I'm sure this has been discussed - but man, look at him GO!

Fantastic playing!

What color could this be? Obviously a metallic... Can we narrow down a year this is to see if we can rule out certain colors?

There’s another clip on youtube from the same show, where he plays Folsum Prison Blues. It says the show is from 1964.

I’m gonna say Shoreline gold.

If it is indeed 1964 the only metallic it could be:

Lake Placid Blue
Shoreline Gold
Burgundy Mist
Sherwood Green
Inca Silver
Candy Apple Red
