This appears to be another new Custom Shop Telecaster alongside the Acoustasonic used on Help Me Stranger. It has a similar orange and black color scheme, with black hardware and what appears to be a single coil-P90-humbucker layout, the bridge is a unique design of unknown origin (at least to me). The humbucker in the neck position, clearest at 1:47 appears to be a Fender design humbucker, likely a Wide Range from a Custom/Deluxe

In this June 6, 2019 Premier Guitar article, The Raconteurs The Power of Two, Jack White says: "This album, I actually had that gold Fort Knox Les Paul, and I had a new Fender Champ amp. I thought I’d try it. I’d never actually done that with the Les Paul through this tiny little amp. For that guitar solo, it was like, “Oh my god, it sounds so good!” I just thought, of course, this is why everybody does this. It’s hilarious that I’ve avoided this my whole life."
'The sidebar list of Jack White's gear describes it as a: "1980s Fender Champ."
