Trish's family bought this covers album back in the late 60s. What's the guitar?

I was thinking Kay, so thank you for pointing out Stratotone; this seems to be it

Seems kind of odd for a UK album, but maybe it was a stock photo.

I had one just like that, only black with gold flake.

Fun little guitars, necks are so fat they're usually still straight. Pickups are really low output.
