There was apparently a KJ tribute night in Poland this past Wednesday - I remember seeing the flyer but I don't read Polish, so
there you go. There is a bunch of new video on YouTube and I thought it was interesting that the guitarist uses both the Gibson
ES295 and Geordie's pre-Gibson, early 80's gear for the appropriate songs. I thought it was a nice touch.
 
Some of the gearheads here should be able to shed some light on what is actually being used, but I appreciate the tribute band's
attempt at authenticity

Looking at the clips (there's 7 of 'em) it appears the guy playing the ES295 is a different guitarist to the one playing the SG on
the early tunes. The guy playing the ES295 even smokes a cigarette an has thinning hair like Geordie, it's kinda funny. They both
appear to be playing through a typical recent vintage Marshall (Valvestate?) rig. The keyboard player sings on a couple songs and
is marginally better than the frontman who reads his lyrics off a sheet and is pretty terrible.
