Is this a Gretsch guitar

This is Paul Yandell playing with the
Louvin Brothers, he appears about the middle of this video.
Anybody know what type of guitar and pickup he`s using.
What a great act those two guys were, they don`t make them like that anymore.
Ricky Scaggs put me off Bluegrass until i heard them.

Looks like a Chet Atkins Country Gentleman.

Lots of photos but nothing exactly like that (that I could see).

Bet he wishes he still had it.

P.S. yes it's a Gretsch, it's written on the scratchplate

Thanks lads, it looked familiar, i played rhythm backing to a good friend who had one of these back in the early sixties.
