It appears to be Rickenbacker & thanks to wowwhatisthatthing for sharing that link.
I have the Blues because when I was 10 my parents bought me The Animals on tour album & after I heard Boom Boom I was hooked. Also Bright lights Big City & The House of the Rising Sun. After hearing these songs I was addicted & as I got older I like everyone else traced back to where these songs had originated never to be let down.
I really like the Gibson SGfor it's dirty sound so prominent in a lot of bands in the late 60's being revived by these so-called punks of the new millenium. Love in Vain on Get yer Ya Ya's out 1969 with Mick Taylor on slide & Keith Richards on Rythmn for the most part using an SG & a Les paul standard sunburst Great silde work on this version.

Haha I'm a bit of guitar nutt
Rickenbacker. It looked like a frying pan with a guitar neck. Not 100% sure on this, but... I'm voting Rickenbacker.
I'm not sure on this one but here is a link that explains a lot about it.

It is an interesting read to say the least.
Charlie Christian is usually credited with first putting a pick up into a guitar.
Les Paul had the first SOLID BODY electric guitar. Mike's Music in Sterling had one of his early models hanging up in there. Les - what a GREAT performer too!
