Musicians playing the “wrong” instrument

[runstendt]

I’m not sure if this is overlapping with another thread, but what are some pictures of musicians playing an instrument that is not often associated with them? For example, how about an early picture of The Beach Boys with Al Jardine playing a Gibson SG?

Here’s Clapton with a kazoo.

What else you got?

I understand the picture is a set-up. Joe Pass was handed the guitar and the picture was snapped.

Here are a few. Some here may in fact argue these are the "right" guitars!

Except much of George's later recordings WERE with a Casino.....similar to the shown Gibson.
But I get what you're saying.....I associate him mostly with Gretsch's and Rickenbackers.
