He used to play a lot of old Kent guitars too the ones with tons of binding on the side that look like a layer cake.

The pickguard on the bottom one.. isn't it the guard off a Wurlitzer gemini?

Metal plates added for the new controls, and the bottom horn cut off. But the top horn and the shape round the bridge look the same. Maybe a guitar made from parts or something.


EDIT..

Actually.. nah. The top horn looks a bit different. hmmmm

It could be this Wurlitzer baritone guitar, same body shape and pickguard style etc. like the bass. This website is good:
