Still wondering if this emoji was named sankara-bass to annoy me personally
That's a fucking guitar, revisionist scum!
Given the time frame when he got it, I think there's a solid chance that it's a USA-made Fender Stratocaster. In other photos, you can tell that it's the non-CBS era headstock, and it has a rosewood fingerboard. The 1954-1958 models only came with maple fingerboards, and the chonky CBS headstocks started in 1965 (through 1981). His band, Tout à coup Jazz, was mostly active in the 70s (with one show in '84), so that is most likely a second-gen Stratocaster (1959-1964) in either Dakota Red or Fiesta Red. That looks like gold hardware, too, which was an available factory option in '59-'64. (If that photo is from '82 or later, then all bets are off, because that was when Fender started producing them in Japan, pre-Squier.)

You might as well be speaking Thai for most of this for how well I follow, but I appreciate the thoroughness of the analysis
