Norah Jones was playing one tonight on Jools Holland, don't ask me what song it was as I was listening to something else while the wife watched it. Sure you can see it on iPlayer if you want to

Probably $650-750 on Ishibashi or at guitar shops. Maybe less on the private market.

Talking Heads usually had a duosonic or a mustang in the recording stage. I don't know about live, but they were used in studio.
Listen to the entire album Remain in Light.

I like that a lot. They're clearly very heavily influenced by the Boom Boom Satellites (not a bad thing really), but there's a bit of the guitar vs. synth chaos of 65DaysOfStatic in there too. Very much relevant to my interests. Cheers for the link!
