Well, I don't think Steve is on this list so I'll answer for him.
It's a DeCola JazzCaster. Former Peavey and current Fender/Guild luithier
Jim Decola built it for Steve a few years ago. I believe it's a alder body
with a beautiful flame maple neck. Fender custom wound Jazzmaster pickups
and vintage strat-style tremolo. The beauty of this guitar is that Jim used
stainless steel frets. Impossible to work with, crazy expensive, BUT never
needing a fret job. Wild!
Steve is currently using a reissue Fender Deluxe Reverb with a reissue
Fender reverb tank (with cap mod & NOS tubes).
I can pass on any other questions you might have...

Very cool -
I also downloaded the tunes - great stuff! :)
Going through the website, I did notice what looks like a Gretsch 6120, but
it's a bass - is it a Nashville bass? Looks pretty awesome and probably
sounds it, too.
Thanks!
-Dick

Thanks!
It's a 1999 Gretsch 6119B Tennessee Rose Bass. Medium scale and unbelievable
tone.
I love that bass!
