I can't play YouTube in work, but assuming it's Bruce Franklin he normally plays an early '60s SG Junior.

I really like his playing!

Philly - aren't you selling an SG Junior at the moment?

Gratuitous picture opportunity (this one's been seen almost as often as Dave's - then Ian's - old Signature LP)



What a band!

Agreed 100%!  :D

certainly looks like a pretty straight up, stock early 60s SG junior to me. 

I think they changed to the batwing pickguard in '66/'67, and it doesn't appear to have the Les Paul script on the headstock which the '61 - '63 SG's had, so its got to be somewhere between '63 and '66 imo (unless its a reissue).
