Hadn't seen that one, but I remember the song from the album. Good one!
Thanks for posting it, Eddie!

Chet could make that Epiphone Gent sing.

Wow. What's the story behind Chet and the Epiphone? Was it some sort of suped up model or just a regular old cheaper one?

I think it was a stock one. I think I heard that the neck was broken on the flight and someone fixed it before he the concert.

It was less flashy than the Gibson Gent. It didn't originally come with a Bigsby, had a volume and Tone Knob, toggle switch in the lower bout, and chrome hardware.
Chet customized his with a Bigsby and Gibson chrome pickups. You can tell they are Gibson pickups by the sound. Epiphone pickups don't sound like that.
Here's Chet with the Epiphone. I'd also loved to know whatever happen to the strat Paul played in this video, I always though it was a pretty colored strat.

I didn't realize that this videos audio was garbled at the end....I'll have to re-upload it in a better quality. There's another one I need to upload with him and Paul from this same show. Paul does a really good lead part.
