Happened to come across this. I'll leave it to the experts to tell me what model Tom is playing. Looks pretty thin:

Can't ID the Guild but I'm a fan of TW so thanks for posting this clip.
Loved the story before the song. Typical TW. :apple:

Hello Bob,
That's an M-65 from the second half of the '60s with the pickguard removed.
Sincerely,

Thanks, Hans! I tried looking through the Westerly site pictures, but the M-65 is one of the dead links in their guitar section.

Joe, TW is one of the greats, albeit an acquired taste. Read this description of his voice: "....soaked in a vat of bourbon, left hanging in the smokehouse for a few months, and then taken outside and run over with a car." The story lead in was one of the best I have heard him spin.
