Check out the girls website:

WWW.SKYLARTHOMAS.COM 

and listen to her OZZY Tribute band videos. She is using the Yamaha CS-60. You can here the ribbon slide on Crazy Train and also uses the CS-60 through all the songs along with Mr. Crowley too. I think the original Mr. Crowley was recorded with a CS-80. 

The girl rocks! I see an early future for her.
