I don't know, but his playing is really nice. Maybe one of the Aussie steel pickers?
Redd tearing it up as usual on the tele. Looks like a CC pickup on that one.

Pretty sure that's Tomi Graso from Sydney.
Top class player & nice guy as well.
Go the lefties!  |

Yep, Tommi is a fine, fine steel player. Just for the record, he plays a bit of right handed steel too, not fair really 
Redd is also playing a Tomkins guitar. These are made here in Australia by Alan Tomkins out of native timbers and they usually sport a leather pickguard. Many pickers here play a Tomkins and they are fine instruments. |

Had to chime in here. Fine work by Tomi (as usual). Yes that CC (Charlie Christian) pickup on the Tomkins sure shows up. Dunno whether it's a Lollar or one of Alan's own and could that be Alan Tomkins on bass and under the hat ??? or am I mistaken. His guitars are great especially for live playing they just seem to project out there amazingly - might be the aussie wood?
Oh yeah and Red was fine too but we all know that he looks and sounds better every year.
