Title: Touch of Grey - Bill Graham Memorial Concert

This is nice. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l38YXrGJxx0)  Ran across it this afternoon and thought some of you might like it.  I'm guessing some of you were probably there.

Dave, Check out the 4-5 tunes from that show where John Fogerty sits in with them!!!!!  
 
I first heard this set as a FM broadcast, and to see the footage on YouTube after all these years is simply amazing.

The body sure does have that 'hippy sandwich' look, but the headstock and hardware (including pickups)don't. Body has a profile similar to PRS but the headstock looks almost Dean-like.
 
I don't know . . .  :-(

I'd say Vantage...seen them played on stage, but never a stage that big (heck, that stage is bigger than most of the venues I've seen Vantages in!)

I believe Elwoodblue is correct.  One of the Washburn Wing series, either a Hawk, Falcon or Eagle.  A very sweet neck-thru with some borrowed DNA from the mothership.
 
Bill, tgo

Definitely a Washburn.
