I just watched the show and was wondering the same thing. It was wondering if it might have been a Maton.

I watched last night and I seem to recall that it was a Gibson of some sort.

What a great illustration of what I consider to be the quintessential "modern" acoustic guitar sound! At least that's the sound I hear in my head that I think I'm chasing. Full with good bass suppport. The brightness is created with resultant harmonics, almost like a 12 string. If I had that guitar I don't know that I'd need any others.

What is it?

My vote is J200, mainly due to the neck inlays and fancier pickguard.

I watched the video and I didn’t hear any acoustic tone. Just heard peizio tone. Couldve used a First Act from Wallysword, would’ve sounded exactly the same with the same electronic set-up.

May be. On the other hand, the keyboard sounded like a Casio, so the recorded mix may have just been lacking.
