Spent the whole time trying to decide whether the VI is maple or mahogany, lol. (leaning ever so slightly towards maple, lol). Looks like 1970-ish, as it has a floating bridge and the old starburst truss rod cover. Guessing it's been retrofitted from Bigsby to harp, since it's sporting the Bigsby bridge and the harp-tail ones didn't really become the norm until the mid/late 1970s. I thought both guys sounded like they had those Fender amps set a little too wooly/spongy for my liking. Always felt like Fenders got kind of mushy if you turned the bass up much past 3 or so and really shone brightest (pun semi-intended?) with the treble dimed, middle around 5 or so and bass around 2. Of course, you never know how true to life the sound quality is on stuff that's made it to YouTube and may have been recorded off a cell phone or digital camera.
