It is hard to know for sure but it does sound similar with the technique he is using to play.

'follower controlling a band pass filter ' would give a similar result, but the effect in the song is so irregular and natural it must be a talkbox.

Stevie was also big into layering tracks so linde's idea of bass guitar and moog together seems likely.

It could very well be both a bass guitar and a moog, looking at the personnel list Lazerbeat posted.

Stevie was a biiiiig talkbox user. in the late 60s to earlymid 70's. He went kind of, Little Stevie wonder, BADASS STEVIE WONDER, Ballad stevie wonder.

Seriously is there ANYTHING cooler than this video?
