Catfish Collins

Catfish's 1969 Jazzmaster is featured in this June 20, 2020 Fender video at 1:54, showing it to be in the possession of his brother Bootsy.

Ah yeah, my big brother Catfish Collins. He was a big fan of the Fender brand as well. He loved, at this time that we was with James Brown, he loved the Fender Jazzmaster. Actually, this is the original 1969 that he played on The James Brown Show. The difference is he colored it after we left James Brown because we were goin' with Funkadelic and he colored it in blue. I asked him "What was that all about?" He had no clue, he just started laughin'. You know, but this is the original guitar, the Fender Jazzmaster. When you see Cat playin' with James Brown, this will be in a sunburst because that's what the original color was. Catfish was on the one.

In this video Collins' guitar can easily be identified as a Vox V268 Ultrasonic, taking into account the palm-wah behind the bridge, as opposed to the Cheetah, which does not include one.
