Artist usage

Small size, hollow body guitar. Made in Japan in the '60s, sold under the name 'GHI', probably a Teisco offshoot.
Description of guitar is also found in The Guardian interview:
"The most unlikeliest cult star of the Noughties was born: an ex-itinerant pensioner who played the shit out of a three-stringed guitar miked up with gaffer tape.
'I was shocked, man,' he says now, laughing his big throaty laugh and tugging on that long beard. 'It wasn't a good performance. I couldn't see nobody, couldn't hear nobody. I just threw my old guitar down at the finish in frustration. Then, all hell broke loose."
