Based on this info, I'm thinking maybe it's not a guitar at all:

"What emerged is a well-tempered combination of Bedhead's delicate, guitar-based slumber pop and Macha's gamelan-influenced aural landscapes. Instead of layered guitars filling out Bedhead's sparse arrangements, we have Javanese zither, Thai xylophone, vibraphone, and even a telephone on the keypad love elegy, "Believe."

The above excerpt was taken from this article:

I am a big Pixies fan. Havalina is a great song. Did you know that a Havalina is a pig? Puts a new twist on the song.

Not sure what kind of amp Joey Santiago played, but Black Francis (Frank Black) usually plays a Fender Telecaster through a Vox amp.

If you know something better than Rock and Roll, I'd like to hear it - Jerry Lee Lewis
