I can't zoom in at all to get a good read, but based on my knowledge, considering the body shape, the placement of the pickups, and the design of the headstock, I am pretty confident that it is either a "Fender Telecaster" or an imitation of one. Two pickup design from what I can see with his hand in the way, with a slanted one at the bridge, straight one at the neck, thinner the usual headstock with an iconic design, the volume, tone, and pickup selector knobs are in the right place with the usual chrome hardware behind them. I would say regular 6 string electric guitar, though I guess someone has to have make a bass that looks like a Telecaster at some point?

Typically they have a pick guard going from the bridge pickup towards the neck and then downwards that this one is missing, and a little more flare on the top end of the body towards the neck that this one is more subtle about, so either it's an odd year model, or a knock off, which is super common because it is an iconic style of guitar.

My bet would be on a look-alike, but since I can't zoom in at all to do more than a guess from a long distance but it's still cool!
