Beautiful. I have been a Hot Tuna fan since the early 70s, especially the acoustic stuff; this is wonderful even by himself and without Jack on bass. The Ovation sounds fine using its pickup. Also note the early Adamas on a stand to the right at the beginning of the song. I do recall that the Ovation Tribute site had some docs showing Jorma as an endorser back in the mid 70s, but I had not seen him previously playing one live. Note, while this is fingerpicking blues, he is playing on a standard neck width (not wide neck Folklore) instrument, and he uses his left thumb for damping and fretting notes.

Clint Is an amazing and clean player. Freddy was a friend we lost a few years back after a long and cruel fight with Parkinson's. Freddy was an avid Ovation player and was directly responsible for the Austin City clips with friends like Merle and Wille playing Ovations.

Very nice playing indeed. I think I have to enter the Jorma world - don't know anything about him and his music.

I could never get past the bad posture and flailing elbows. That is why Bob and Jerry made primetime despite the dilated eyes. Sit up straight kids!
