Whoa, the sound of his "new musical instrument" (probably a bass-tuned lap steel) is just as bad as his old bass video. I got through about 30 seconds of it.
Dave, if you had listened further, (especially after 2 min.)you would hear that there are higher more guitarish strings, maybe only one bass string, , In the video I posted above there are more instruments than pictured, and I'd bet Wish laid down the bass and guitar tracks previously. His style seems to favor sliding up the E string, unfortunately you'll have to suffer through a minute and a half of this to see it on what appears to be a Wish fretted guitar.
Completely different, you should be able to take more than 30 seconds of this:
And I apologize for the multiple off topic posts, but this thread should never been in the Rickenbacker forum.
