I think he plays whatever he wants, especially now. He does play the Sire though.

I saw him here in Houston last Sunday and it was great! The Sterling was indeed a lined fretless. The drummer was Charles Haynes.

Look closely at the string retainer. The G-string isn't tucked underneath it as it should be.

And here's little nugget from the Fender site: Invalid Link Removed Zoom in on that head-stock. It looks like the G-string doesn't need to be retained. ;-) I still love my Fenders...
