"She's Tight" by Cheap Trick, from 1982's One on One.
A comment on the video from You Tube: "Rick Nielson [sic] breaks out his custom 5 neck Hamer guitar for this video. He's criminally underrated as a guitar player and as a songwriter."
Guitar Player: The Story Behind Rick Nielsen's 1981 Hamer Five-Neck.
“Rick’s out of his mind, but in a wonderful way. By 1981, we had already done some pretty wacky stuff for him[.], [said, Hamer’s Frank Untermeyer.]

"For this guitar, we cut apart five double-cutaway Hamer Special bodies and laminated them together, and then sanded in between the necks to get that sort of swoopy look. As I recall, routing the wires through this thing was also a huge pain in the ass.”
