In the photo is Ricky Wilson using a Vilette Citron "The Shark" (originally mistaken to be a Guild Thunderbird due to the body shape) painted bright yellow.
Typically, Ricky used this guitar on the 1983 tour for "Big Bird" tuned to probably the most wacky tuning he ever used - D#AC#xBD# - kind of funny since it's a "Thunderbird" derived design.- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lijGzY4A5gc
There's a better view of it in the music video for "Legal Tender" - the guitar appears on the spinning show rack at 1:42 - You can kind of see how wacky the tuning had to be on this thing so it's probably in Thunderbird Tuning here as well- https://youtu.be/mBRr_TqLDf4?t=1m43s
