That is a Takamine, probably a CP-132SC or similar model number. At least that's the model number on my Takamine that looks just like it (except for signatures). His may not have the CP at the beginning, but it's a 132 model. I've seen that whole DVD, and I'm pretty sure that Buster identifies the guitar somewhere along the way. Seems like his students got it for him. I remember that it was the same as mine. Mark Casstevens has one as well, and he played it at CAAS the year they did the Jerry Reed tribute after his passing. They are nice guitars, but I don't particularly like the pickup. In fact, I'm strongly considering switching it out for one of the Barbera pickups like John Knowles has in his Kirk Sand.
