Hi, I found this youtube video last night--David Gilmour Acoustic , live x el cono! x D or the whole concert is David Gilmour Acoustic at Robert Wyatt's Meltdown. If someone could post a link to the first video he is playing the opening to Shine on etc on a gibson lap can.t tell the model but as usual sounds great.

Is this the video you are referring to...

I believe that is a Gibson EH-100. However, I am no expert, so perhaps another Forum member will be able to tell you for sure.

Thanks Chas, that's the preformance. He gets great tone out of everything he plays. He's a great example of a different style of play.

I believe Mr. Gilmour is playing a later model EH-150 with the angled pickup, similar to this one:

Thanks Brad!
I mistook the bridge cover in the video for the pickup cover on an EH-100 pic I found.
