Major talent! Some people can just make it look so effortless. Such a unique playing style too. And that lefty Fender Esquire! :shock: I even love the thumb pick wear in the finish.

I listened to both clips through headphones. The recording quality, especially on that first earlier live clip, is absolutely remarkable. Makes you wonder why so many artists sound like crap on live TV. SNL's a notoriously awful venue/mix, IMO.

The guy behind her in the old clip is playing a really unusual Rickenbacker that I've never seen before. It looks like a Capri prototype. I hope those people hung on to their now valuable instruments!
