Is this an old Capri or 325?

I'm not sure who the other guitar player is but he's playing with Barbara Lynn.

That's Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown and what looks like an old 345 Capri. Doesn't appear to be a 325.

Seen it before but it always brings a smile. Great Capri (and Esquire). Gatemouth!!

I love those old thicker bodied models.
I guess I heard the announcer refer to Clarence Brown but I didn't connect that with "Gatemouth" or that it would be him playing in this clip. Was he a known Rick user?

Cool! I just got turned onto Clarence, but only associated him with his Firebird and that mini-humbucker sound. I'd already seen that clip but didn't know then that was Gatemouth - I was paying more attention to Barbara Lynn.
