Any more pics like this out there??

I'm sure that there are… But probably not tons. You can see it in any of the 2009 you tube vids of "Moment Of Surrender".

It might be the same guitar as the "Please" video. But I'd have to look at more pics and compare to the video.

The guitars is a 1959 6101 (Stereo) Country Club.

It was used for one song. It was used for 1-2 legs of the tour and then put away.

I wouldn't list it as one of Edge's iconic guitars. Not a bad guitar for certain. But not one of his most favored.

That said, here is another shot of that guitar -

Looks like that might be the Gretsch 6101 Stereo Country Club in the 'Please' Video.

Check the video clip at about 3:10
