  2. The guitar you show on the side is not the same Perry Bechtel model Dick was referring to anyway. The one you show has a slotted headstock and was made years after the concert, after research showed Bechtel's lost Martin had a slotted head.

    The Perry Bechtel model Boak referred to can be seen here
