I don't think that was the Streets one... I think I saw a rosewood fretboard?

Guys, I'm looking for a clear snapshot of that Gretsch Duo Jet that Edge is using.
Bonus points for a clear shot of, or info on, the pickups.

On our own gear, a wee shout-out for guitarfetish.com - don't know if any of you guys use/know of them; ordered a pair of overwound humbuckers (called Crunchy Pats), delivery (inc. shipping from US to UK) was c. $50 in total and they've given my dear beloved Explorer a new lease of life. First proper fit-out for any of my guitars, and I can't believe how much difference a good set of p/ups has made (yep, joining the rest of the world), especially a good set of p/ups that haven't torn my bank account a new backside!

I appreciate the post WojBhoy, but I can't find a clean closeup on/of the pickups.
They're FilterTron's but I don't know what kind.

Not sure if it's the same one - he's been playing the Street on several guitars as well throughout the years.

He's also using it for Still Haven't Found, here's a clear view:

These are all newer guitars.
Edge, I think, decided to leave the vintages at home after 360.
Did you see the rain in Russia?

long shot, but does anybody know the record for most guitars used in a single U2 show?

My money is on a Vertigo show.
