JUST BECAUSE...
The live performances in this video were captured at the 2023 Fretboard Summit, which is put on by ‪@fretboardjournal‬. If you're thinking about going to the 2024 Fretboard Summit, I highly encourage it – soo much fun!!!  https://fretboardsummit.org/

In this video, Bill is seen playing a Collings Guitar that was floating around the Fretboard Summit.  I don't know the exact model, but everybody loved it.  You can probably poke around the ‪@CollingsGuitars‬ website and find out more: https://www.collingsguitars.com/
