Hey Garytelecaster:

That is the only shot I got. It is a cell phone photo. Don't know the players name either. Will make an inquiry. A friend from Chicago I used to pick with sent it to me thinking I could ID the ax. Control pots, toggle (coil splits?) and bridge should help.

Any chance this is a Bongo 6 from Music Man? Perhaps an older one?

It's a Music Man Bongo.
This is a bass but they make 6 & 7 Strings as well.
