

I know, because I own one. The speakers in the signature 4×12 cabinet for the Triamp MkII ALSE are G12M Greenbacks, not V30's. I know, because I own one.
