At the beginning of the song what instrument is David Gilmour playing?

Answers: I love Pink Floyd!!!

Steel Guitar if only i knew what he looked like... Yes, it is a steel guitar. He is an absolute master! It actually looks a lot like an autoharp. Some play them flat; some, held up against them. I'm very curious now. However, I saw references to a Fender with a white body.
