I'm pretty sure that's a P. Dig Stevie's Sesame jam coda!

I couldn't tell ya. He's way in the back...

and it never pans low enough to show the whole P pickguard and pup, but there's no neck j in there, so I do think it's a P. Plus the tone.

What a killer setup overall, though. I'd *love* to put my rhodes through an Orange amp! I really think that I should work on my LH piano skills so that I can lay down good synth and rhodes basslines in my studio.

yw. We don't have a TV here in the Standalone house, so sometimes my three year old and I check out cool vintage Sesame Street stuff after dinner.

not really bass related, but still funky vintage S.S.

Man, that is just incredible. You get the feeling they could have jammed on that forever.
The kids in the background look a little tired towards the end, but that one kid in the red is just freakin' out the whole time. Dang!

Thanks, MuzikMan.

Edit: watched a second time and it's extra clear that it's a P...

and he substitutes "you have to sing sesame street songs" for the word "suffer..." heh.

Saw Stevie and Nate Watts last week in Toronto. Be sure to catch the tour. 3 hours non-stop of the best of Stevie and a whole lot more.
