That has to be Hal's pink Telecaster. Not sure if he used it on this tour though

Or it is Hal's butterscotch blonde Telecaster as seen in the Alchemy video whilst playing Sultans and the lightning makes it look pink.

And for user "JF" It's not the same day as Alchemy because John is wearing a white shirt on this pic and a black one on Alchemy. MK's jacket is lightblue-ish on this pic an red on Alchemy etc.

+ I'm 99% sure this is the Sunburst Schecter Dream Machine because the black Strat for "Portobello Belle" is capo'ed on the 3rd fret.
I can't imagine the lightning making his Candy Apple Red Schecter look as black as John's bass.

Only song i could think of needing a wah on this tour is "Industrial Disease" and it's indeed in a fixed position like MFN (on the album at least, maybe MK used it for the end solo, who knows)

Perhaps Mark would drop the capo to play the final solo during PB. It’s pretty plausible since the capo would prevent him from accessing the whole fretboard.

Regarding the wah pedal, it’s just there. That only means he used it during the gig, not necessarily during the song in which the pic was taken.

two different Telecasters.
Hal talk about this pink one on his FB account :

of course :D I know it  :) I said the pic is from june 83 in Paris

I said the same about capo on the black strat  :)

during years I saw very strange colors on many pictures, due to the lightning

if it is the sunburst strat, then it's strange that Hal plays his telecaster... what song would it be ?  :think

of course. never said that.
I just noticed there was a wah pedal and that I was surprised because I thought it was only played on it never rains, and that song was dropped from the setlist at the time the pic was taken.
but indeed it may have been used on industrial disease

I don't know how to quote 1 sentence so i'll do it like this.

You're right. Why is Hal playing the Tele whilst mark is playing the Sunburst Schecter?

Maybe Ingo Raven knows more but he doesn't seem to be on this forum

and I don't think it's the sunburst strat because if it was the case you should see the sunburst tone on the back on the guitar body, not only one color like you see on the pic
and also, the plate on the sunburst strat is chromed/brass not white

I bet it's the red one and the lightning turns it to black on the picture

Not at all, pretty common actually. You use the capo in order to be able to play open chords further up the fretboard. Once you play a solo it becomes a barrier though as you can’t play notes behind the fret the capo is locked on. Get rid of it and reclaim full access to your fretboard. I’ve done it myself countless times when I played live back in the day.

Look where Eric's left hand is, you can see the capo fall down from his guitar.
