Some very old RF smooth as silk playing!  And that tone!.  Just phenomenal!!

Not to mention the very hip 80's fashions!

No doubt he is an awesome player. Wish I had time to watch the entire video! Thanks for posting it.

What guitar is he playing? I don't recognize it... to my eyes the logo on the headstock almost looks like it says Fender... could it be...?

I just glanced at the guitar and assumed it was an LP.  I never knew such a Fender animal existed!  I have to believe Robben Ford is most famously known for playing his Tele for blues.
