Michael McKean on a 345JG, Christopher Guest with a 360/12FG! Not sure of Harry Shearer's bass viol, probably a Kay.

No. Yes. Well yes and no. While "The Folksmen" are a creation of Christopher Guest's fertile imagination, these guys actually DO play their own instruments. And quite well, too! And yes, not only did they once open for "Spinal Tap", they WERE "Spinal Tap"!
