I mean you are hearing nothing but pickup in that video, you could get that tone with literally any guitar. It looks like a Gibson J-180 with double pickguards, maybe an Everly Brothers reissue type model.

And why would you want to?

Apologies to the OP, but that tone is quite grating to my ears.

Yeah, probably a Gibson J180 or 185. "Small Super Jumbo" Everly Brothers model or similar.

Like most the sound was appalling - which is why i only use microphones now.

I always love to see Roger Daltry with a guitar.

Actually, I always like to see any singer play an instrument when you normally just see them onstage without one.

I prefer his singing over the guitar. And Johnny Cash version Ring Of Fire over his.
