Seasick Steve

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."

Seasick Steve is known for using a variety of amplifiers, including the Roland Cube-30X Guitar Amplifier, as seen in a user-uploaded photo on Flickr. While he often performs with vintage Fender amps, such as a Twin and a Deluxe, he is also spotted using compact battery-powered amps like the Vox and Danelectro Honeytone during interviews.

Seasick Steve built this guitar with a hubcap given to him by jack white, as explained in the video.

It's not only what Seasick Steve is playing, it's also what he is playing on. No fancy luxery dream-guitar for Steve on stage, Seasick does his act mostly on a cheap or self-constructed guitar. One of these guitars he became famous with, is the "cigar box" guitar, a well beloved object for photographers. This guitar sounds amazing, and only has four strings.
