Nice! Any clue what model guitar the lead player is using? The headstock logo looks a bit Guild, but it seems to have a P90.

I think it's a Vega, and the PU looks like one of the floating Vega PU's too.

I am so happy to see this Wesley Tuttle video and what an all-star band. I spoke with Wes and Marilyn Tuttle a few times a year over the phone for over 20 years. Nobody could be more friendly and willing to chat about life and their professional life. Jimmie Weindner (sp) has been a favorite singer of mine for many years, I didn't know he played lead guitar so well.
Hwas a vocalist for Spade Cooley and Bob Wills among others. Always liked the sound of Johnny Paul on the fiddle. And Speedy West, what could a guy say about Speedy/
This video is really a treat even my wife enjoyed itl

I can't help but wonder what year that clip was made? That is a very cool old track!!

Jim:

Tuttle recorded that song circa September 1949, so the film was probably done no later than 1950-51.
