Doing a little image searching, the guitar Lightnin' uses on a number of performances in the Vestapol DVD appears to be a Gibson J-50. Doing a little more digging, I see that it could also be a J-45 as well. Both sported the funky pickguard you can see here and both were in use in the mid 1960s.
Lightnin's guitars (at least the ones we can see on DVDs and images from recording sessions) had sound-hole pickups during the 1960s. The Gibson in the DVD looks to have a single coil pickup mounted with a chrome mounting saddle.
