Actually, it's an Epiphone "Zephyr," E-311TN "natural." About 1961-64.

Broadways were deeper, and larger bodied.

The Zephyr, in that clip, is a thinline, with the rounded bottom upper

(cutaway) bout, 2 mini-humbucers, trapeze tailpiece, etc.

Hard to beat John Lee Hooker...

 

I remember hearing him on my old console radio in the '50s. Made a big impression.
