In this photo a HH combo amplifier is visible. A careful comparison of the number of dials (11 in total) reveals that it must be a VS-Musician and cannot be an IC100 or IC100-S. To further corroborate this what appears to be the Valve sound pedal can be seen on top of the amp. This pedal was only used with the VS-Musician line of amps.

A review of the Buzzcocks 1978 OGWT further confirms that the number of dials is indeed 11 and shows more clearly a lack of far-right inputs on the amp which is consistent with the VS-Musician and not with the IC100, or IC100-S.

Please note: the generic image of the amp on Equipboard is of a later model. This later model has a different number of dials.
