The electric guitarist definitely plays the amp, along with the guitar and pedals.

And when you come to see me live you hear me playing a lot of guitar and sax solos, but you don't hear as much sax and guitar on pop records anymore. It took 50 years for the sax to completely disappear from the Billboard Top 40, and it might take that long for the guitar to do the same. But then again, like most of us who play the guitar, we hope that doesn't happen.
