From '67, maybe? Stephen Stills is playing a Guild, at 55 seconds and after it's pretty clear. I assume his Duane Eddy?

Yeah that's the notorious Hollywood Palace "For What It's Worth/Mr. Soul" medley.
Why "notorious"?
From Wiki:
"The band moved back and forth between recording sessions and live appearances on both coasts. A number of different bassists were used, such as Mike Barnes and Jim Fielder of The Mothers of Invention. In one instance – a live performance on the television show Hollywood Palace – Springfield's road manager, who couldn't play bass, held a bass with his back to the camera while the band mimed to a prerecorded track"
Why the bassist round-robins?
"In January 1967, the group took an advance from the record company and flew to New York to perform at Ondine's, a club where The Doors would also play. It was at this time that Palmer was first arrested for possession of marijuana and summarily deported back to Canada."
Why is it always the bass player?
'Cause they're not playin' with a full set, so to speak?Why is it always the bass player?

WHY does it always have to be about size?Set of what? Strings? 6 vs. 4? OK. But mine are longer and thicker. And my truss rod is bigger, too.
Ok coming back in your defense I'll trot out that old chestnut about the bass player I knew who was a better guitarist than most folks I know, and that Noel Redding was guitarist who accepted a bass-player role for the sake of the job, and that Ronnie Wood did the same for Jeff Beck in the original Jeff Beck Group, before going back to guitar with Faces and the Rolling Stones.Actually I have learned to embrace the idea that the bassist is often the worst guitar player in the band, because if they weren't then they'd be playing guitar.
I knew I was forgetting somebody!And - Jimmy Page played bass in The Yardbirds at first, mainly to get into the band
Never heard that before,,,,thanks.....Keith gets some serious woof/woof/thud, whop on the bass.Here's Keith on bass, with John Lennon on guitar/vocals, Mitch Mitchell on drums, and Eric Clapton on lead guitar. The classic "Rock and Roll Circus" performance of "Yer Blues".
