thanks for the comments, I hope there are still some out there who have video proof of those awkward

moments.
The guitarists are pros and they are very good, the clip is the middle of an impromptu jam (everyone was pointing at each other to take a lead)... their actual set was amazing.
Foxworthy925 - I play the CB-105 through a Baggs Paracoustic DI direct to the PA, listening through the monitors. The strings are TI Jazz Flats

... and I agree the tone is actually good. I was looking for an upright type of sound.
