also curious about what the yellow cable is plugged into at the top of the lower rack. it appears to be a fan/vent cover (a la this) -- but if that's the case, why would there be an input?

It looks like a rack drawer with a switch on it. This is doing my head in now too. I must know.

Can someone go to Zuzus and ask Boz himself?

it looks to be 6U

There's lots of computer companies that make them - they're found in server racks.

it’s a Juice Goose Model 12 voltage regulator

They provided AC line isolation against surges and high frequency interference as well as voltage regulation to 120 VAC output.

That Ibanez is a Talman, right?

Custom Talman they made for him, with those fretboard-stars and a different body/neck. I think it's a short-scale, he used it on 1979 during the MCIS tour.

All that gear just to play guitar like a sloppy mess.

You know gear Billy really needs? A metronome and a tape recorder to check his time feel against. Bald idiot.
