Mack and The Thomas Indian Family band taken from a photo on the back of their LP "Instrumental Music of The Thomas Indian Family - Volume 2". A very young Mack Thomas is seated behind his pedal Bigsby and is playing through a 15" speaker Rickenbacker amp. His father, Johnson B. Thomas is holding a double neck Bigsby standard guitar...top neck appears to be a mandolin neck. The liner notes mention that Mack took lessons from Sol Hoopii and was one of Sol's star pupils.
