SCTV Episode #85 of July 17, 1981 (Disc 4 of the DVD first season set) has two performances by Roy Orbison. He performs "Oh, Pretty Woman" and "Workin' for the Man". His band consists of 2 additional guitar players, bass, drums, piano and tamborine.

Roy himself is playing a white '70s Fender Stratocaster through a silver-badged Music Man 210 model. His primary back-up guitar player is playing a Yamaha SG2000 through a silver-badged Music Man 212 model. The third guitar player (on a Les Paul) COULD be using a Music Man amp but you can never clearly see enough of his amp to tell for sure (it looks like either Music Man or Fender).

The bass player (on a Fender Precision) COULD be using a Music Man 115 cabinet, but the grill badge looks more like it is white rather than silver so it is probably some other brand.
