The double-wide necked guitar this dude is playing...what the heck is it? It looks like a Chapman Stick, but it also looks like he's playing it like a guitar...

I was looking at the girl until she started singing, then lost interest and got to stare at what he was playing.
I'm fairly sure that's a Stick, yes. He's just playing it all bass-akwards.

It's a Warr Guitar.

Edit: They're made to be able to be played in a variety of ways. I've seen Trey Gunn play one with a pick, or like a piano with the guitar placed horisontally on a keyboard stand.
