Mark sez: I've seen John play in three ensembles: Jack DeJohnette's Directions (twice) and with Ralph Towner playing the Sargasso Sea material. So sad he's left us.
Had the good fortune to see Abercrombie 3 times. Went to a tribute show for him at Birdland and had the privilege of sitting at the table next to his widow. I miss him.
Hey Jody! I have your books and have learned so much from you. Thank you! This was a nice surprise finding you are hosting these videos! This account is my wife Ann's. I am Mark in Fishers (nice coincidence!) Indiana (northeast suburb of Indianapolis).
First guitar is a Brian Moore. Second guitar is custom-made by Rick McCurdy. Definitely not a Sadowsky. John played Sadowsky guitars, but neither of these were Sadowsky models.
Absolutely love Abercrombie! Thanks so much for sharing this piece of history.
A true improviser. Humble and honest.

What kind of guitar is John playing??
I believe it is a Sadowsky solid body that he had just acquired.....
