Here is one for you guitar experts. What is the white electric guitar that Eugene Vees is playing behind Joseph Reinhardt in the photo below? Could it be the famous white Epiphone that Django is playing about 10 years earlier in the lower photo?

    Here is another sadly poor quality photo of Eugene Vees guitar:-

    If you have the photo image try photoshop and zoom in and enhance the pixils til you can read the headstock

    From both photos, it does look like an Epiphone to me. I can make out the Epi badge on the headstock in the second photo (hidden behind Nin-Nin in the first). It might be impossible to say if it is the exact same guitar as Django was playing in the other photo, but it certainly appears similar. It is also reminiscent of the Epiphones that Les Paul used as a platform for his modifications.
