I saw a couple of minutes of that last night. From what I remember MG 4001 and possibly another Ric.....

I'm watching it right now on my PVR (the Canadian "Tivo"). Bass player is using what appears to be a 70's Mapleglo 4001. Nice selection of Guilds and Gretsches as well.

saw the last tune - looked like a 70s 4001MG. Couldn't get a good enough shot to glean anything else. Sounded good!

I think the best shot of the 4001 MG from the QT Link that I included in my previous post is during the second guitar solo (towards the end) and right at the end of the song.

Regardless, the guys rock.

Yes, I saw them. They were great! I have been a fan of that show for some 30+ years! Always look forward to it.

That was a super performance. They seem to be playing it every day but that's ok by me.

Yes, I posted about it on the Ric corporate forum.

We played ACL a couple days after they were in, the ACL crew was still buzzing about them.

Ronn, any idea as to when The EggMen's episode will be aired?
